It's not an excuse because it hurts everyone, but the idea is to have these guys at their top for all three events. At least tomorrow the time trial is in the morning and there's at least 80 mins between the flying lap and the points race. The first riders has about half an hour extra for restitution. Makes a lot of difference, when they get this little time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It didn't give Gaviria, Boudat, Lansen, Cav, Viviani or O'Shea any advantage over each other (sorry I wasn't clear enough). But the level did suffer.

Not trying to make excuses (it was just a bad race by Lasse), but when they have about an hour, even 15 minutes can make a noticable difference. But of course, in general it is tough with the scheduling and makes it even more impressive (some would say suspicious) that Boudat could just keep on sprinting round after round.

Agger 1,598 Posted August 15, 2016 Author #126 Share Posted August 15, 2016 A slightly bad start for Hansen in the time trial. I believe he would have beaten Gaviria had he started better. Maybe even Viviani and O'shea though I doubt it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanse has a great start (80/80) but he losed all points at the elimination (Only 6 points) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
