Tour de France champion Sir Bradley Wiggins geared for Giro

The 2012 Tour de France champion Sir Bradley Wiggins is setting his sights on victory at the Giro d'Italia, with team-mate Chris Froome set to lead Team Sky at the Tour de France.

The Kenyan-born Froome is "honoured" to be leading "not just any team, but quite a special team" at this year's event.

Team boss Sir David Brailsford believes that having "two of the world's best riders in tip-top condition" will give Sky a "tactical advantage" when the Tour begins five weeks after the Giro d'Italia.
