- The bike may be quick, but the article seems a bit too ready to credit the equipment for the result. Remco’s the one producing those watts—though I’ll admit, two minutes is a pretty convincing test ride.

- I’m still learning how time trials work: if Evenepoel caught Jay Vine, does that mean Vine started earlier, and do riders set off at fixed intervals?

- A flat Tour TT on these roads would be brilliant viewing. Wide, fast courses really let the specialists show what they can do.

- Fourteen wins in a season is some going. He sounded focused on his own effort rather than the riders ahead, which is exactly the mindset you want in a race against the clock.

Hard to take the article’s “recovered” line at face value when it ends by raising concerns about team entourages. Cycling has made huge changes, but scrutiny still matters.

Bassons’ story is a grim reminder of what speaking up could cost in that era. Fair play to him for holding his ground when it meant being isolated by his own team.

I’m still learning how team contracts work: if Barguil had ended his deal before 2018, could the team have left him out of the Tour, or was his place already agreed?
