See Nico didn't make the final line up for Team Sky, a surprise?

Not a surprise really. He always rides two grand tours a year, did the Giro for the first time this year and prefers the Vuelta to the Tour. Declaring for the national champs was a bit of a hint too.

As soon as he was named in the Giro I knew he wasn't riding the Tour this year. I reckon he was asked to the Giro as he changed his schedule before hand. May now get a chance to lead in Spain
