Movistar director tips Froome and Contador for overall Vuelta title

Movistar’s director Eusebio Unzue says that while the team’s leader, Alejandro Valverde is in great shape for this year’s Vuelta A España, his rivals Chris Froome (Sky) and Alberto Contador (Saxo Bank - Tinkoff Bank) are in better condition. Valverde has won two stages in addition to the team’s victory in the opening team time trial but Unzue says he will still lose time during the 39.4km individual test on stage 11.
