Itzulia Basque Country 2025, April 7th-12th

We find a different reason to have a meltdown

No Teddy at the start is good enough reason to celebrate the whole race, isn't it?

Caleb Ewan will have a fun time.

He was a late addition to the team. His problem is to get to the TDF. even if he shows form, Ineos current calendar does not help him. He needs Ineos to do races like Hungary, Slovenia, Turkey, ZLM tour.

Looks like a good parcours to me as well, but I would have liked the ITT to be a bit more on the technical side.

This way, it should be an easy win for Ethan Hayter today, of course.

Hayter is coming from a long way back with his form. I reckon Schmid can do well on this route.

McNulty favorite for today? Maybe Schachmann and Almeida? Not so many good TT riders at the start.

Mcnulty should be favorite from Schmid. Would have loved for Cattaneo to be at this race.

Hayter was already mentioned. Skjelmose should also be good. Campenaerts apparently has focussed on this TT as well.

Armirail and Van Wilder can have a new episode of trying to find out who is the better TT rider.

Almeida vs the Lipopotamus vs Mas for the overall win.

after Paris-Nice, Lipo said his next goal would be the Dauphiné, while he'd be on domestique duties in Itzulia. No idea for whom, though, or if that's still up to date at all.

Maybe for Vlasov, if the later is better than in Paris-Nice...

maybe, yeah. For Martinez it probably comes too early

 

[Dazed and Confused]

seems like we have a very nice mixture of riders here. Dunbar should be able to do well in the ITT, if the form is good of course. Campenaerts will take the race lead after today.

Hayter 5s ahead of Campenaerts, so he finally seems to have found some shape.

 

[SafeBet]

Ethan Hayter proving is an honest man after all.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Too bad about Campenaerts. Go Dunbar.

Healy in 3rd, +11
