Marinos back bottle sticking up in the air like that seems like it would create way more drag than the aero jersey is saving. I guess the jersey arms could have some sort of cooling effect too though.

None of that shit matters as long as he sits behind jacobs guys. That is why you see him soft pedal and coast a lot, in a good headwind he will be putting out 10 to 20 less watts and aero does not matter one iota..

LOL Chrissy just said she had no idea what her watts are and had never used a powermeter, so much for ST gospel.

Macca is old school as well.

No Powermeter or similar at all.

Through 55 miles Jacobs continues to lead with Vanhoenacker, Guillaume, Van Lierde and McKenzie

Then, at 23 seconds we have Al-Sultan, Matthews and Alexander.

At 45 seconds is Luke Bell.

Kienle continues to move up - he's riding with Bockel, O'Donnel, Michael Raelert at 55 seconds.

At 1:15 we have Gambles, Henning and Zeebroek.

At 2:10 we have Bennett and Potts.

At 3:55 are Timo Bracht

At 4 minutes we have Andreas Raelert and Josh Rix.
