2013 Tour de France, stage 17: Embrun / Chorges 32 km (ITT)

[Lord Stanley]

I can see Sagan doing well here too.

Also my prediction but he said he would take it easy.

 

[el chava]

Peraud continues despite fracture.

I can see Sagan doing well here too.

Why would he?

Makes little sense.

Green is secured. get to Paris and sprint on Champs Ekysee is now priority one.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Castro will be a good marker for Quintana later.

 

[Bavarianrider]

Tooooooooooooooooooooooooooonyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy, Go go go go

does tepstra's slow performance (5'+ on westra) mean anything for TM's performance?

 

[Pulpstar]

We will see v shortly if this is a Quintana or a Martin course. Looks the former to me. Ofc any course is fine for Froome !

does tepstra's slow performance (5'+ on westra) mean anything for TM's performance?

No. Terpstra can't climb.

Yepp, that's why many guys will witch on their TT bike for that last section.

So far I've only read Tony M. will do that.

any news regarding rain?

Veelers likely too miss time limit today, could be costly come Paris

If somebody puts in a truly amazing time, Cav could be going home.

 

[LaFlorecita]

Hope Tony's bike switch won't cost him the stage. Go Panzerwagen!!!

 

[Bakhjulet]

The only thing that can stop Froome from winning today is a wet descent.

 

[Pulpstar]

I'd be amazed if Cav missed the cut. Hilariously Sky would be down to 5 men if he did though.

what do you guys think of paulinho's result. he was first in second timecheck, but is around 5th in the final result.

too much effort in the beginning or poor descenting skills?

Stannard and Lopez are slower than Cav (if that is what you were wondering about!)

In what kind of parallel British universe do you live?

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Roy with 2nd best time at finish +58s.

Kittel still 5th.

Who?? Wha?? Really??

this is 2013, not 2012

 

[l.Harm]

Don't think he will miss the limit

if my maths right someone would have to do 47:15 dont think CN's servers would ever recover if Froome or even Bertie/Quintana did that time.
