Welcome to stage 4 of this Tour de Slovenie - and it's one where we don't really know what to expect from. We have a 52.9km individual time trial today, which lets us assume that the likes of Gautier or Flügel will struggle today. But as you can see in the profile, the parcours is a steady up and down, as we have four hills (and descents). We do have three intermediate checkpoints, too, all of which are within or just after one of these uphill sections. Is it hilly enough to still leave the puncheurs some chances? Or will the pure ITT specialists dominate? Will it take a good mix of strengths to win today? Time will tell!
Let's look at the stats and positions of some stage favorites, as well as the current GC Top 20.

Gautier definitely won't like the "TT" stats of the riders sitting behind him, as up to Figueiredo on P11, all of them would probably beat him in a pan-flat ITT. Cornu has got the best position of the stage favorites, and is likely to fight for the leader's jersey against Sepulveda. Or can Shikai benefit from his better resistance and create a surprise? Will we even see former winner Rolland repeating his 2015 victory? And how far back will the best puncheurs be after this stage? Let's find out!
But just before starting the race, let's look at how the bookies consider to be the stage favorites. They seem to completely ignore the hills, as the name the expected riders as Viennet, Durbridge and Kittel on top, then Cornu, Dempster and Tennant. Mottin, Sterobo, Ignatiev and Schädlich should have a good shot at the Top 10 as well (well, the latter will definitely aim for more). But now, let's jump into the race, as already the third racer will be an interesting one...
And indeed, Mottin crushes Pszczolarski's time by 49", setting a first mark of 19'03 at the first checkpoint. The Pole actually is a decent TTer as well - so either he has a very bad day, or we'll likely see huge time gaps - really huge ones.
Li follows soon after, with just 5" back, while Ligthart loses 8". Everything still possible for these two, with almost 40km to go.
The same holds for Sterobo, who posts the 4th time with 14" back.
Meanwhile, Mottin sets quite a mark on split number 2 with 35'22, being already 1'33 ahead of Pszczolarski halfway to the finish line.
Li has already overtaken teammate Galdoune and posts the second time at the 2nd checkpoint - 10" behind Mottin. Ligthart is again 3rd, 16" back.
Now, we have one of the bookies' 1-star-favorites reaching the first split time - and Schädlich takes the lead! The clock stops at 18'56, meaning he's 7" faster than...
Mottin, who's already at the third intermediate time - 51'33. He has just overtaken Pszczolarski, who still posts the 2nd time - 2'26 back. Just to say: Mottin is rated with 79 for time trials, whereas Pszczolarski has 74 - but is much better on the flat. This is actually an incredible time difference!
Meanwhile, Li already passes his next teammate in Banaszek, and reaches the 3rd time check still in 2nd position - 18" behind Mottin now. Ligthart still 3rd, + 28". Can these two riders claim back some time on the final section? It still seems possible with more than 10km to go!
This picture showing Sterobo arriving at the second split (4th with 26" back) makes clear how enormous the time gaps will be today, as he closes in on his teammate Gavenda starting two positions ahead of him, and Gavenda himself has already passed Albanese - meaning that at the halfway stage, the Dane has already caught the rider starting three positions ahead!
Another favorite in French ITT champion Robert passes the first checkpoint being 15" back - P5 at the moment. Christian does not much worse, being 7th with a 22" deficit.
And here comes the third Frenchman among the top ITT riders - Viennet posts the 2nd time at the first split, only 4" behind Schädlich - who at the same time posts the new best time at the second checkpoint, 35'07, which is 14" faster than ...
Mottin, who has just missed out on being the first rider to finish the race. Still, his final time 1h09'17 definitely is a mark that will be hard to beat!
Sterobo seems to be out of contention for the lead at the third split time, as he's 33" back. This is still P4 for him, though.
