Impey-Matthews leadout for Gerrans from 500m would be interesting.
Degenkolb's surely still quite underdone.

Anyway, If Sagan and Cav keep winning this is gonna be fun.

Anyway, letour.fr has launched the new live tracker today. I'm having trouble using it though, it's hammering my quadcore to the point where Firefox becomes unresponsive. Could theoretically be useful...

Degenkolb is a shadow of what he was last year unfortunately. The crash has certainly affected him obviously and sometimes I wonder if he will come back to his best level. Too early to tell obviously.

First glance: disappointing. V limited zoom in/out and scrolling, very imprecise selection of group with mouse. \It's not encouraging me to use it a lot.

ASO probably got a good offer and accepted. Who cares about fans.
Dimension Data... Seems strange to me that a company like that can't get better JavaScript developers, this kinda stinks. The web just get slower and harder to use by the day. I'm not sure why Race Center and Live Tracking are two different sites, could be much better integrated. But this is early days, perhaps they will improve. I too am bothered by the maps' poor functionality. It's also difficult to see the situation on the road, the old tracker was better. Hoping for a ticker that doesn't hog my CPU..Lexman said:ASO only has eyes for money, it takes the money and run even if that implies boring flat stages, Angers was ready to pay the price the host the finish so we go theresir fly said:Exactly.Armchair cyclist said:First glance: disappointing.

this company or another one is willing to pay ASO for their live-ticker, great for ASO, what the consequences are for fans etc never mind

Was it intentional or accidental ?
CheckMyPecs said:Again? He's never won in Limoges.movingtarget said:Can't see any reason why Cavendish won't win again.
Off course. But he could've stretched the legs for show. The energy he saved won't decide the final sprint.PremierAndrew said:sir fly said:Greipel didn't contest the intermediate?!

Not like he has a chance of winning green any more. Even Cav stands little chance of beating Sagan for green even if he wins every single flat stage until the end of the Tour
