Paris-Nice '12: Stage 1 Dampierre-en-Yvelines - Saint-Rémy-lès-Chevreuse (ITT), 9,4 k

[maltiv]

Anton was only 7 secs off the pace.

That's a good time considering how bad his position looked. Probably in quite good shape then. Will be interesting to see if he can grab Euskaltel's first victory this year up Mende.

 

[LaFlorecita]

boy he looks slow - may be it's just the high camera angle but is Andy on vacation?

He's only here for the alcohol and the girls.

 

[Trev_S]

Porte away, he should do pretty well and finish up the pointy end.

Frank away, nice and easy effort there, no hurry.

 

[auscyclefan94]

Porte 4 secs slower. Only 3 secs better than anton

 

[hfer07]

hope Frank rescue the "Bruyneel treatment" from further embarrassment

 

[auscyclefan94]

TGBM gving a wink to his fans!

 

[Kwibus]

Decent time for Mollema.

Faster then Valverde for example.

 

[Modemfearer]

Lol @ Andy baby

Still better then Contador

 

[Froome19]

Porte 4 secs slower. Only 3 secs better than anton

More importantly ahead of Larsson.

Vanmarke also looking good.

 

[auscyclefan94]

Intermediate clock is jammed according to commentator

 

[Trev_S]

Any profile of the hill, or idea of what the gradients are like?

according the profile it's 1.1km at 6.2%

 

[auscyclefan94]

[hfer07]

[LaFlorecita]

LOL, keep reminding her of that.

Of what? I know Alberto's better and the poster himself knows it too.

 

[LaFlorecita]

Anton at 54s

 

[aspire]

Anton doesn't look like he is pedaling comfortably.

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

Anton at 54s

pretty bad finish. Mollema lost a lot less.

 

[hfer07]

Anton faster than Andy

 

[cineteq]

We all know he doesn't try in these races so this is no indication..

You're kidding right?

 

[The Hitch]

according the profile it's 1.1km at 6.2%

Cheers.