Brasilian ITT champion Nascimento passes the line at the first checkpoint - but 9th with 25" back is surely not what he had hoped for. Let's just have a quick look at the Top 10 at this point:
1. Schädlich 18'56
2. Viennet + 4"
3. Mottin + 6"
4. Li + 11"
5. Ligthart + 14"
6. Robert + 15"
7. Sterobo + 21"
8. Christian + 22"
9. Nascimento + 25"
10. Van Zandbeek + 43"
Robert passes the 2nd split time: 4th with a 27" gap.
Li then reaches the finish line - without any surprise, he's still 2nd. However, he lost as much time on this final section as on the three first sections together, making it a 36" deficit.
Ligthart keeps his 10" deficit on the Chinese, finishing 3rd.
Christian still has a good pace, posting the 7th time at checkpoint 2, while Golovash takes the same position on the first split time - 16" back.
Schädlich is still travelling at high-speed, as he closes in on Christodoulos when reaching the third split time. He has posted the best time at splits 1 and 2 - and he does the same at split 3! 51'13, having gained another 5" on Mottin for a total of 19"!
Viennet, 2nd at the first split, posts again the 2nd time at the second checkpoint. 7" now for him.
Sterobo was just 5" behind Ligthart at the last checkpoint - and he was able to overtake the Dutchman! But not only, as he finishes 2nd, losing 21" on Mottin - meaning he has gained back 12" on the final section!
Meanwhile, Nascimento continues losing time, as he's alread 49" back at the second split. P9 for him.
Hussein is the next outsider reaching the first split time - and he does OK: 8th place being 19" back.
Robert then reaches the third checkpoint 4th with 39" back. The French NC shirt doesn't give him wings, but it's still a solid performance until now. 13km to go for him.
Christian approaches the third split time as well - currently 7th with 55" back.
And it's still the same as we had some minutes ago, as Golovash posts the 7th time as well - this time at the second time check. + 33" for him.
Viennet continues losing a few seconds - this time it was just two of them. So he's still 2nd at the third checkpoint - can he gain back these 9"?
Or do we already have today's winner here? All we know is Schädlich had a great race and posts the new best time, as the clock stops at 1h09'00! However, he lost 3" on Mottin on this final section - and the Frenchman wasn't the fastest, either...
With Cheung, we then have another "77 TTer" reaching the first split. His 34" deficit is rather disappointing, though, and it's just P12 for him.
Nascimento still hasn't found the next gear, either, as he's alread 1'14 back at the third checkpoint - P9.
Hussein is just 6" faster than the Brasilian at the second split, making it P10 with 43" back.
Now it's Robert crossing the finish line - but he was unable to gain any seconds back. He even lost some more and posts the 4th time, 45" back. He may have hoped for more.
Christian, on the other hand, had a great last section, gaining back 4" on Schädlich and posting the 5th time! 51" is his deficit, and he'll surely not be unhappy about it!
We finally get a picture of Golovash, as he reaches the third split. Whereas he had posted the 7th time at splits 1 and 2, he has now gained a position and is currently 6th, + 47".
Viennet lost some time on each section - including the final one. Still, it's the 2nd time with just 13" on Schädlich, but he sure would have preferred getting the best time. Well, it wasn't to be today.
And it won't be for Cheung and Archbold, either, the first being 1'09 back at the second split (P12), the latter having already lost the race at the first split (13th, + 36").
It wasn't Nascimento's best day, either, as he posts the slowest time so far of the pre-stage favorites/outsiders. 9th place for him, + 1'24.
Hussein is a tad faster than the Brasilian so far, being 58" back at the 3rd checkpoint. P10 for him.
In the meantime, Golovash finishes his decent race and gets the 6th time, 48" back. He just lost one second on the final section.
Hussein had a great final section and almost beats the Ukranian! He clocks at the same time as Christian, but beats the Brit for 7th.
Bazhkou then is the first decent hybrid rider - OK in TTs, OK on the hills - and he gets the 12th time at the first checkpoint, + 28". So it seems to be mostly pure TT strength that counts, as he wasn't able to beat many stronger TTers.
