Criterium du Dauphine 2014: Stage 1, (Lyon-Lyon TT 10,4 km)

[Flamin]

Seriously.. dutch commentator is still doing her introduction, and Eurosport goes to commercials. They've been broadcasting 1 minute

Yeah, lol sucks that Sporza has been cutting big time in cycling broadcast.

 

[Samson]

Eurosport can suck it. 30 minuts late and now that they've start showing it they go on commercial break rightaway.

 

[GuyIncognito]

Jose didn't expect that

No way Jose

It's cause of Wuyts's ego i'm sure of. He prefers to broadcast Suisse instead of dauphine. Looks ridiculous but i wouldn't be surprised if that's the reason why they do the tour de Suisse.

Objectively speaking the dauphine is way more important knowing the top tour contenders are here and the winner of the tour almost always came from the dauphine.

Why is that? And not only Dauphine of course, also Pais Vasco, Romandie,...

Appearently, the last part is headwind, and the wind's been picking up all day. Explains why early starters go faster there

They never did Pais Vasco. Romandy they always do, just like this year.

Definitely has something to do with finance.

Cause there are more belgians in Suisse and Cancellara always does it. The guys from Sporza got a big boner for Cancellara.

Yea of course finance too but my point is that they should drop Suisse and do Dauphine. And also drop boring *** Romandie and do another spanish WT race.

 

[roundabout]

I am sure that Lyon is a beautiful city, but enough already

3 minute images, 5 min commercial. Long live Eurosport

Really? Always thought they used to do Pais Vasco. Romandie I couldn't watch this year, but I seem to remember they dropped it for a few years. Could be wrong though.

 

[johnymax]

Go Koren! 4th at the split.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Barta on course
in 15 minutes the supertrio

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Go Koren! 4th at the split.

If anything that split has learned us today, it says nothing.

 

[christopherrowe]

I'm now holding out hope that three or four of my predicted top ten is correct!

 

[Arredondo]

They dropped it for a year indeed, but the last 2 editions were live on Sporza again.

et voila
18.KOREN K. CANen 13' 35''

 

[GuyIncognito]

It baffles me why they're showing Bobridge

 

[Orbit501]

Is Jungels takin' it? What were the odds, 1:120?

Not sure if he'll take it, but I was surprised no one else called him before I did last night

I'm going to stick Bob Jungels into the mix for a Top Ten here.

Was 40/1 btw, but I didn't bother backing in the end.

 

[roundabout]

Go Barta. He can do it. Needs to lose under 10 seconds on the second half

 

[l.Harm]

It baffles me why they're showing Bobridge

Good intermediate time though

 

[johnymax]

et voila
18.KOREN K. CANen 13' 35''

Well it's still a good time for him. The gaps are really small...

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

It baffles me why they're showing Bobridge

Well he had the 10th split time. Although that doesnt say much

 

[roundabout]

Vasil is also in form
