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

[Warhawk]

Garmin couldn't beat Lotto?

Sheesh.

 

[roundabout]

Maybe it's because of Dan, but I did not expect them to lose to Lotto

 

[spalco]

Who gets the yellow if OPQS wins here? (yes, I'm too lazy to look it up and rather just ask here)

 

[Publicus]

Omega-Quickstep would have destroyed teams if Martin was 100% healthy

 

[Jelantik]

oh my.. who da' thought.. lotto belisol.. beat garmin!!!

 

[Afrank]

Will they up the tempo once G is gone?

They'll probably up the pace in the final part, don't think their conserving to make sure he can hang with them though.

Chavanel or Kwiatkowski i imagine

 

[uconnryan]

Poor Garmin, OPQS time might be tooooo good!

 

[goggalor]

Garmin is not the same without Hushovd.

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

Sheesh.

When it's this quick you want leadout men, not TTers.

Diesels don't like cruising at 60ks.

 

[Parrulo]

Millar missing yellow. Boohoo

Thank God!!

 

[karlboss]

Chavanel or Kwiatkowski i imagine

kwiatowski

Was Martin there at the end?

 

[sankaa]

I think they actually want every man on the team to finish on the same time. And EBH said before the TTT that sky didnt want the yellow jersey so early in the race and that its only EBH himself and the country of norway who wants them to win.

 

[puffin]

Chavanel or Kwiatkowski i imagine

Kwiatkowski

 

[The Hitch]

Damn, Kwiatkowski is going to become big by wearing a same time yellow jersey for a week. Would much rather he became big by doing something in Ardennes, worlds, giro or vuelta.

 

[roundabout]

Was Martin there at the end?

yes, was one of the first over the line if not the first

 

[ruamruam]

yes, was one of the first over the line if not the first

Thanks for that

THe dawg will probably tow him into yellow anyway

 

[Afrank]

Euskaltel isn't last place!!!

 

[shalgo]

What, no red polka-dot TT helmet?

 

[Miburo]

yes, was one of the first over the line if not the first

Don't mean that much, could have just hung on and barely taking any pulls.

 

[manafana]

thomas lasted till the flamme rouge that impressive from sky.

 

[Afrank]

Sky 25'59, into 2nd.

Phew, OPQS keep the lead. That was close.

edit: Happy OPQS keeps their lead, not about Sky's time BTW.

 

[Eyeballs Out]

Shocker from Astana
