DUESSELDORF, Germany (Reuters) - Colombian Nairo Quintana says he will be have to be adopt a more "daring" approach if he is to win the Tour de France for the first time this year.

Movistar's Quintana came in for some criticism during the Giro d'Italia for not attacking hard enough and with a Tour route that does not necessarily suit his strengths he will have his work cut out to unseat Britain's Chris Froome.
