Looking at this Evans could have easily been beaten. Not very confident of him keeping his lead tomorrow.

 

[Ryo Hazuki]

Fränk Schleck is 50 seconds back though.

Okay, bad example.

22 seconds

 

[El Pistolero]

How did Frank Schleck lose 50 seconds in a prologue?

Is he sick or does he really suck that much?

 

[roundabout]

Riblon for the overall

 

[theyoungest]

22 seconds

Yeah, twitter misinformation again.

 

[cineteq]

Fränk Schleck is 50 seconds back though.

6.5km @ -22sec...Foreshadowing what it's to come in this year TdF.
RSNT is still time to change your plans and send the bros. to the Giro

 

[maltiv]

So even with all the new signings, BMC still has to rely on only one man to bring in all the results.

I doubt Evans will hold on to the GC lead though, he is usually quite bad in long climbs when his form isn't perfect.

 

[dlwssonic]

that was a pure mental thing that final itt and thet he recuperates well because of the no needle policy. he has a strong body

He certainly improved, he was only a few seconds away from tony and was way ahead of everyone behind. Yeah he recuperates well like Andy. No needle policy??

 

[hrotha]

Well Im mostly saying that from his brilliant performance in the last TT in 2011 TDF, you can't argue about that it was a really strong performance. He also won the Romandie tour through a strong performance in the TT.

Well, I thought you mean since last season. I'm still not convinced though.

 

[Eyeballs Out]

Riblon for the overall

Yeah I'd agree with that. Excellent TT result after his crash this morning

 

[maltiv]

How much did Nordhaug lose?

 

[hatcher]

How much did Nordhaug lose?

13 seconds. Came in 27th.

 

[18-Valve. (pithy)]

Duarte going suprisingly well...

 

[UselessToo]

27. NORDHAUG Lars-Peter 31 SKY PROCYCLING 07' 34" + 00' 13"

pretty good

 

[roundabout]

How much did Nordhaug lose?

13 seconds

[theyoungest]

How much did Nordhaug lose?

13 secs. Okay result. Not worth two weeks of TT training though.

 

[dlwssonic]

Are there time bonuses for tomorrows stage?
Evans better suck riblons wheel really well tomorrow

 

[dlwssonic]

Well, I thought you mean since last season. I'm still not convinced though.

He will prove it to you this years TDF and crush wiggo in the overall.

 

[Frosty]

Appeared on the official site pretty quickly too

[Ryo Hazuki]

duarte 18 seconds to evans. not bad imo. maybe he is in better shape now. despite his lack of a good base. he is a rare talent

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

what about nordhaug and froome,nothing?

not a surprise from cadel,he always makes form out of nothing,he will do well tomorrow too

http://www.letour.fr/2012/CRI/LIVE/us/200/classement/index.html

Both did reasonably. Rowe in young riders jersey.
