Nothing new... france doesn't have a regular gt winner since fignon/hinault so it's normal

Why are you surprised?

Re:

Acording with diferences with Pinot and Kiato, it is a possible winner.

 

[Marco Pantani]

11;49

 

[matusow_m]

11 seconds faster than ALAPHILIPPE is nothing special. If it doesnt start raining Contador wont have any problem beating that

 

[sir fly]

Froome 11:49
Not bad. There's probably 5-10% to add in a month.

 

[SeriousSam]

Only 10 seconds quicker than Julian? Beatable if the weather holds

On the other hand, I'm surprised Alaphilippe is going that well. He really is a talented kid

 

[Samamba]

Froome gonna win, Rain is coming. Smart move from Alaphilippe, Froome, Yates, ...

 

[Red Rick]

11.49. Good, but not outrageous

The ignorance.

So many people were saying he was gonna do great in this. I don't get why. He lost more than a minute on Contador on PV ITT on this. What's different now? Nothing.

Thus overrated

 

[Taxus4a]

It would be nice no rain now, but...

Anyway we talk abot and uphill, no risk to take, no big influence of the rain...

 

[ILovecycling]

if it doesnt rain I think aru,AC and little richie have chance for the 1st place

 

[Praying Mantis]

 

[Jagartrott]

Rain is *always* more probable in the afternoon in summer months.
I cannot believe these teams are not aware of that.

Overrated for this ITT, yes, but not in general. He's been doing really well and is known to be more of a diesel climber than others

That's a bit much

Don't think Kwiatkowski or Pinot can be held as a reference, when judging Froome's time. However it's worrying that he beat Alaphilippe .

 

[Miburo]

I think only Contador and Porte can beat this. Don't expect much from Aru or Landa.

Re: Re:

Why are you surprised?

I didn't expect such a good time from him so early to be honest. He did nothing this year so i was dreaming that maybe he is not in top form now.