As we've quite much reached the half-time of this time trial, let's have a look at the current Top 10 final times:
1. Schädlich 1h09'00
2. Viennet + 13"
3. Mottin + 16"
4. Sterobo + 38"
5. Robert + 45"
6. Golovash + 48"
7. Hussein + 51"
8. Christian + 51"
9. Li + 52"
10. Ligthart + 1'02
10 riders, 10 teams. And none of the riders having reached at least checkpoint 1 currently seem to be able to claim a place in this list.
However, this changes as Tennant quickly approaches the end of the first section: 8th place, 19" behind Schädlich. A solid start for the Brit.
Bazhkou, the only other rider currently on course and maybe having a shot at the Top 10, still isn't far behind at checkpoint 3: 11th with a deficit of 1'11. He'd have to gain back 9" to match the time for P10.
Archbold meanwhile finishes what must be quite a disappointing race for him; only 17th, and with a huge time gap of 2'17.
Another good TTer reaches the first checkpoint - and he does quite well: Ignatiev stops the clock at 19'12, which is 14" behind the leader. 5th place for him, making it a great start!
But it's even a better start for Durbridge, as we have a new best time after the first section: 18'54, which is 2" faster than Schädlich! With Viennet completing the leading trio at this point, 3/4 of the stage's top favorites have passed, and they are all ahead. Expectations must be high for Kittel, then!
Tennant reaches the second checkpoint, and he's still travelling fast: 8th with a 35" gap.
And Bazhkou actually gets the virtual Top 10! What a final section by the Byelorussian, who was 10" faster than Schädlich on these final kilometers! 10th place, + 1'01.
The fireworks continue at checkpoint one, as Balloni posts a Top 10 time as well! He currently is 9th with 16" back.
Ignatiev loses some time on the second section, and now is 6th, + 27".
Well, actually it's 29" now, as Durbridge keeps his two-second advantage at the halfway point - we're set for a great duel!
Meanwhile, Tennant crosses the line at the third checkpoint - and he is now 6th, + 43". Just five seconds faster, and he could be 4th!
Balloni is even faster at the second split, as he posts the 8th time, exactly 30" back.
Now it's Ignatiev posting the best time behind the 3 uncontested leaders - 4th with a 37" gap, and "best of the rest" so far, which means after 3/4 sections.
Then, we don't have to wait for long until the new "best of the best" reaches the third checkpoint, as Durbridge stops the clock at 51'06 - he has extended his lead to 7" by now! Does he have enough energy left to preserve his advantage?
Tennant definitely paced himself very well, riding 6" faster than Schädlich on the last section and claiming the 4th place, just one tiny second ahead of Sterobo!
Meanwhile, we get Pokälä's first intermediate time - and it's OK-ish. He's 15th, having lost already 23".
One of his teammates follows directly behind, and is 4" faster. Only 4", we have to say, as it's Kittel, one of the stage's top favorites! Very disappointing starting section for the German, who is only 11th!
It's a much better day for Balloni, who continues his great ride and even gets the 7th time at the third split, 45" back!
Ignatiev continues his great ride, gaining back 9" on the final section and posting the 4th time, 28" behind the current leader!
OK, we now have to say: behind the former leader, as Durbridge extends his advantage to 13" and posts a final time of 1h08'47! Can anyone still keep the Aussie from winning this stage?
Kittel probably won't, as he even loses a spot and is just 12th at the second split, 37" back. What a bummer!
Balloni is on the final meters - and he gets the 6th time, edging out Tennant by a mere second! 49" back he is, and that's definitely a good performance!
Which unfortunately can't be said of Kittel, who's definitely not singing in the rain today! He drops to 14th and has already lost more than a minute! What did Valio have for breakfast today?
Things aren't really better for Dempster, either, as he's already 22" back after part one, getting him only the 15th place at this point.
Koren following two positions behind him does two seconds better, claiming 12th at the first checkpoint.
Pokälä then finishes his race on P15 with 1'11 back, which is probably OK for him - and he was exactly 20" faster than Kittel, who loses another 4 positions and is currently 18th! What was wrong with him today???
