After defending champ Chris Froome crashed out of the Tour de France in Stage 5, it seemed that it was wide open as to who could take the yellow jersey.
Now, it's even more so as 2-time champ Alberto Contador has crashed out of Stage 10
Anyone...???

Defending Champ Froome Crashes Out Of Tour
((HT: TdF/NBCSN))
Chris Froome should have just been called "Schleprock" for everything that went down in the last two stages of the Tour de France. He crashed in the sunshine in Stage 4 and crashed himself out of the race this year with two wrecks in Stage 5.
NBCSN recaps his quick tour of the Tour...
Today's Stage 5 was the first time in ten years or so that the race got the cobblestone streets in muddy conditions that resemble the Paris-Roubaix section from older times. Cobblestones are one thing, but the muddy, slippery cobbles are an entirely different animal entirely.
But to have it happen this early is huge...
The favorite for the remainder of the race is anyone's guess...
