As per always, they have managed to screw up the live timing already. How do they manage it every time. I suppose there are a couple of plus points. These guys (Festina?) are not sending people to the moon, thank God and they're not Italian 'cos then it would be truly chaotic.

I expect Durbridge to top 6 on the stage,from what i viewed last night there was some strange betting on him,getting backed with all firms,should go well.

Nobody remotely close to Der Panzer on this ITT course.

The ticker predicts the time limit to be 17 minutes. Is that realistic? I mean, this could very well happen... must be the worst feeling ever.

Nothing can stop him:cool:

Pst.. That would be more appropriate for Koenig. It was made by Skoda, so definitely good for the tour though.:D

The winning time will be about 70 minutes, 25% of 70 is 17,5 minutes. So yes, it makes Sense. However, I don't expect anyone to miss out.

The official time schedule predicts a total time for the course of 1h 07mins. The time limit is 25% = 16:45 mins.

I don't know if the time is realistic. It suggests an avg. speed of 48.36 km/h. A bit fast for such a bumpy road. Maybe 46 km/h is more realistic? But it's hard to judge just by looking at the profile. 70 mins mentioned by thequestionmark = 46.29 km/h.

Martin did 54.271 km/h at the 1st TT at the 2013 Tour (33 km flat).
Froome did 37.245 km/h at the 2nd TT at the 2013 Tour (32 km really hilly).

This year's stage is much closer to the 1st TT of last year, of course.

I would say that Petits time is wrong at the 3rd inter

Yeah, i make that 9km in 8:44. A downhill followed by a climb - sounds a bit unlikely. Looks like Pate has slowed down a lot although that could be real.

Tuft equal with Pate at the first check.
