Tour de France 2012: Bradley Wiggins aims to stay out of trouble as Mark Cavendish gears up for stage win You just can't take any chances. Everyone realises where the safest place to ride is. Team Sky's primary concern is Wiggins' ambition of being the first British Tour winner in Paris on July 22. The 32-year-old Londoner remained second in the overall standings, seven seconds adrift of Fabian Cancellara (RadioShack-Nissan) and 10 seconds ahead of seventh-placed Cadel Evans (BMC Racing), the defending champion. The triple Olympic champion is feeling strong. He added: "I'm second in the Tour de France. You risk de-training a bit in this first week because it's so easy in the peloton, you're literally doing nothing at times. It was nice for me to be able to hit the front and open up a little bit. The plan was justified as another late crash fractured the field with around 3km to go before Greipel triumphed for the second successive day. Cavendish, bruised following his fall 24 hours earlier, was fifth, as, for the second successive day, he was denied the opportunity to draw level with Lance Armstrong and Andre Darrigade on 22 stage wins. Another opportunity should arise in Metz.
