Roglic wins the Dauphine - aided by key Aussie Hindley

Australian Jai Hindley is a cycling champ in his own right - but the former Giro d'Italia winner has been delighted to play a key support role in helping Primoz Roglic lift one of the sport's big prizes, the Criterium du Dauphine.

Hindley's efforts as one of Roglic's chief lieutenants allowed the Slovenian luminary to take the title on Sunday by just eight seconds after a final-stage scare in the week-long race which has so often been a good pointer to who may win the Tour de France.

Now Hindley, who wore the Tour de France yellow jersey briefly last year as team leader for BORA-hansgrohe, will be in Roglic's corner again as a super domestique when the Tour kicks off in Florence at the end of June.
