3rd June: Criterium du Dauphiné stage 1, 5.7km

[Kwibus]

Well Matt White was right again.

Durbridge wins.

 

[Publicus]

I think he's just going to miss the best time.

 

[Trofinios]

Damn, that was close!

 

[roundabout]

Congratulations to Durbridge.

 

[Kwibus]

That was close, congrats to Bobridge

Bobridge?

 

[hughmoore]

The Green Edge Train keeps powering on!!!!!!!

Great win by Luke Durbridge.

[Wilba60]

GreenEdge win. Not Bobridge, it was Luke Durbridge

 

[hatcher]

Nice ride Wiggo. Great win Durbridge.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

He lost 49" in the 2010 Tour Prologue (45th place)

You name 1 bad one. I'll name a few good ones once CQ is back up (wielersite is too much of a hassle).

 

[Geraint Too Fast]

That was close, congrats to Bobridge

..........

 

[will10]

Well done Luke Durbridge.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Placing is irrelevant.

WIGGINS Bradley 1 SKY PROCYCLING 00:06:40 00:00:01
EVANS Cadel 11 BMC RACING TEAM 00:06:44 00:00:06
NIBALI Vincenzo 81 LIQUIGAS-CANNONDALE 00:06:49 00:00:10

I'm surprised you made such an amateurish comment

it's 5km ofcourse the differences are very small. 10 seconds on 5km still means he lost 2 seconds per km and almost 1 second per km on Evans
You clearly lack every form of perspective

But I guess distance is irrelevant to you as well. LOL

 

[Gloin22]

Very happy. Means Sky will have to do much less work and concentrate on the moutnains rather than defending the yellow.

 

[webvan]

That was close, Wiggo not at 100% yet

Andy Schleck about Bruyneel

"A team director should always defend the rider"

lol....

The better ones seem to be from before he became a GT rider though.

 

[Panda Claws]

"A team director should always defend the rider"

lol....

Yeah, he is still a tool.

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

? JvdB actually did much better prologues than that. Unlike his long ITT's his prologues where almost always very good.

This is actually one of his slower prologues.
Too bad CQ is down or I would have posted some examples




No no and no, see above. Long ITT will tell us more. Like I said JvdB has done better prologues.

lol, not really. He has never sucked as much at prologues, that's true. But to say he did "much better" would insinuate he ever came close enough to winning one (and i'm talking about the last 4 to 5 years). And my remark was first and foremost based on his statement that he wouldn't be "up there" in the Dauphiné.

Yawn.

It was a good time for Nibali. Ofcourse he isn't competing with the TT machines, but losing a few seconds on Evans and Wiggins is a good time for Nibali. He can take more on a downhill

I'm really glad Nibali will ride the TdF. I'm convinced he will be aggresive... on the downhill mostly probably, but that's good enough.

You're such a joke. You start with placing and now you say the course is too short. You clearly always look for excuses.

Be accountable.

 

[Trofinios]

Wiggo 28 seconds faster than Andy. Guess it will be over 3 minutes on Thursday.

 

[Bavarianrider]

2. Wiggins Bradley +01
101. SCHLECK Andy +29

So that's 28 seconds.
That's 4,9 seconds per km

Tour has 101km TT
That's 8 minutes 20 seconds.
Good luck taking that back in the mounatins

Can you read? You're making a fool out of yourself with the bolded part. I'm not saying that.

Try reading again and then come back. The joke is on you

He was pretty decent in the short TT in Andalucia. Must have been top 5. OF course better field here.

Edit, 3rd in 2011

 

[DenisMenchov]

Wow so much effort by Wiggins to be the first loser. Well Done Luke. This prologue shows absolutely nothing when Tour favorites are considered.
