The first Time Trial of the Tour.
Evenepoel should be the main favorite, but Pogacar did some serious performances at the Giro, and Vingegaard on past Tours has dominated the discipline.
The difference between Pogacar and Vingegaard could shape the Tour. If the later is able to recover time, it will be interesting, but if Pogacar gains even more time, the Tour could be almost over.
Cicone starts at 16.44 and with two minutes between them until Pogacar starts at 17.00
Thanks, I didn’t mean to make light of the skills they have at all. This gives me a better idea of what to watch for during these ITT stages.
To be honest I don’t think you can really see when they’re doing it right unless you’ve got professional aerodynamics experience. ITT is terrible to watch on TV (but great in person).
I find even highlights a pretty hard watch. Wish they would do KOM segments or a flying kilo for sprint points to spice it up for some of the 95% of riders that don’t have anything at stake.
