It all depends on rider's current form, but Cancellara is just playing in a different league. |

Disappointing stuff for the brits, but im glad i managed to get home in time to see some of it - I saw Wiggins and Cancellara finishing.

No one is going to touch Cancellara the next three years either. He's just awesome |

 BODROGI LACI!!!!!!!
I don't understand why he should get time penalty, it was Gutierrez, who made profit of his tempo, not the other way around.
Cancellara is a different class. Just like another Swiss in another sport

Cancellara is the only remaining TT beast remaining now that GT guys such as Armstrong, Ullrich, Basso, Vinokourov are gone (for various reasons), so no wonder he's slaughtering the opposition now (but don't get me wrong, gone dopeheads = good riddance).
And it's indeed a matter of form, it seems that 4 days between the end of the Vuelta and the ITT WC are too short for riders who rode and fought till the end of the Vuelta.
A good solution could be to do like at the OG : run the ITT 3 or 4 days after the RR, but maybe the WC excitement would be falling down then. |

I agree. even Cancellara said today that in retrospect he should've done the Vuelta as preparation.
also, the 3 guys behind Cancellara wouldn't be your usual bets for those places, but they all did the Vuelta and did extremely well.

Yeah, I don't feel sorry for the Germans missing out the medals though. I'm in a very anti-germany mood with all their untrue doping stories |

Bodrogi only rode the TT of the Vuelta seriously, he did 19 other stages of cyclo-tourism (more or less) otherwise.
Clement is quite sucky if he went all out for the GC in the Vuelta but finished only 32nd at 50'.  Obviously he wasn't going for the GC there either...
Grabsch went home about one week ago, he didn't ride the last 4 or 5 days.
The example I had in mind when writing above was JIGP dominating the Vuelta ITT outragously, but being unable to win the world's ITT one or two years ago, because he didn't recover on time. |

fair point about Bodrogi and Grabsch.
when did Gutierrez dominate a Vuelta ITT?

Obviously I'm confusing him with somebody else, but anyway, 3 or 4 days seem too short to recover totally when you hang on at 100% every day. One week seems perfect though. |

The time trial circuit was faster than people would expect it to be, so there is a possibility the road race has the same particularity. Freire might hang on after all, and win it. |

Very sucky? For Clement that's very good, he isn't exactly a stage racer you know. He was even 26th before the Abantos stage, but he got sick in the final week, which makes his TT in the Vuelta even more a suprise (he was still feeling sick). |

Im sorry but I cant believe that a 'sick' rider can get 3rd in the final Vuelta time trial and get 3rd at the worlds.
