I thought pretty much the same... Hasn't done an ITT since the National Championships last year where he was... 19th!

Yay Russians coming out of the blue :d 

 

This brings back reminders of Folivorov who destroyed everyone (except for Kruijswijk, who had nearly the same time) in the mountain time trial in last year's Giro :lol:

On a serious note though, what's the lawless part of the race? I've just tuned in.

The fact that UCI is going against their own rules concerning the bike change. Bikes can only come of the following car after it stopped, while here they have bikes waiting at the red carpet.

If they've got a rule for this race saying they can do it like this, it's not lawless :evil:

Yves Lampaerts is not going to change bikes, "because I have a lack of cyclo-cross skills" :p 

 

Victor Campenaerts will stick to the plan and change.

There is no new rule, they just ignored it. Made an "exception", because hosts apparently can decide to do that..

This changing seems better than letting a car stop by the way. Much easier for everyone, no obstructing of other riders or anything, less manouevering from cars and so on.

So it's an exception, which hosts are allowed to make --> not a breaking of laws :evil:

    • Zurich fend off Färjestad to claim European Club Champions title     Zurich defeat Färjestad to become CHL Champions Färjestad's inability to convert on special teams was costly Sven Andrighetto scored both goals for the Swiss     Sven Andrighetto scored twice, including the game-winner at 32:33, and Šimon Hrubec made 31 of 32 saves as ZSC Lions Zurich kept the European Trophy in Switzerland with a nail-biting 2-1 victory over Färjestad Karlstad.   The Swedes scored late to bring the game to within one, but a dominant defensive effort from the Swiss side helped secure their well-deserved win in the 2024/25 Champions Hockey League Final.   Both netminders were excellent through the first 20 minutes, but an opportune moment near the end of the frame enabled the Swiss to break the deadlock when Andrighetto slid a loose puck between the pads of Maxime Lagacé to open the scoring at 17:48.    Dario Trutmann threw the initial shot on net as the puck ricocheted off several players before finding its way to the top of the blue paint where Andrighetto deposited the loose change to secure his ninth of the year.   Then in the second, it was Andrighetto again as the 31-year-old extended his club's lead with seven and a half to go in the middle frame.   Play developed as Denis Malgin skated the puck through neutral ice before dropping it off for Rudolfs Balcers who quickly dished it to Andrighetto in the near circle where he one-timed it past the Färjestad netminder to make it 2-0 in favour of the hosts.   The Swiss continued to put on a defensive clinic in the second, mitigating the Swedes' offensive pressure and minimising their high-danger chances.   Hrubec managed to turn aside all 20 Färjestad shots through the first two periods to keep his club's advantage heading into the third.   Still trailing by two, the Swedes were awarded their fourth powerplay of the night when Zurich's Malgin was called for Boarding at 50:59 and would make good on the ensuing man-advantage thanks to Per Åslund's second of the season and first since his goal on Game Day 1.   Off the face-off win, the puck found its way to David Tomášek who slid it towards the stick of Åslund who was parked at the top of the crease where he redirected it past Hrubec with less than ten minutes to play in regulation.   Desperate to find the equaliser, Färjestad pulled their netminder in the closing moments but Zurich's defence, spearheaded by Hrubec, pulled through as the Swiss fought off the Swedes' last-ditch effort to claim victory and be crowned European Club Champions.
