Remember that hippy also stopped for longer than planned at cp2 to sort out his gooch. Ultan and co. were hours up the road by the time hippy turned south.
I've been using #168 Vincent Muehlethaler as a guide to how the southern route has worked. He departed CP2 at about the same time as hippy and he has kept a similar pace as Ultan Coyle and Matija Ilic (who were nip and tuck with hippy between CP1 and 2).