Dempster (16th, + 44") and Koren (13th, + 40") are riding +/- at the same pace - which should be quite OK for one and a bit disappointing for the other.
Whereas Dempster's race is showing kind of a Kittel-like trend, losing time and positions (18th, + 1'14), Koren has gained a spot and is now 12th with 56" back. 13km to go for them.
Meanwhile, we're getting to the Top 20, and Affonso is the first one of them reaching the first split: 40th with a 49" gap. He's followed by:
25. Barbio + 35"
97. Waeytens + 2'08
136. Bratashcuk + 3'35
Dempster then reaches the finish line, and he will not want to see his result. We'll tell you anyway: 22nd with a 1'45 gap! What was that?
And what a final section was this? Koren gains 8 seconds on Durbridge, making him jump up 6 positions - he finishes 6th with 48" back! Which makes it 1-3-6 for cycleYorkshire - what a fantastic (temporary) team result!
And we're getting some more times at the first checkpoint:
110. Contreras + 2'22
114. Serry + 2'28
70. Feng + 1'18
81. Houle + 1'38
118. Flügel + 2'30
29. Figueiredo + 40"
69. Chiarello + 1'16
59. Costa + 1'04
Of all these, Figueiredo is surely the positive surprise, whereas Costa is really disappointing. But the race is still long. However, we won't really focus on these riders.
We'll rather focus on the likes of Izagirre, who has a solid start claiming P12, 20" back.
Nepomnyachsniy on the other hand will rather go in the "disappointing" category - 26th with already 34" lost. He has the same ITT rating as the Spaniard, but definitely wasn't on the same level on these first kilometers.
Rolland is only slightly faster, losing 30" on P24.
Shikai is in the same region as well, as he just misses out on the Top 20 - 21st with a 26" gap.
Cornu was one of the pre-race top favorites for the leader's jersey after this stage - and he has a decent start, matching Izagirre's time for 12th. But he should actually be faster...
Sepulveda is almost as fast as Cornu, as he loses just 2 seconds! Remember, the South American just has a 9" margin on the Belgian - these two should battle for the leader's jersey!
A jersey that Mraouni will definitely not take today, as he's already 1'46 back - 95th place. This gap wasn't really expected.
And Gautier already knows he won't be able to keep the jersey - and very probably not win it back tomorrow, either, as he loses already 2'28. 126th place for him.
Meanwhile, the fight among those who might take it from his shoulders continues on the second section. At its end, we have the following times:
13. Izagirre + 40"
26. Nepomnyachsniy + 1'07
25. Rolland + 1'00
22. Shikai + 51"
13. Cornu + 39"
21. Sepulveda + 50"
At this point, Cornu is the new virtual leader, as he has passed Sepulveda by 2 seconds! Let's see the virtual GC at this point:
None of these times will however worry Durbridge in the hot seat - unlikely that anyone gains back the accumulated deficit of the first half of the race.
Barbio is the first of the Top 20 riders posting a decent time: 22nd with 1'34 back. Given today's time gaps, he could even jump into the Top 10 with this performance! Something which Affonso, coming in 2'29 late, will probably miss out on.
Izagirre loses 14 more seconds, but gains two positions by the third checkpoint - 11th, + 54".
Nepomnyachsniy is constantly losing time, too - now he's at 1'33 and definitiely out of the "Race for Yellow" (which is green here).
Meanwhile, Waeytens finally reaches the finish line - he loses almost 7 minutes and will be looking forward to tomorrow!
Rolland crosses the line at the third split as well, and he's only slightly faster than Nepomnyachsniy: 24th, + 1'25, meaning Izagirre has passed him now in the GC by 2".
Rolland's teammate Shikai does better: 17th, + 1'04, meaning he currently is our virtual leader at this point, 21" ahead of the Izagirre!
But this doesn't last for long, as Cornu posts a time of 52'05, only 59" back, extending his lead on the Chinese to 17".
An exhausted Contreras then crosses the finish line, almost 8 minutes back. The white jersey will change shoulders as well.
