Re: Re:

Valverde's last great GT ITT was last year at the Vuelta. Nibali's was...uhm.. I guess in 2014?

Well, Nibali's last long ITT was in 2014. 19 sec slower than Dumoulin over 54 K and he wasn't going all out.

Proof?

He had a lead of more than 7 minutes.Why should he risk crashing?

Sure, he didn't need to go all-out, but that doesn't necessarily mean he didn't decide to go all-out anyway (e.g. to try and win the stage).

There are many examples of riders who did not need to take risks, but did so anyway because they wanted to grab more wins.

Chances of rain are dissipating. Surely this lies between Canc and big Tommy D.
Hoping Dumoulin smashes it.

Re:

I'm sorry, but is this supposed to be funny to mention a Russian rider every day?

Feel free to ignore me.

He was certainly taking the corners easy and cautious, absolutely no reason to force anything, Le Tour was won and anyway it was impossible to beat Tony Martin.

Yeah, I agree. I think he gave a good effort but not 100%, more like 90%-95%. Still was a great ride, though. If he had gone 100% I reckon 1:20 off Martin was a real goal, and over 54km when Martin was at his best that's a real achievement. Albeit, Nibali was at his best too. Also, he only finished 30 seconds ahead of Peraud. He could've gone faster.

Yeah, I'm all for Dumoulegend

 

[DNP-Old]

Zakarin is insanely overrated in long ITT's.

Some may remember a poster who did a similar thing with Tiago Machado. I forget the poster's name. He was resilient and stuck at it for several months.

Are there again json hyperlinks for the split times?

 

[Laplaz]

Ji Cheng to hang on Brändle's wheel and outsprint him in the last 100 meters.

They should be these, but they don't work yet.

Re:

Garzelli says Valverde FTW

Garzelli is clueless. When was the last time Valverde did a decent ITT outside Spain?
