The 21 riders that are analyzed in the book. Green, riders called "clean" yellow "suspect" riders in the orange "miraculous" and the red "mutants".

Ah so that's why it's in the Sky thread rather than its own or a more general doping discussion

It knocks JVs rhetoric of the peloton being cleanER into reality. The peloton is not knocking out 65% Hcts but is doping none the less at the pointy end.

If its on pure wattage power-meters make it a little redundant applied to today's performances. I thought the focus swaps from turbo charging to recovery and consistency, and staying below suspicious thresholds?

Well, yes, but the thing is I don't think they used 6.0 W/kg as the magical threshold for clean cycling, so they're calling out some performances that the PR machine says are kosher. That's my impression without having actually read the article.JimmyFingers said:

Shouldn't that chart being in it's own thread? Since I'm sure most people have gotten sick of reading this thread and probably wont see it.

Well, they are actually saying that there is magical threshold and it is obviously one of the weaknesses of this analysis.
This is the best bit
Tout l'enjeu de ce bouquin est de savoir quelle crédibilité on peut lui donner. La démarche est intéressante car, pour une fois, on tient compte de tous les éléments (vent, météo, etc) pour analyser la performance des coureurs, c'est déjà plus fiable et plus scientifique.
It takes evrything into account (wind, weather etc)

Well he was a better pursuiter, so it wouldn't be unsurprising. Kennaugh should be a better climber though.

The thing about Geraint Thomas is that the clinic predicted he would be the next sky climber.
With wiggins and froome it was a huge surprise.
With Thomas, everyone said - hes British and rides for Sky, will he now suddenly learn how to climb.
And voila, what a coincidence, the next person who happens to be a good responder to Kerrison team sky revolutionary science, is him.

Are 4-5 min max efforts highly predictive of much longer efforts and recovery over 3 weeks in any other sport, or just in cycling?
