Is there a chance to follow German national TT live on TV, or at a live stream or at least have some live scores from the internediate points and the finish?

Amy Pieters is the new Dutch champion after winning the SD Worx lottery.

Evita played the Muzic perfectly in France.

Oh, come on! You all knew that if I didn't do it, Samu was gonna!

Great finish really thought FdJ had blown it earlier on. I thought she was dropped on the climb but the truth was she never left them

That's Muzic to my ears!
She won the junior RR title in 2017, the U23 one in 2019 and now the elite championship in 2021.
I expect her to dethrone the president in 2023.

Evita played the Muzic perfectly in France. . .

 

[RedheadDane]

I'm not saying I was hoping she'd win just so I could make that pun, but... yeah... I'm saying exactly that!

I was also ready to make some kind of Cordon bleu joke.

Cordon will indeed be completely bleu now.

Lutsenko let go of his Kazach colours so it seems.

Indeed. Fedorov won it in a Yevgeniy 1-2.

Cordon will indeed be completely bleu now.

Sure, but not the right shade. The tricolore does look much better on a FdJ rider though,

Off topic, why do so many of them have names like they are my grandmothers or at least 10 years older than me? Okay, so apparently Liane Lippert left the race half-way.
Corinna, Tanja, Adelheid, even Franziska is not a common name among under 30s. It must be a milieu-thing?

Franziska Preuß may beg to differ, and Tanja Erath is 31 and Adelheid Schütz 47.

Adelheid is the most old-fashioned of those, but she's from Bavaria and some things are a bit differnt there. Corinna, Tanja and Franziska are typical names from the 70s I guess. Franziska is one of those names that come back every couple of years though.

Edit: Just read above that Adelheid Schütz is 47.

Yeah... but Franziska... I don't know maybe it's different in southern Germany, but Franziska seems to be a name for my age group (end-30s) or older... a Tanja I would imagine to be 45... and Adelheid 75... I'm not holding that against them! I just find it interesting in terms of who does this sport on the highest level.

I mean, I would expect there to be tons of Emmas, Claras, Angelinas, Celines, Pias, Maras... there are some, but all in all the names appear really conservative.

Is Pia a common name nowadays?
It's grown out of fashion in Denmark, but that probably has something to do with the best known Pia being a controversial politician (in some people's eyes).

Portugal:
Daniela Campos (Bizkaia-Durango) won the women's ITT.
Maria Martins (Drops-le Col) won the women's road race.

It seems Rui Costa won't be riding tomorrow, for some unknown reason. Will Almeida do the double?!

My sister who's younger than me always seemed to have a lot of Pias around, that's why that name came to my mind. Looked it up and it was quite popular from 1990-2015, but probably there's always a regional aspect in that as well.

Well, in primary school there was a German girl in my class called Franziska. So for me, that is the most typical name for 30-year-old German women

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Miguel Heidemann must be named after Big Mig, and judging by his intermediate time he may be worthy of the name.

Edit: Tony Martin just crushed Heidemann's time.
