Did Mattea Cattaneo start?

Yes, is in 17th.

Lampaert 8th midway through.

 

[JosefK]

So Pog basically dismounted from his bike and walked it around all corners, remounted and exploded like a dragster on the straights. Rinse, repeat. Crush all rivals.

 

[Didinho]

Yves taking risks, could be close!!

 

[johnymax]

Did Mattea Cattaneo start?

Yes, Mattia. He is in 17th place right now.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Was going to say Lampaert got a massive tow but the guy in front was in the Movistar setup so maybe not.

 

[Samamba]

Pls don't tell me Lampaert is winning this. The horror.

 

[Lequack]

Is the GC already decided now?

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Did Mattea Cattaneo start?

No, but Mattia did. Unfortunately he's an Italian Linus Gerdemann, so he wasn't that fast.

If you want a massive tow, you need an EF helmet in front of you...

Lampaert is winning this

Cattaneo need to work on his handling then. Fausto needs to teach him that, he should be top 5 on a less technical course. He is a good guy and roommate of Fausto Masnada

Yes, Mattia. He is in 17th place right now.

Yes, is in 17th.

Lampaert 8th midway through.

 

[johnymax]

If only Remco was here...

 

[memyselfandI]

Yves!

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

I was told Lampaert is not able to finish a WT TT in the top 10 anymore just a few days ago. So i guess he has to crash.

 

[JosefK]

Pls don't tell me Lampaert is winning this. The horror.

It's getting surreal, now.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

No, but Mattia did. Unfortunately he's an Italian Linus Gerdemann, so he wasn't that fast.

He would be top 5 in a less twisty course. Need to improve his bike handling i guess

 

[Devil's Elbow]

TTs with big changes in the conditions part way through are just terrible.

 

[roundabout]

it's one of the mysteries of life why a rider like Mohoric is not a better TT

 

[Red Rick]

Lampaert clearly winning the Tour. I don't know why we've pretended otherwise the last 12 months

 

[Lequack]

 

[Red Rick]

Had to fix that bit for @Bavarianrider

 

[Red Rick]

Because he's really aero on a road bike but doesn't gain that much on a TT bike?

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Please not Lampaart

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Lampaert clearly winning the Tour. I don't know why we've pretended otherwise the last 12 months

Well yea, QS can just block the road for 3300km, it'll be like the Rabo roadblock in the Giro Donne all those years ago.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Deserved yellow after being robbed of a podium in Roubaix

I do wonder what Piddler can do here.
