    This could be exciting. I think Pog will blow on the climb though.

    Pog's taken 30 seconds or so! Either he's trying to put pressure on, Rog is doing a negative split or he's going to explode

    Porte close to the podium

    That might actually save 2020 as the crappiest year, although it's a new year for me today so happy 5781 mensches.

    A Rog TT at the start of a GT is different to a Rog TT after 3 weeks.

    Pog 1 sec behind Tom D's time to bottom of climb.....
    Could be very close for yellow

    If Pog takes this it will be incredible.

    It would be hilarious, given the general feeling towards the way JV have ridden this race, if Roglic were to lose the yellow jersey in what's widely considered to be the most boring form of road racing.

    There's so much to play for! The KOM jersey, the whole podium.

    Agree. I reckon Roglic will be getting time checks to WvA not Pogacar.
