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

Mapped it out. The climbs are long and gradual with gentle gradients. Still, teams which normally aren't good in a TT such as Katusha could do better than excepted. First is a cat 4, the second is a cat 3.
This profiles are kind of strange. Doe the colors depend on the steepest section of the route because I don't see another reason why you should make a section of 7% purple. Normally purple is the color for streets with an elevation gain of over 15%.

BMC or Movistar for me. Sky has a good shot but their Romandie team was stronger and this TTT is a different one. Longer and more hilly. Astana and Etixx in the mix.


Romandie team stronger ?? Maybe on the flat ...but this is hillier

Thomas, Pate & Viviani out but Poles, Boswell & Deignan in ...all 3 of whom are good on the hills


I don't mind if SKY win or not....Etixx may have a better chance but just saying they are rubbish or team weaker are not valid arguments

The scale is literally directly above it.
