2015 Tour de France: Stage 1, Utrecht-Utrecht

[franic]

1’01 by Quintana is already a lot. I bet it will be between 45-60” with the other fabulous three

I will take under 45 seconds. Avatar bet?

Quintana seems fairly strong - finished well - just a bit ring rusty

Nairo's time puts Porte's in perspective. Porte had a crappy ride

Re:

No big deal if Quintana loses a minute if you ask me. Normally it would be a big deal because it would mean he would also lose time in the longer tt to come.

This TDF having this ridiculous nonesensical parcours, I think some riders may have just focused 100% on climbing and said too hell with spending too much time on the tt set up to save 10 seconds in a short tt.

Yes, this definitely.

Froome likewise, I wont be surprised if he does preety mediocore ( compared to what others think hell do). His focus on TT this year was almost zero.

I think. Porte will be one of first Sky to drop in the mountains.

Nairo finished strong, he was 41th at intermediate and finished 15th.

 

[perico]

Nairo still lost around 30 seconds on Gesink. Gesink's not a bad TTer, but I would expect all three of the remaining uber-contenders to be at least 15 sec quicker at a minimum.

Taaramae good... +45

They didn't get the memo that this is a climber's tour.

 

[lemon cheese cake]

According to Sean Kelly it is. He is at the finish.

Is Jan Bakelants using Sram wireless?

 

[sultanofhyd]

Kruijswijk 15s faster than Quintana.
