Who will win the Olympic ITT?

[TheEnoculator]

How is his cadence though....

*whistles innocently*

If he can spin a 58 crank, who cares about his cadence?

 

[bdelykleon]

Froome just doesn't have the pace to match Martin.

But I'm still puzzled about Chavanel's time. I don't have tv coverage, so I can't confirm anything. Is this just a timing problem?

Yes, unless he installed rockets.

 

[MartinGT]

Well done Spartacus, could have easily not started today.

I hope he smashes the Lombardia to make up for a sh!tty season of bad luck man. Apart from the week in yellow of course.

 

[King Boonen]

Where's Chavanel??!?!?!?!

It has to be a timing problem, because we have seen that Froome catched Chavanel before the first time check.

 

[superconfex]

Chav beating Canc and closing in on Froome...but then again this is coming from the BBC

 

[Catwhoorg]

Indeed...

I'll be interested in looking at the online coverage tonight to see the gearing and cadence differences between Wiggo and Martin.

 

[TheEnoculator]

Rogers had a decent ride.

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

Froome doing his bag of spanners impression.

 

[JibberJim]

Timing check has been updated to remove Chav.

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

Chavanel timing error now fixed.

 

[Montanus]

Martin still looks good.

If you check the standings, he went from 11th at Lap 1 (+0:05) to 27th at Latp 2 (+2:17) to 4th at Lap 3 (+0:59). Obviously a timing error somewhere.

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

Sky 1 - 3 - 4

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

Wiggins to go under 51 minutes?

 

[MartinGT]

The time gaps at this olympics has been pants, very shoddy indeed.

 

[Der Effe]

Can't one of these rockets placed on London flats shoot Wiggins off his bike? Because otherwise I don't see 'Der Panzerwagen' win.

 

[Montanus]

Froome put in another 20s to Rogers from last chrono to finish.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Chavanels ghost time has disappeared again.

Lots of bright stuff going on at the olympics time measurement these events

 

[bdelykleon]

Froome is bronze.

 

[TheEnoculator]

The French commentator is yelling in English, "C'mon, C'mon, Bradley!"

 

[Mellow Velo]

Rogers is on the throne.

Sky 1 - 3 - 4

Nope.
Pinotti appears out of nowhere.
Great timings.

 

[Montanus]

Pinotti! Great ride.

didn't you know. Riders need to pay 'administrative fees' to get their times listed and displayed on the boards. Also the higher the fee, the higher your ranking
