Chris Boardman: 'Bradley Wiggins can win Tour de France'

Chris Boardman believes that Bradley Wiggins has the ability to win the Tour de France this year.

Former British cyclist Chris Boardman believes that Bradley Wiggins has all the credentials to win the Tour de France this year.

Wiggins stepped up his preparation for the event by claiming first place in the recent Paris to Nice in competition.

"I think this will be his best ever chance to win it," Boardman told BBC Sport. "Physically and mentally he's in great shape and has the team support.

"There is more time-trialling in the Tour than there has been in the past, so this could be Bradley's year."

Wiggins became the first British competitor to win the Paris to Nice title in 45 years.
