Tour de France 11 Stage 20: Grenoble > Grenoble 42.5km

Tony Martin is almost as fast as in the Dauphine

55:27 in the Dauphine
55:33 in the Tour

WOW.

Wow, Martin. Hard to see anybody getting close to that time.
 
DJSirMatthew
guess Martin has changed his way to tackle this TT from the way he did it in the Dauphine?

As of this year a lot of them are. Which explains Europcar's performance

There was testosterone, but from an interview Hinault gave where he was talking about testosterone it's clear he doesn't know anything about it (he talked a lot about it but it was clear he had no idea what the hell he was talking about)

At the Dauphiné he gained a lot of time at the first check, a little more at the second and pretty much nothing at the third

Just heard on the TV:

1989 Lemond had number 141 when he won the Tour vs Fignon with 8 seconds
2011 Evans has number 141...

I admit my knowledge is limited on the matter. More research will follow, whenever I feel like it ;-)

@OT: Tony Martin has won this.

Are you saying Hinault did a TT in Tour de France at average speed 60km/h? Shock

If so, I want to see the results from that TT Pfft
