Perhaps next time you can formulate your posts in a less patronizing manner. I was right. The Yates' were luggage.tobydawq said:Jagartrott said:So, did Ineos do this on purpose? The wind may play in their favour a little bit - but they have no time splits to compare to. Ineos favourites according to the bookies, but I'd say Jumbo and DQS.
Also, I don't get why Michelton is considered 3rd favourite. They have both Yates' and Haig, that three guys that are of little use in a TTT. It's all about Watts and big guys, guys that weigh 55-65 kg are just not helping the rest.
Maybe because they destroyed the opposition in Tirreno-Adriatico with Adam the day before Simon Yates won a flat TT in Paris-Nice.
Just maybe.

Yes, you wouldn't really expect that by looking at their riders. Perhaps Caruso and Mohoric crashing yesterday slowed them down a bit.Rollthedice said:Red Rick said:Nibali looks strong. Good TTT by TBM
Pinot did better.
