Well with Froome in 60th place in the Dauphine, he can be a mid pack domestique. I can't see how he magically gains enough fitness in 2.5 weeks to be a team leader of any kind. The first week of the TdF out of Nice is full gas in the mountains. Seems like he can go to the TdF for training for the Giro while being TdF waterboy.
I doubt heāll be selected. Even though he could be useful as āthe weakest linkā on Ineos, I doubt heāll want to do it, when Thomas won, he was at least a contender. Even if heās riding as per his plan, heāll simply not be ready for. Thomas Will be selected, But he wonāt be a contender - he looks heavy. Ineos wants to win the tour with Bernal and in my eyes heās the favourite - i Think roglic Will peak too early, so surely thereās no room for someone focussing on another race, the tour is not a race where you prepare for somthing else. Froome May be ready for the Vuelta, But I doubt weāll se him on the podium in a GT ever again. At this point, I donāt see him playing a role in the Giro. Maybe next year, But heās too old, not really comparable injuries, But look where wout Van aert is right now compared to Froome. Froome simply isnāt recovering fast enough.
