2020 World Championships - now confirmed for Imola, Italy.

[Eyeballs Out]

Going exactly to form so far

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Dennis -20s down

 

[spalco]

Ganna looks super, super lean, excellent style on the TT bike.

 

[TomLPC]

Pretty brutal piece of revenge from ineos you have to say

 

[tobydawq]

Ineos podium looking more and more likely

Definitely. It can't really be avoided now.

 

[Pricey_sky]

Dennis’ time was good, 15s up on Thomas, but Ganna has blown them away in the first part.

Rest of the GC contenders thankful there’s no TTT in the Giro.

 

[Pantani_lives]

Ganna = Il Direttissima!

 

[memyselfandI]

Ineos Ganna fly!

 

[Escarabajo]

Wow, Ganna!!

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Intermediate Times

 

[richwallone]

It looks like the fight for the third now...

 

[Bonimenier]

Top 8 at intermediate were the expected 8.

 

[SafeBet]

Campenaerts came back faster than G so perhaps someone can beat him for the podium.

Edit: Oliveira also faster.

 

[huangho]

Wowowowowow Ganna...

Any race director including a TTT in a GT should serve prison time

 

[TomLPC]

Van Aert looks good for this

 

[Bonimenier]

Any race director including a TTT in a GT should serve prison time

Jumbo and DQS would also be pretty good at it.

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

Van Aert 10s faster than Thomas

 

[spalco]

Van Aert has caught Thomas according to GPS?

 

[Pricey_sky]

A few are better than Thomas in the second part, I don’t think it’s a done deal yet.

 

[Volderke]

Just joining in to watch the ITT... It looks like the organizers at least fixed the barriers where Chloe Dygert crashed yesterday!!!

I looked at streetview and the way the men went through this curve. It really wasn't dangerous at all, unless you:

1. hit the fine crack in the middle of the road
2. be in the aero position with your right hand
3. hit your front brake simultaneously with your left hand

 

[SafeBet]

Asgreen 15 seconds faster than G in the second half. Perhaps the wind is picking up?

 

[Bonimenier]

Van Aert has caught Thomas according to GPS?

Definitely possible. Second part seems perfect for van Aert.

 

[Zinoviev Letter]

The only real surprise is Thomas. Ganna and Dennis were the two top favourites. But him doing so well really changes the way it looks to complete Ineos superiority. If he holds on, of course.

Limit breaker Ganna
