Splits are definitely playing silly, Derron went down to 3 min back, then jumped straight back up to 2 in a few secs.
GTB not been able to hang on the bike then, almost a min down now.
Wasn’t Els Visser supposed to be in this race?
british women dominating that bike leg

Yep, I wish the British media would give these women the attention they deserve, they’re desperate to promote womens sport, seem to concentrate most their efforts on womens football (which will always be massively overshadowed by the mens) they end up getting pushback over it.
Triathlon is unique, where the women are pretty much on an equal footing as the men.
Spivey going backwards on the bike, sick or mechanical?
6 Brit women in the top 6 now! 
She announced during Ironman week in Busselton that she was done after IM WA
And again this week that she’d changed her mind and was racing…

Well she has me confused
Huge fan of Ollie..Love that show SAS Who Dares Wins.
Guessing Derron will come off the bike around 2:30 down, will that be enough?
Although these splits are all over the place, shes jumped from 2mins down to 2:30 down about 3 times in the last few mins.
Spivey is now 6 plus min down, guessing she’s sick.
Derron was 1:11 down leaving T1 lost a minute in the first lap but has held the leaders since, ie for 50km. She’s riding in a rather loose group with Lawrence, Findlay, Berry, Salthouse, Simmonds, Pohle, Sala.
LCB is riding restrained (with Learmonth and Waugh), otherwise she’d be putting time into Berry and co. Or she’s eased off training after Marbella and is rolling into this one.
Assume LCB is confident of running faster than Waugh (has done both times mid season). Still reckon Derron will think she can take 3 minutes off LCB. But we saw a 1:17 at Marbella which is LCB’s best ever run.
Kate is having an emotional meltdown
Yep, this isn’t looking good for her, keeps shaking her head.
Watch Lucy finish this bike with a big move
