Shocking TT performance on a course that suited him down to the ground. I will fall over if BMC re-sign him when his current contract expires.

Too bad the teams are unable to fire workers the same way an employer can fire an underperforming employee at any time.
He deserves to be fired, immediately!

Yes, BMC should direct their support to Hermans now. TJVG seems to have given up.

He did not give up. He just does not have the legs and he is probably very mentally weak and cant handle the pressure of being the team leader.
After all, his best results area from years when he was not a leader and in 2012 when he got Top5, Cadel was still the designated leader so there was no pressure on TJ to deliver.
There was no pressure on him in 2014. He finished over 11 minutes behind Nibali, in a race where Froome and Contador both dropped.lenric said:Jancouver said:Yingge said:Dekker_Tifosi said:RIP GT career Teejay.
