He lost 25 seconds on the prologue, 3:40 on Stage 1, another :20 on Stage 2.

What's going on?

Well he punctured at 5km to go on stage 1. He'll look to get in breaks but I fear he'll be anonymous this Tour.

There should probably also be an option for sandbagging to go for the polka dots

He was trying for yellow on the first stages. But he punctured on stage 1 so he took it easy yesterday to recuperate as well as possible for KOM and stage wins etc

I voted sandbagging for the stage win, but "old" is equally accurate. Not to mention he had what would be a career-ending injury for most cyclists just a year ago.

I hope he's a factor at least in one stage. It seem sad to know he's in the race but never actually see him.
