A bit too optimistic IMO
That would destroy the world record.
In this technical road..no way. If it motivates him..then ok. |

Wow,Euskatel loosing 54seconds
Was this a negative or positive "wow", because I think that it was a normal result by Euskaltel?
I didnt expected such a margin between Saxo and Euskaltel on 23kms |

Such a good teammate Gadret is. Willing to help out the team in the TTT ... oh.
Well, he DID help them by not slowing down the pace.  They dropped him somewhere after 2nd point though, as far as I can tell.
It does make sense to let riders that are REALLY weak at TT (or just have a bad day) skip a couple of turns at leading though I guess. You don't want to lose them too early and not make it within the time limit... |

Except there's a huge difference at losing Gadret after 9km and losing Noval... Gadret should limit his losses. Noval doesn't give a shit.

They have Roche for GC,for Gadret is maybe even better if he lost some minutes as peloton could let him go later |
