time to get the ruler out for Isaac's socks

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Frank Vandenbroucke

I know, but the spelling is very different

?

 

[tobydawq]

I know, but the spelling is very different

The pronunciation is the same, though, apart from the final e.

 

[Rechtschreibfehler]

Ayuso is looking sooo slow with his big gear and mono-chainring.

Okay: really slow actually 23 seconds off SEixas on P1.

 

[tobydawq]

Ayuso really, really bad.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Juan Ayuseless

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Ayuso is looking sooo slow with his big gear and mono-chainring.

He is slow.

 

[canina82]

Ayuso with his usual early season shape but now fading. Typical early season peak.

 

[red_flanders]

I know, but the spelling is very different

Sure. My family name is Vermeirsch, but I still react every time I see a Vermeersch.

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Not that surprising after his P-N crash for Ayuso

 

[Rou]

Seixas is destroying these clowns.

 

[Rackham]

Ayuso with his usual early season shape but now fading. Typical early season peak.

I don't think his time is anything near being 'usual' right now. It's terrible.

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Del Toro is also not great in the first climb.

 

[Miha81]

Kid has this in the bag

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Ayuso with his usual early season shape but now fading. Typical early season peak.

Last time Ayuso did this race, he won it. But don't let the facts distract you.

 

[Rackham]

Del Toro is slow.

 

[Sciatic]

Landa freed

 

[Tim Cahill]

Del Toro, to his credit, looks almost Gall-esque on the tt bike.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

The pronunciation is the same, though, apart from the final e.

Correct, but this is just text. Anyway, associations is a private matter in any case.

 

[yaf2]

If he is a level above this field next year he'll be at Pog's level...

Well he isn’t.. no? Lol

 

[Rou]

What is AYUSO doing here with these legs?
Stage wins?

 

[Red Rick]

Del Toro and Ayuso kindly conspiring to make Roglic look less washed than he actually is.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Extremely strange TT, everyone you might expect to challenge Seixas is failing to beat the second string. Not a good sign for the rest of the week.

 

[Brullnux]

There's a very curious mentality among Pogacar fans. They seem to not be a fan of Pogacar per se but just love total dominance from whatever athlete it comes from. I hadn't encountered this psychology before
