Antonio that is, before some people here have a heart attack.

Kamna fastest with 48'30. Bet he'll be the marker for Kelderman

Nice spot :lol:

On Kamna, Didn't a mechanical stop this guy winning U23 Worlds ITT in Richmond?

 

[telencefalus]

almost 50 km h he is the only one able to mantain almost the same speed from 13 km to the finish line , we have a new Ulrich

No GC rider will be within a minute of Froome in my opinion.

About Kamna, he is no surprise.
He has long been known as a TT specialist and he has a lot of potential in the mountains so he is one to keep an eye on for the future.
For the last 2 years, I have always bought him at the end of the first season in my PCM career and developed him into a GT contender.

Well they don't call him Ullrich 2.0 for nothing.

Kamna confirms (somewhat) a tailwind

Very impressive ride.

 

[telencefalus]

i don't want to not respect dumolin but this Kamna has shown way more potential than dumolin at the same age .

 

[klintE]

Kamna beaten Froome, Zaka, Kelderman and Jungels at Romandie ITT. Not such a big surprise.

 

[Ruby United]

Kamna would have been helped by the tailwind. That advantage may disappear by the time the GC contenders take to the course.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Jungels looking awkward on the circuit

that was a very different tt , 1st it was just 18 km and was hilly , this is flat and all about power , and up the double the lentgh .

Kamna's explanation as to why he started out 'slow' and ended up riding full out is hilarious:
"“Normally I didn’t want to go that hard but I started to overtake the first guy, started to push myself and so went full gas."

Well tailwind sucks.
There will only be marginal gaps among the GC guys

Re:

Froome has implied that he is going to save some energy for tomorrow's stage which is bizarre.

Sure he is. By saying this it will make his performance all the more ridiculous when he wins the stage by over a minute to the nearest gc contender.

he doesn't start slow his speed was almost the same from the start line to the finish line while Others decrease theri speed from 13 km to the finish line by more than 1 km , so what Kamna has done is incredible for his age

 

[sir fly]

I'm surprised, though, Kamna isn't doing better in the mountains.
There's time for him to improve.

 

[telencefalus]

i think kamna time could resist till the end it woulb be fantastic for the kid

 

[telencefalus]

now that race goes in the gc guys i want to see this show , indications of time and speed are more than sufficient

You seemed to completely misunderstand my post.
Firstly, I put the word 'slow' in inverted comma's, clearly demonstrating that I didn't mean actually slow, but comparatively slow to other riders.
Secondly, the whole purpose of my post was to stress how impressive Kamna's ride was, namely that when he wasn't going full out - i.e. 'slow' - he caught the rider ahead of him and only then started riding full out.
