By the finish that was a lead of 1’26. He stopped the clock in what appeared to be an unbeatable of 35’02.
As he headed to the hotseat he will have been optimistic that his time would hold up, but not 100% confident, considering the way Tadej Pogacar finished the stage 7 time trial. As riders set out and came home, it was increasingly looking like the rest were fighting for scraps, as none came even close to troubling the top of the leaderboard. A few in the higher reaches put in impressive performances but they were more like strong seconds at best. Magnus Sheffield would surely have been up there but for a bad crash on a ride hand bend, having been just five seconds down on Ganna at the first split.
