Yeah...I retract my edit.

In my defense, I did say I didn’t know much about her 😁

She's ripping things up in any case. She's keeping her advantage on just about everyone.

Paulas on the otherhand... i hope that was windtunnel tested and it was actually good.

i was just about to post that... im far from a pro fitter, but paula's fit doesnt look that hot to me.

Careful, you might get called out for mansplaining (see the comments at the bottom of the article). It's hard to believe she's not on a bike too big for her. Nowhere to go but up on that bike. Really unfortunate.

And Lucy makes the catch!

Yeah, Paula and Sara are like the before and after pics in a bike fitting advertisement.

Still, as amazing as her position is, I wonder what running legs Perez Sala will bring out of the bike leg.

Pretty sure we can rely on Paula to produce a solid run.

...and in watching the time splits, Paula is slightly gaining on the lead. In looking at the 2 positions, this doesn't seem possible.

@Kid

Oh ffs. If it was a guy id say it looks like crap too lol. Im equal opportunity blasting pros positions that are junk.

I'm seeing the opposite, looks like she is losing time every split.

*edit - yup, looks like she's making up a little ground. (I'm not watching live, so I'm guessing what I'm seeing is delayed)

Rumors from the chat that Lucy has a penalty?

Maybe not going 3m wide on her overtake? Would seem harsh given where she overtook if that was the case

Saw that in the chat also but haven't heard the commentators say anything yet soooooooo...

Edit: Commentators just brought it up, LCB has a penalty for that pass. She passed on the right side but I assume it's what you said about it being within 3m. Pretty harsh. Great break for Paula - not that I think this is how she would want it.

I still cant get over Luis at Daytona getting a 2 min penalty and finishing just over 2 minutes back of the winner. Would have loved to see him through the hole race pushing at the front

The male commenter is poor, the woman is waay more switched on!

She got the penalty for passing on the wrong side, commentators say.

Although if he rode fair he probably would have a good chunk further back than 2 minutes.

Wow- 2 min lead off the bike long enough over 10 miles? I don't know anything about her, but since she is ITU I assume she can run

Edit: Perez Sala

Can Perez Sala run? She looks like a proper cyclist.

yep, confirmed on twitter

definitely not saying he wasn't deserving of the penalty. i was just hoping to see him battle it at the front given his run fitness in the past year

But she's british. It's not her fault!

agreed - for that reason i wish the brownlees had been on better form too. it's more fun when everyone is in the mix.

still, i remember watching daytona and thinking that luis was waaay out of line - he was repeatedly, obviously drafting.

Point of order that technically other countries have landed on the moon (Soviet Union and China). A few more have crashed into the moon (intentionally or not). USA is the only country that landed a crew on the moon.
