2013 Tour de France, Stage 4: Nice / Nice 25km (TTT)

[Big Doopie]

Also a note, the UCI doesn't allow national itt champs jerseys on TTT.

Just the UCI being the UCI i guess. . . . bunch of idiots

But will OPQ be wearing rainbows?

Agreed with your last point 100%.

That's odd, pretty sure I saw some national itt jerseys in the TTTs at Trentino, I could be mistaken though.
Start is in one hour, correct? Not sure about CET...

 

[Big Doopie]

Sky will win even though it is just Froome and Porte doing all the work.

While I agree with the above statement, isn't that innuendo, Parrulo?

 

[Pulpstar]

Can OPQS catch Argos ?

Stream btw: http://cricfree.tv/euro-sports.php

AS TTT world champs they have some sort of logo on the jersey.

That's the only thing allowed for them as well.

ES is on:

No Kittel?

 

[BigC24]

I wonder how BMC will do today. Both Cadel and TJ are solid in the individual TTs.

 

[DenisMenchov]

No Kittel?

Why would he need to finish with the team?

They won't, they have some kind of patch on their jersey that says their the world TTT champs.

 

[One Man Grupetto]

Add in Navarro for Cofidis.

 

[TeoSheva]

[DenisMenchov]

[Roderick]

Why is Tony not wearing his WC-shirt?

EDIT: Or Chava not wearing his French champion- shirt?

 

[Big Doopie]

gc...?

 

[DenisMenchov]

and Rui Costa for Movistar as well

Isn't he not feeling well?

 

[Afrank]

Not worn in TTT.

 

[Roderick]

Not worn in TTT.

Since when actually?

 

[Parrulo]

Isn't he not feeling well?

He hurt his hand on the first day crash but it was only a small cut. He is feeling good now.

 

[Ruudz0r]

Is there a site where we can see all split times + final times? (I know there are no splits known yet but for in a few minutes?)

 

[woodie]

Since when actually?

Since this year I think, since they have a separate competition at the world champs for ITT and TTT

EDIT: Why is Ted King not on a TT bike????

 

[Parrulo]

[Pulpstar]
