Would Dyneema fabrics have prevented or at least reduced road rash?

Insane speeds. Fastest TTT ever?

Yes great film by GCN. Very, very sad how clueless Lappartient appears to be on this topic. Trentin, however, is spot on about everything he says 👍

Looks cool indeed. I wonder if race organizers could do something like that in an evening prologue (or inside a building). Then showing each riders in slow-mo passing through. I know it's just a gimmick, but it would really add some good visuals for TTs if done right.

You missed the Malaysian guy who was second on a Langkawi stage. Happiest 2nd place this year!

Langellotti Poland stage 6 comes to mind. Other than that? Only Wout in Paris and Skjelmose's Amstel will be remembered for 2025. (Ok maybe Ventoux, too) Edit: Powless at Dwars MUST be remembered! 😆

Youngest monument top 10 since ... ?

Bora too strong

All of them. No bronze medalist. 😆

Just move it to an authoritarian state. No protesters. "Everybody" happy

Just like they did with Paris - Dakar. Call it "La Vuelta" and have it held in Kasachstan or wherever the money is.

Who were the last riders of an invited team to achieve a podium in a GT? Horner? Cobo?

I don't know if this already been discussed/ announced here: Will the GP Montreal be held in 2026? WCRR a week later at the same place?

This prologue was quite nice actually. Can the real race start now, please?

Plot twist: It will be a foot race. No bikes allowed! (But still a TT!) This way, we actually might get some time gaps!
