Three riders in the lead, followed by a huge 30-40 rider group. Meanwhile the peloton is almost 9 minutes behind already. 

 

Some interesting names in the big group, of course Teklehaimanot and Berhane attacked (independence day), but also Jan Polanc who's only 12 minutes behind in the GC.

Well, that's the end of Brutt for today. Couldn't follow Mohoric anymore, gasping for breath, apparently even vomiting....see you 30 minutes behind the rest at the finish.

I don't think he is there, because no way they would let him be at 3 minutes and the group at 13. It's probably Conti.

Both Polanc and Conti, actually :p  (and Costa, so UAE is having a busy day with Mohoric in the lead as well)

:yikes: And they are letting him go so much. Very strange.

It's making me remember Voeckler in the Tour years ago, when all of a sudden he took the yellow jersey by being in the right breakaway and then kept it forever and ever until eventually the real GC riders managed to beat him :d

      Asian Winter Games 2025

      By MHSN · Posted

      from what I heard , Iran has registered to participate in Alpine, CC skiing, SkiMo, Skating (they didn't mention which discipline ) and ... (this one will be surprising ) ... Curling    Curling is not a sure thing yet, the NOC has to approve it. the team is very new. I mean very very new, only few months ago they gathered few people to start the sport  you can't lose 100-0 in Curling, right ?    anyway it will be first time ever Iran participating outside of FIS disciplines. ( I didn't count Ski orienteering in 2011 which was the same as CC)   nobody cares about winter sports here. therefore finishing last won't have consequences. they can afford sending very weak teams. (which is not the case for the main Asian Games)

      11 medals out of 15 athletes. for whatever reason  we sent an incomplete team of 16 athletes (only 1 left for tomorrow) I wish I knew why  I can guess though   the result is indeed very good in such a competitive sport but lack of talent was never our problem in taekwondo. it was always there probably much more than any other country.    but the problem is the transition to the senior team. most of previous junior world champions never even made the senior team. (the new federation is doing better in this regard though)

      Maybe my analogy was bad. I meant a team points competition based on individual placements in each event.

      I actually feel like it has the potential to be good change. The new brand identities might open up more possibilities for merchandise. I also think the ISU could create a compelling team standings competition similar to the constructors cup in F1.   Plus, it might add a degree of “apolitical-ness” to the top level international short track, during a time where that’s been a hot topic in international sports (in general).    Maybe it won’t work at all, but I’m open to seeing where the ISU go with this.
