Quick Step riders will use the new Specialized helmet in the TdF TT today. It's said to be 26s faster over 40km for Remco Evenepoel, which I personally think is a bit too much. Apparently it will be released around February 2023.
Curious that elastic cap solution.
Two of the head positions in those photos are not the same.
As much as pros are lauded for their TT expertise and ability, not very many helmets save you the same watts in both head positions. Pick one and mentally chew the bar tape to hold still while you suffer.
Either one, applies to a small percent of hobbyist TT racers or triathletes.
I hope they also did some more neutral higher stack head down road looking postures.
