Putting a TTT in this race is beyond stupid, what's the point?
I'm fine with an ITT, but nobody needs a TTT in an u23 race with national teams from all around the world...
The worst part is that they put it basically every year these days. Meanwhile a decent-length ITT never happens anymore, as much as the discipline has declined it's still far more relevant to modern-day racing than the TTT, and that's before factoring in the national teams.

Absolutely *** if you ask me..: it makes no sense to put a TTT anymore… would love to ear some kind of explanation from the race director about it
