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.
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.
