I'm pretty sure Wiggins, Martin and Cancellera were not putting full gas according to your statement.

King Boonen said:Long meeting, missed the end. No way Berto was full gas, no need to push it so why give the opposition any clues to TT form.
Krueziger might have been full and Quintana probably was.

Afrank said:Sagan probably wasn't pushing it too much, and Quintana probably was going all out to maintain his 2nd.
The time trial being only 9 Km's also helps. He'd be farther back in a flat long time trial. Quintana's not necessarily a bad time trialer. He's not of the level of say Froome or Contador (in his prime), but definitely not of the level of Purito or Schleck either.
