Spain's Alejandro Valverde thinks riders who fly back to their hotels by helicopter in the Tour of Spain have an unfair advantage.
On today's rest day, Valverde said: "It's not the same getting to your hotel in half an hour in a helicopter as taking nearly three hours in a bus. That's a big difference."
Chris Froome and Sir Bradley Wiggins will lead a strong Britain squad for the UCI Road World Championships in Italy later this month.
