MARSEILLE, France (Reuters) - Chris Froome's rivals would be well advised to work on their time trialling abilities if they want to win the Tour de France while the Briton is still dominating, according to three-time champion Greg LeMond.

The Team Sky rider all but wrapped up a fourth title on Saturday after beating Rigoberto Uran and Romain Bardet comprehensively in the final solo effort against the clock, having already started with an advantage after the opening time trial in Duesseldorf.