He was almost overtaken by Feng, starting two positions behind him. He finishes currently 70th, + 4'08. And Bratashcuk (17th GC) arrives only now, 11'26 back!
And the fight for the leader's jersey will only be decided on the last kilometers, as Sepulveda loses only 6" on Cornu! Having gained back 5" on the Belgian in the third section, he now again leads the virtual GC, but by just 3"!
In the meantime, we get Serry's final time - 111th, + 7'55. Followed by Houle, 84th with a 5'28 deficit.
Figueiredo does much better - 25th with 1'44 back, and he takes the virtual GC lead ahead of his teammates Barbio and Trofimov. As only 10 riders are left - and many of them with no good times at all - he'll surely be within the Top 10 by tonight.
And that's already safe now, as Chiarello is 3'53 back and will lose some positions. Just as his teammate Flügel, losing exactly 8 minutes.
But now, we have a new virtual GC leader! Izagirre rides the final section 14" faster than Durbridge, and with a 40" deficit is currently 5th in this stage! Could this even be enough to overtake all the others?
Well, Costa surely is part of the riders who didn't have their best day today - 3'31 back, currently 63rd.
Nepomnyachsniy had a decent last section, too, riding 7" faster than the stage leader. He finishes 1'26 back, currently 22nd, and 2nd in the virtual GC.
Rolland is unable to beat Izagirre for the virtual lead, too, as he is just slightly faster than Nepomnyachsniy with 1'21 back, 12" short of Izagirre's overall leading time.
A leading time that Shikai beats easily, as he was even 20" faster than Durbridge on the final kilometers! 44" back means currently P7, and 27" ahead of Izagirre overall!
And now we're waiting for Cornu. Was the Belgian able to pull off such a great final section as well? He was 12" ahead of the Chinese at the beginning of the stage, meaning he must match a time of 1h09'43 for the lead... and comes in at 1h09'48! A disappointing result for him, as with 1'01 on Durbridge he even misses out on today's Top 10!
Here comes the final competitor for the leader's jersey - and Sepulveda makes it! He even gets an absoultely amazing stage Top 10, as he finishes 9th with only 49" back! The Argentine is our new race leader!
Mraouni arrives a lot later, as he loses 5'50 to finish outside today's Top 100.
But that's still less bad than Gautier's time - 120th with 7'47 back. And that's it, all riders have finished the race.
And here is today's big winner - Luke Durbridge! The Australian wins ahead of Lucas Schädlich and Emilien Viennet - double podium for cycleYorkshire!
And if that wasn't strong enough already, Kristjan Koren finishes on P8 behind Hugues Mottin, Ion Izagirre, Mikhail Ignatiev and Chen Shikai. The new GC leader Eduardo Sepulveda and Alfredo Balloni complete the Top 10.
Here are the next positions:
11. Tennant
12. Sterobo
13. Robert
14. Cornu
15. Golovash
16. Domagalski
17. Hussein
18. Christian
19. Li
20. De Luna
As announced repeatedly before, Eduardo Sepulveda is the new race leader - and he's got great chances of staying up there! He leads 16" ahead of Shikai and 21" ahead of Cornu, who are both clearly weaker puncheurs.
However, on 4th position is lurking Izagirre, one of the top puncheurs. 43" is a handicap he could catch up, but he'll need a way better performance than on stage 2, where he arrived side by side with Sepulveda.
Rolland is probably not strong enough on the hills to improve his position, but Nepomnyachsniy could still get a good result. Trofimov as the next great puncheur is already 2'33 back, and all others of them are way more than 3 minutes behind. It will be interesting to see though if someone will try a long ranging attack - which could really hurt some of the current Top 10 riders! Let's find out tomorrow.
Meanwhile, the points jersey remains on Gautier's shoulders (why?), and we don't have any changes in the KoM standings either ( Hermans leading).
We do have a change in the U25 standings, though, as Jose Fernandes takes the lead. Finally, ISA - Hexacta take the lead in the team standings with their good ITT performance.
