Try Eurosport briefly during the ad break to hear Kirby inform us that 'Sagan isn't currently in any difficulty'. He's not even out on the course, that's why! Meanwhile David Millar is pointing out technical stuff that the casual viewer wouldn't have noticed.
If it wasn't for ITV4 seemingly having more adverts, they'd be well ahead in the battle of the broadcasters.0 -
I think the watchfinder advert could become quite irritating sometime about Wednesday0

I noticed one earlier had a water bottle on the seat tube. Nothing on the down tube. Surely the TT isn't long enough to get dehydrated after you start, maybe it's on there for some aerodynamic trickery?"The Prince of Wales is now the King of France" - Calton Kirby0 -
The phantom spotted.

Maybe it hides a battery for the motor in the seat tube? :twisted:left the forum March 20230 -

I was thinking the same - most of them have got interesting things to say about other riders as well as their own form. Mark Renshaw was quite interesting on the subject of Peter Sagan. David Millar now pumping Roche for information about tyre choice and pressures.
Remember when ITV were terrified about using words like 'peloton' in case it scared the casual punter off?0 -
Plucky little Tommy Voeckler is out on the course0 -

OF COURSE HE IS!Correlation is not causation.0 -
