During the Women's broadcast, CVV said that the TTT discipline is going away, or may change to a National team format
Anyone else catch that?
It's changing to a national team format with 3 men and 3 women per team, and medals assigned by
combined men's and women's time.
that would be the sane way of doing it;
they are apparently doing 2 teams per nation, 6 members per team, time taken as that of the third person to cross the line. They then add up the times as the cumulative and go from there.
Personally i'd have preferred 3 & 3 as you suggested, and then take time as that of the fifth person across the line. Would require quite a bit of geeky fine tuning
In terms of laundry, suppose the Dutch National team wins the World TTT title, do all the members of the Dutch team get to wear the rainbow jersey for the TTT in whatever races they do, regardless of which company team they're on? Or do they not even do that? Did Sunweb have stripes in their TTT kit this year? I forget now
I know it's a stupid question, but I always like looking for the stripes
