His 'mental health break' hasn't done his TT any harm, flying atm.

Let's wait to see if he's still got his whiny mind when he's beaten again...

He was also overtrained.

I don't doubt Dumoulin has good juices flowing cause of the team he's on, but his TT IMO was Clinically not that interesting.

He had a good MTT in Suisse? Together with Tour guys underperforming in that ITT, and he's hardly raced less in the last 5 months than say Rohan Dennis or even Primoz Roglic.

Yeah, I didn't see anything extra-alien about Dumoulin's return to form in the Olympics TT--not anything inconsistent with the Dumoulin of recent years (pre Giro 2019 injury).

in fact, I would argue 2018's Dumoulin could very well have beaten Roglic.

He said he didn't have 2017 legs basically. But a minute is a lot man.
