Four-time Tour de France champion Chris Froome is the favourite to win cycling’s Vuelta a Espana – which gets underway today.

Froome has finished second three times, in 2011, 2014 and 2016, and hopes to emulate Jacques Anquetil in 1963 and Bernard Hinault in 1978 in winning the Tour and Vuelta in the same year.

He’s determined to win the event this year.
