Maybe Aru is just using this as a training ride for future GT TT's - he's never been very good at it, so it could be a good confidence builder for him.

What's Ulissi doing? He's obviously not going to win even with the drafting he got and he's nowhere in the GC. Shouldn't he be saving his energy for stage hunting in the last week?

Last time he did a similar good TT he was riding close to Froome's salbutamol levels.

Also probably was pretty embarrassed by his performance on Sunday, as the home crowd favouite, and wants to restore some pride.

Aru makes no sense.
Somebody misinformed him that this Giro is TT heavy, he specifically trained for this.
The team actually did some wind tunnel testing durning the winter, maybe he actually worked on it.
Froome already sliding around on the saddle like Contador.
