Looking forward to seeing how Jonas goes in a pan-flat TT that isn't in the 3rd week of a GT

Not long to find out - he's off 3rd at 12:37 local time

Ganna off at 15:24 local, so if he smashes it, could be a long time in the hot seat.

Thoughts?

Vauquelin faster than Vingegaard at t1

Errrr.....
On the +ve side, you can see out of them with your head down, so better for rider safety

Waerenskjold faster than both at the finish.

A different finish this year.
It’s a bit damp, so the weather could effect the result.

The visma shark tt helmet is testing my resolve ...that's a massive faring ...

Jonas letting me down

They should have a jersey for the most ugly aero-helmet.
Boy, there’s a lot of competition.

Pidders currently 11th fastest, similar time to Ben O'Connor and Chuckles Kirby and McEwen suggesting it's not a good time for him
Bizzare, Tom has never been known as a TTer so I don't think that time is too bad

Pidcock going for this look

Thought Ganna was going to get that, but Ayuso holds on by 1 second. Big win for him, he's got 22" on Vingegaard now, who finished 9th

That's a great result for him - makes the race look very interesting

And on the grounds that they're fairings. Fairings aren't allowed on clothes or the bike so why on your head?

Can't see that they would be great on the protection side either. I assume they're much lighter than they look but giv the appearance that they drag your head into the ground if you do crash. It certainly feels like a far bigger issue than sock length.

I approve of the sock length rule on aesthetic grounds and it annoys me trivially that people have not understood that that is why the rule exists yet.

You mean the same Tom Pidcock who was World Junior ITT Champion in 2017?
0 -
He also won Junior Paris-Roubaix but no one thinks he's going to win the elite one.

That visma helmet is beyond aero ....absurd what is it 20 30 cm out from the riders face

It's horrendous, but still better than the Specialized linen condom around your head.

Kirby already reading out the startlist for the second time and there’s still 75kms to go.

He just suggested UAE might be riding for Majka's chances of winning today. In a bunch sprint.
