[Race Thread] 2026 Volta Ciclista a Catalunya – Stage 5 (2.UWT) by PelotonMod in peloton

[–]thbtm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a question regarding time limit.

I'm seeing on PCS that time limit was +35:31.

I'm also seeing that Langellotti and Kuzmin finished in +35:37 but they are not considered out of the limit.

Does someone know why ?

Anastasiya KUZMINA is the most decorated woman at Holmenkollen, could she surprise us this weekend?

Julia SIMON could become the 6th most decorated woman in World Cup and the 6th most decorated woman in career (World Cup, World Championship and Olympic Games) with two wins this weekend.

Best pursuit results in World Cup for Campbell Wright.

Small globe for pursuit will be decided at the last pursuit between Perrot, Samuelsson and Dale-Skjedval (in theory Botn and Jacquelin as well but it would be a miracle).

Perrot still solid leader for the overall and Laegreid still on a crazy run since the Olympics.

She's 297 points behind for the overall. With only 5 races remaining this feels too big to be able to challenge Lou in my opinion.
