Tomorrow is going to be a hard day for Craddock.. they can not wait for him and he will more than likely miss cut off and be eliminated.

what sort off % cut off would be implemented tomorrow? Would there be a time limit they have to be at the finish line after the first 5 guys cross the line?

I think it's a cut off relative to the GC after everyone has finished? Otherwise if it was relative to your own team and your team rode really well, you could be eliminated for falling too far behind them, but still be faster than guys in other slower teams.

AFAIK TT and TTT still % of stage winners time...

 

Remember earlier the year Cav was eliminated after his crash during the TTT at T-A after he didn't make it in time, % that day was 25% of stage winning team time.

They need to do something fast..might be a bit early to call but it looks like Cav is just not great..either he has lost his edge or he is just unfit.

His positioning has been poor.. can't contest the sprint if you aren't close enough to the front.. easier said than done though?

Seeing as he was picked for the TTT, it's a bitter pill to swallow for him.

Greipel not really there either. We will see how it goes.

At least yesterday he was there to contest..just not strong enough for the win.

Very sad, hope he has recovered enough to make cut off...and i am sure their medical teams is doing everything they can to get him on the bike, just hope he isnt doing more damage..then again the medical team will also be checking that.

35,500km  :eek:

 

That might take a while.

 

I am sure the use of comma(10,000) vs full stop(10.000) in figures have caused plenty of fun confusions around the world.
