Vuelta a España Vuelta a España 2019 stage 10: Jurançon-Pau > 36.2km ITT

[DJ Sprtsch]

Whoever designed that page was a real genious. The table with the intermediate times is just adding riders at the bottom as they cross the point. The table with riders sorted by intermediate time doesn't have the times. And if you want to know the gaps do your numbers cause they aren't there.

Appears they read your post here on the forum, they have now added time gaps next to the riders.

50 min TT so a loss of ~ 3 min for the small climbers

The average speed is rather low, so it should be hilly enough for them to limit their losses.

I'm afraid this is gonna be carnage, I expect a 3 minute loss for quintana and mal to Roglic.

You would think so, but usually they actually lose more time on courses like this than on completely flat course with above 50 km/ average. Looks like the gaps will be very big.

means: promise of great racing... esp. if Tadej "mountain Remco" Pogačar is in the mix

It's still 4km/h faster than the long ITT at the Giro

Don Omar Aleksandrro Valverrde 1:05
Pablo Escobar Nairito Quintana 1:40
Clark Miguel Angel Kent Lopez 1:55

Roglić has a problem with gaining big time when the TT isn't on the first days of race (vide Giro this year or TdF 2018)

Not only is not funny, it's an ignorant remark, that has nothing to do with cycling.
I think some posters could get sensitive if someone starts associating a rider with Hitler or another monster.

You better delete the post

 

[slosada]

Any chances of riders OTL today?

 

[Laplaz]

Jesus, Cavagna with a monster time

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Nice time Cavagna

 

[SafeBet]

Monster time by Cavagna. Serious candidate for a top3, I think.

 

[bajbar]

HUGE gaps

 

[Escarabajo]

Big gaps. This could be bad for the climbers!!!

35% time limit today, so probably not. At the moment even Theuns (who crashed pretty hard) is still ~5 minutes ahead of the time limit

 

[Escarabajo]

Lugvidsson just came in with the 4th time @ 1:50. Ouch!

 

[Laplaz]

Bevin new leader. 2 seconds ahead of Cavagna.

De Gendt just said he will skip the WC, because his form isn't there anymore. And it shows.

You're trying hard to make the "Mountain Remco" a thing, but it's not gonna catch on. Especially since Pogacar doesn't need to be linked to Evenepoel, his performances speak for themselves. There is also one Mountain Remco, and that's Remco. You make it seem like Evenepoel can't climb. While he's not elite yet, he has so much room for improvement still. And last but not least, there is little to compare Evenepoel's attacks to those of Pogacar. Pogacar is very cunning and waits strategically for the right moment within the final kilometers, while Evenepoel just blasts away at 20-100 km from the finish.

They have hidden Quintana inside some truck it seems
I guess the colombian fans are too wild.

I agree. Against an one-dimensional tempo specialist that is designed for a pancake flat course, they'd be able to limit their loses a lot. The track time trialist kind of riders.

But a rolling one with a lot of false flats/false descent makes the likes of Roglic and Dumoulin even stronger.

I just tuned in- It seems the parcours is quite challenging with all those ups, downs and constant turns..... Kelderman looks good

 

[skippo12]

Tony Martin more than 1½ minute slower than Pawel Bernas at the first intermediate....

It seems like he is happier in a lesser role but it´s really sad to see him soft pedalling a 30+ km time trial. I really hope that he still has something left in the tank for the worlds.
Also miss his long range attacks on flat/hilly stages. Was a lot more interesting to watch him time trial away from the peleton instead of chasing down the breakaway.

 

[Velolover2]

Valverde looks good.
