Vuelta a España Vuelta a España 2020: Stage 13 (Muros > Mirador de Ézaro 33.7 km ITT)

[Leinster]

Roglic in green strikes again. Green > Red for Rogla.

He's going to be shoulder to shoulder with Demarre, Bennett and Ewan in all the bunch kicks next year; Wout won't be allowed sprint for wins, because he has to lead out primoz.

50s for Carapaz. Are there bonuses in the stage?

 

[Pricey_sky]

Gaps closer than I thought, but it’s still a big advantage for Roglic now with only 1 big mountain stage to go.

 

[will-10]

Richie cooked in final km

 

[Gigs_98]

Decent from Carapaz to be honest. But yeah, it's gonna be difficult to win from here on out.

 

[(F)lexer]

and +44 for Carthy iirc

why tf is the final week so weak? It would have been such an amazing fight for the win in Madrid

 

[huangho]

Carapaz lost a loooooot on the climb.

10s I think...

 

[bob.a.feet]

You know you're a good time trialist when you win the stage, put 50s into your biggest rival, and people still talk sh*te.

Fair play to Roglic. Very good performance.

 

[Red Rick]

I have a feeling Carthy will smash this.

Carapaz will

I should become a hedge fund manager

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

Very good by Arensman.

 

[SafeBet]

Not really, was +36 at the second time check.

On Barta. He was only 19" behind Roglic.

 

[ice&fire]

Not really, was +36 at the second time check.

But only +19 on Roglic

 

[Devil's Elbow]

But only +19 on Roglic

I stand corrected then.

 

[glassmoon]

GC
Rogla
RC +39
HC +47

 

[Pricey_sky]

10s I think...

He was 21s behind at the bike change and lost 49s at the top.

Not a bad TT at all, but he probably needed to keep it to 30s to have a realistic chance.

 

[Eclipse]

We are so close to being beautifully balanced, but a weak final week while the leader has the strongest team is going to make it hard to see any real threat of a jersey change I think

 

[Mayomaniac]

Looks like Carapaz started too fast. Roglic paced himself really well, but looking at the gaps you'd hve to call it another T below the expectations in the 3rd week.

 

[SafeBet]

10s I think...

He lost 30 seconds to Roglic in the final part, which was clearly the one most suited to him. He was bad on the climb.

 

[bigcog]

Oh well that's that, all over barring a disaster for Roglic.

 

[LaFlorecita]

Better TTs than expected for Carthy and Carapaz, but after that 1st intermediate point it's still a kind of disappointing result. Think this seals the deal for Roglic.

 

[Billie]

On Barta. He was only 19" behind Roglic.

But it was more than 30s at the bikechange

 

[sir fly]

Congrats to Rogla.
Excellent pacing throughout the whole trial.

Carthy overdid it at the beginning a bit.
Carapaz about where expected.

I'd be careful with predictions... Vuelta's been won and lost more than once in this decade where nobody expected.

 

[JosefK]

Really strong rides by Rog, Rich, and Hugh. Surprised by the latter two, better than I expected. Roglic has a lot of fight left in him. He was the best on the climb of the top 3 GC guys.

 

[ruamruam]

50s for Carapaz. Are there bonuses in the stage?

No, not in a TT

 

[Carols]

Chapeau Primoz, perfectly judged ride! Win #4 and Rojo!
