la ronca is hammering this

edit: ohh roux more than a minute better, but his time will come...downhill

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Average speed of Fumeaux at the first checkpoint, just over 30,85km/h

That first part is definately hard

 

[Ryo Hazuki]

Temperatures, wind strength/direction

so the wind will be a factor. even coming from the side it's quite strong

So what do you think? Someone of GC guys can beat Tony?

@ryo, wind doesn't only screw over quintana and purito, i don't tihnk it's good for guys like contador too.

No Tony is a beast on hills too. And on the flat part he'll gain a lot

there's a big difference between being 62 kg and 52 kg

 

[Popchu]

Time limit?

 

[De Snelle Duif]

Sergent seems to be riding nicely

 

[Ryo Hazuki]

this will be a bad day.

alberto has 62kg, nairo has 58 and chavito 55

nairo is not 58. he's 52 and 51/50 in the final week of a grand tour

Betancur's 80+kg has the opposite effect. Going to make some time back by bombing the descents while the moto dangles donuts behind on the climbs.

 

[De Snelle Duif]

Guarneri 18 mins behind at first check? What happened? Also, some guys already 5 mins behind, crazy

 

[Carstenbf]

Top 5 for Lutsenko?

Maybe Kolobnev?

Hard to predict not knowing the climb, but I'd have thought Castroviejo deserves a mention as well.

 

[Dr. Juice]

Malori 2nd at the first check, 24 sec behind Sergent who really hammered the first part.

 

[Roude Leiw]

nairo is nog 58. he's 52 and 51 in the final week of a grand tour

so if weight is so important, Betancur is superfavorite.,,.

Of course, it makes total sense for the team website to be 8kg off

Now only 2 mins behind at second check, probably a glitch.

There sure is a difference in descending skills and weight if you compare first and second check

well they are. like they have/had many weights wrong. he is 52 kg which I know from him personally.

I remember on this forum how people were always going of fon uran being 54 kg because they mistakenly always made him 54 kg on websites like unibet and caisse. when I always aaid he was 64 kg. wlel guess who was right?

 

[Miburo]

He is 52kg? lol
