   Negative =

Italy has 2 real top contenders, and not even a podium place. 4th and 5th is dissapointing for Novelli* and Vergottini*.
What has as consequence that both have not a real chance anymore to win the NT jersey / both were favorites to win it.

Pizzuto and Facci* did about what was expected.
Only Petruso* seemed to have luck as nr 34 of TT-ranking, although he did had an active weather icon = *.

Unfortunately Marsile( 21st ), Fortticcini*( 22nd ) and Spadora( 24th ) finished all just 0:01" outside the points.
And Palandrani( 34th ) finished 0:03" outside the points, but no surprise he did not score as nr 31 of TT-ranking.
More was expected of Marsile, nr 15 TT-ranking, ánd Spadora, although just nr 23 TT-ranking, in previous season he was 9th.

Well, hopefully much more luck for Italy in the next time trial, NT race 6.


  Positive =

Despite Italy could and/or should have scored much more TT-points ( now it was "just" 660 points ) ;
as expected, Italy scored by far the best in this time trial, ánd is the new leader in the season ranking.
Former nrs 1 & 2, Colombia and USA, now nrs 2 & 3, scored even zero points, so, Italy is leading with a huge gap of 510 points.
