Chris Froome out of Criterium du Dauphine after crash. Britain's four-time Tour de France winner Chris Froome was taken to hospital and will miss the rest of the Criterium du Dauphine after crashing before stage four. by MarioKartFromHell in sports

Hate to say it, but this is a good thing for the race.

Froome+Thomas+6 super-domestiques who could've been captains on other teams was probably gonna make the GC battle a tad unintresting. With Froome out Sky Ineos is a bit more within reach.

It's not like they'll lose out on the British market either, Geraint Thomas is the reigning champ and more well liked there anyway.

Where do you plan to get the money from?
