• Bam. That's one of the aspects of the race I always pondered about. There's no avoiding sleep. I watched the wild coast race carefully, and it seems like whomever had a structured sleeping plan, performed more predictably and thus preformed better on the long run, which ponders the question of how things progress from CP2 rest time.

    I haven't read @skinny analysis, but what do you mean by 20 minutes? As in sleep time?
    He's rocking some serious pace and has overtaken, so must be feeling pretty damned good

    It wasn't part of what I've read skinny write, but iirc 2 years ago in his first tcr skinny got into a ding dong battle with Josh Ibbett. Skinny took the lead going into cp4(?) but Ibbett was sleeping more and sleeping consistently, skinny was just grabbing naps here and there. Skinny ended up getting shermers neck and tried to continue with his head gaffer taped in position.

    I don't think that sleep deprivation caused the shermers but his sleep routine in that race was brutal and appeared inconsistent and driven by his battle with Ibbett... I don't think skinny is the kind of guy to make the same mistake twice.
