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

[Red Rick]

Surely if Carapaz loses 1:07mins/10km he would be 2:42 down on Roglic, not 1:07?

I think those things have very questionable methodology in general.

Some stats from PCS:

Based upon the performance in their last 5 time trials on WT or HC level, how would the GC after the time trial look like?

#		Rider	Avg. time lost p/10k	Virtual GC time
1	▲1	Roglič Primož	0:16	48:30:01
2	▼1	Carapaz Richard	1:07	1:07

19	-	Soler Marc	0:45	17:35
20	-	Chaves Esteban	1:18	26:59

He updated the chart... There were some mistakes... It looks a lot worse for Carapaz

Ohhh no not that ****ing stupid laser helmet again, that thing is cursed.

Let's pray Roglic won't get rid of the visor on the climb today

 

[Eclipse]

It's bloody hilarious watching a man in a TT helmet with no visor dying up the ramp. A truly ridiculous look that you could never explain to someone who doesn't follow cycling

 

[TomLPC]

The thing fitting on his head would be a good start, it can't be good advertising for them surely, the defining image of the tour being the yellow looking disconsolate in a lopsided helmet.

Vaughters on ES implying Carthy isnt interested in a podium, hope he isn't just chatting his usual mess.

I hope he is talking out of his ass tbh.

His ridiculous polka dot ITT is also included. This time he should do better.

Vaughters is the reason fans genuinely have grounds to think that they have a better idea about racing than the people involved in it

7th place sounds about right for an EF rider.

 

[richwallone]

TV is following the fight between Cavagna and Garrison teammates but I think Steimle is going to beat one of them

 

[trevim]

Is Froome going all out? Don't see any reason not to since there's basically one GC stage left and that will be on Saturday only.

 

[richwallone]

Cavagna only 3rd on the 1st time check...

The murito should be for neither Garrison nor Steimle.

 

[johnymax]

Cavagna not taking the lead at first check, surprisingly.

Cavagna not taking the lead at first check, surprisingly.

I don't think rest days suit him. If they had kept him on a hometrainer since Angliru, he would be flying now.

Wind is expected for the rest of the week. Rain will show up from Thursday on. Everyone better gets ready to race at any random time and place.

 

[johnymax]

Why is Kirby lying? He was talking how Froome was doing fantastic work for Carapaz deep in the mountains, when the Angliru stage was the only one he lasted till the last climb. And even then he was dropped as soon as the climb started.

 

[rehy90]

I am actually really curious how Roglic will do today. I am not convinced he is such a great time trialist in the 3rd week of GT. The rest day might help him though.

 

[richwallone]

Froome is going easy... Doesn't even have a proper aero water bottle... Marginal gains my ass

 

[richwallone]

He'll win today!!! No problemo... It's in the bag already

 

[richwallone]

Steimle doing good at 1st time check... Just behind Cavagna... I tipped him in top 10 today... Fingers crossed.

 

[broppo]

cavagna fastest at intermediate point 2 by 8 secs

 

[johnymax]

Cavagna fastest at 2nd check point. 8s ahead.

He'll probably be more than 45s ahead at the finish.

 

[richwallone]

Froome 38th at the first... 1'40" down... Hope that'll shut Kirby up!!!

 

[ruamruam]

Froome on the same time as that great tester Sam Bennet at the first time check
