Hmmm....I was expecting his tt to be better. Anyone think I was expecting to much?
Same here. I had him fourth in my pre-race predictions. But yesterday, when Thibaut found himself 3rd at 10 seconds, I was dreaming of a W. So I'm a bit disappointed. Having said that, it was a good week. Good descents, attacks, the ITT proved not suited to his diesel: he was 1'01" behind Bertie after 6.5km. Yikes. Tibopino's best result on the VaPV was a 9th place in '14 iirc, and that year his TdF wasn't too shabby
. The three on the podium deserved to be there. It's cycling.
