BMC is so overrated in TTT, they always get picked for the win by some and then they fail.

Last time i talked **** about someone of BMC, he won 2 giro stages. Let it be good luck for bmc

So, atm

Van Garderen
Nibali + 3 sec
Valverde + 5 sec
Mollema + 1.14m

Why are you naming mollema? like he'll be actually relevant in a race?

Tirreno Adriatico ring a bell?
Also he did come 6th in the Tour in 2013

Yea when he got away cause people were looking at contador, sure.
He kept the gap after riders like Pinot, Contador etc started chasing.
Apart from that, Movistar must have had a furious pace on the last part.

What's your point? They guy also finished on the podium in Suisse and Pais Vasco.

I'm not saying he's a great rider. But good enough to be recognize. Cycling world is more then Alberto Contador.

Are they not down to 5 further out then the others?

Looks like it; they lost Poels and Stannard really early. It looked like Stannard went too long at the front and then didn'd have enough left to get on the back of the train - pretty poor from an experienced rider.

I think there were a few riders trying to cement their place in the Tour team on this TTT. They haven't done themselves many favours with Thomas, Porte, Konig, Henao and Nieve all waiting to come in.

No need for ad hominem, you can do better right? Mollema has almost never been relevant for the outcome of a race, that's why. But if you like to know who else will be in top 10 then sure go ahead.

No need to insult people.

Sky are usually overrated in ttt's unless they bring their A team with Wiggo, Froome, Kiry and Thomas.

Sky are just a mess. Every time you see them they have a guy off the back struggling to hang on; don't they communicate to the front rider just to drop the pace slightly and let him back on?

Roche struggling for Sky. Froome looks strong doing plenty of turns.

Nice, froome will still win this race easily then if the gap isn't too big.
