@mjd1988 you'll be pleased to know that I finished with a much lower w/kg than all the other finishers around me What I lack in climbing ability I make up for in wheelsucking

Glad the asthma meds are working!

Not taking anything away from you, but that guy you overtook at the line - boy did he mis-time his sprint!!

Maybe it was an accidental badly timed sprint, but position in the series GC counts for nothing and having found the race on zwiftpower, both @Norry1 (449) and Muller (446) are very close to the top of pen C range 2 (450) and so he might have been trying not to get the extra ZRS points for finishing higher and getting a podium bonus.

He was doing 10 w/kg over the line and missed out on the position by 6/100 of second when he could have just backed off and rolled over after Martin passed him if that was the case - so I think he was trying!
