TdF Stage 20. ITT.

Seems like Korals are doing e/w 1/4 odds 1,2,3

I think Tony is actually a good price tomorrow, but it's not my style to back at 1.3 in a race where anything can happen.

Valverde being heavily backed for a top 3, has he slipped to the press he's having a transfusion tonight or something? That's ridiculous.

Market isn't there at the moment but I'll be looking at Kiriyenka, Porte, Thomas to be up amongst the action, all decent at TT and SKY will be going all out to try and take something. Same reasons for Big Mick.

Durbo and Svein look undervalued as well.

In terms of implied probability Martin is an accurate price, but to describe it as a good price when as we know anything can and usually does happen in cycling, may cause heartache for those whose style it is to back such short favourites. Agree that Durbo is unders.

If there's anyone looking for a rider to back for interests sake, Tanel Kangert looks very hard and in-form after toiling on the front of the AST train in the mountains. He had a very impressive ITT performance over a similar distance if not parcours, in stage 8 of the 2013 Giro to finish in 3rd place behind Wiggins and ahead of Nibali by 7secs. May surprise with a strong showing. Has claims. Consider. 33/1 Top 3 (365). SP

You can get Kangert in the without Tony Martin market at 100/1 e/w 1,2,3 with Billy Hills

i had a cheeky tenner on danny pate at 330, some was even matched at 1000 lol. You never know.

Cheers Fela,SP, just had a small slice of 100 on Kangert.

what happened to him, crashed? Losing almost 4' between IM2 and IM3

the times are completely wrong bb66

cimolai is more than 7 minutes behind petit at point 3
at finish he is less than 4 minutes behind petit
something is wrong with time keeping

seems to be sth wrong with IM timing

IM3 of Demare, Kittel, Petit

That's French time by the way.

im3 is wrong. all others should be correct.

now they corrected it but kittel still wrong there

This is going to be fun to trade then.. Must have lost a fortune due to dodgy timing over the last few years.

nibali and peraud for top 3 for me. I think the GC guys will blow all the times, apart from tony martin if nothing strange happens. How is the weather btw? That could be a huge factor

market hates Pinot. 3,95 for top 3 i hope could be some value

top 3 overall of course

Tony with a massive chainring. Looks like something Grabsch would use.

Backed Kwiatowski 251 ew and Thomas 25/1 ew for interest but expect Martin to win easily.

Have also backed Pinot to win gc without Nibali at 11/2. Think this is too big, yes Peraud and Valverde on paper appear to be better time trialists but i've got a feeling Pinot will beat them today. He is a young rider who  has improved with every time trial he has done, and finished ahead of Peraud in the TT at Romandie recently (admittedly with a small climb in it). He also looked the freshest of the 3 riders in the last couple of days, and i think he will leave everything out on the road today in his bid to stay on the podium.

Martin down to 1,05 hours before the contenders starting lol

wind might get stronger

If anyone beats Martin it's going straight to the suspicious performances thread. Immense.

The coverage today is a joke. A TT without times on the TV.

can't see him being challenged

Be nice to see some in running times from the others for comparison

Interesting fight for 7th. Haven't really seen enough of Konig in a TT to judge where he's at in relation to Ten Dam. Both should beat Mollema to 7th place.

barta to win without martin traded for 1 at 200 ;-)

Kwiatowski FINNISH ..

nibali forgot to tie shoes lol

König surprises me

market says pinot doing great against valverde, very nice

TJVG catching Mollema

valverde 1 50 behind after p1

I've got Pinot to win without Nibali, hope he can hang on but in running tracker shows Peraud going faster

peraud only 42 seconds behind

Sky "Porte is in great form"

swiss tv women just said if nibali can improve in the second part of the tt he could possibly beat martin loooooooool
is she on drugs :D

she's a woman, that explains it

Peraud punctured

she also does wrong calculations

If Nibali beats Martin JC Peraud is likely to win the whole thing around September

Pinot 2nd?

Peraud 2nd

That can't be right can it? Zubeldia overtakes Ten Dam and Mollema according to Eurosport.

Mollema rolled round like he was warming down

Ten Dam had 3 minutes on Zubeldia and managed to lose it..

Must be sickness in the camp? Otherwise I can't explain that.

Leopold on Eurosport.
