Orica, Sky and Movistar all with pretty disappointing TTT’s.  Good job I had two each from EQS and BMC.

Who wants to call tomorrow’s stage?

Anybody else read the Cycnews report yesterday where Cancy said he wouldn’t be going for a TT result today because he has a cold?

 

Yes thats why I left him out.

 

In then end I only lost 6 points on the team I would have had, as went with a Bodnar/Cummings combo whereas when I was going to have him in would have been Fabian + a 3.0 rider

My error on Cancellara.

And in terms of saying how doing you get it wrong, its not that I didnt know or anything like that. But you’d be surprised how easy it is to miss typing in a number in the spreadsheet when you have all the others to type in too. I obvs thought id put it in in but hadnt.

Fair LottoNL-Jumbo asks commissaires to correct wrong fifth place for Leezer

In the spirit of fair play, Team LottoNL-Jumbo called Tirreno-Adriatico race organiser RCS Sport to report that it incorrectly clocked Tom Leezer in the final time trial stage today. It has placed him as fifth, but his time was incorrectly fast.

Sports Director Jan Boven timed a ride much slower than the time RCS Sport reported for the stage. Fabian Cancellara (Trek – Segafredo) won the time trial in San Benedetto del Tronto and Greg Van Avermaet (BMC Racing Team) retained the overall lead.

“I followed Tom during his time trial and I measured a time that was 20 seconds slower than Maarten Tjallingii’s,” sports director Jan Boven said. “Because we want the sport to be as fair as possible, we called the jury to say that the result was incorrect.”
