No wonder.. Him and Rohan Dennis must have saved a lot of energy this Tirreno Adriatico.Jagartrott said:Campenaerts with a fast time. Wonder what the wind will do later on.
The TV commentators don't have them either,HelloDolly said:anyone got a link to live timings please

Yeah, wind and such might be different, but this difference is too big to downplay. He is missing his BMC wondermachine.

To be at the start wearing the TT world champion jersey gives me more responsibility and expectations.I think my conditions is quite good, I felt very confident during the TTT in Camaiore, I had a couple of rough days in the middle of this race but I think last year I was a little worse. In the last period, I had been training a bit more with my TT bike and I feel ready for a good race”.
The whole team is doing wonders in TT this yeartobydawq said:Langeveld beating Dennis in a flat 10 km TT :surprised:

Hardly.
Langeveld is on fire this year. EF should keep him in a free role, because it would be a waste to sacrifice him for Vanmarcke.tobydawq said:Langeveld beating Dennis in a flat 10 km TT :surprised:
BMC and Bianchi if you ask me...Scarponi said:Was the BMC Timemachine the best TT bike in the peloton?
Easily (one of )the best. Specialized, Giant, Pinarello and Canyon are good too, and Cannondale and Scott seem to have made some improvements over the winter too.Scarponi said:Was the BMC Timemachine the best TT bike in the peloton?
apparently Dimension wasn't happy with Cervelo either. Let's see how Dumoulin will fare in his first ITT today.DNP-Old said:Easily (one of )the best.

Merida on the other hand is proven to be the opposite. Riders have seen quite the decline in ITT results once they signed with Bahrain.
That's what I was curious about too, but they released a new one recently I think. Wonder how he'll fare.search said:apparently Dimension wasn't happy with Cervelo either.

On the other hand, Sunweb was very unhappy with Giant as well. Especially the lack of updates and innovation.search said:apparently Dimension wasn't happy with Cervelo either.
