Froome’s power data would be super interesting. The velon data that was shown infrequently had him at 350w every time it popped up in the last 80km.
If he was going at 350w, with 14kg lighter weight and much faster descending, then 45 minutes ahead of Mullen sounds about right.
Isn’t 350w basically sweet spot watts for Froome?

Ryan Mullen weighs 79kg and Froome weighs around 65kg so it’s not that surprising that he put 45 mins into him. I’m not sure if he meant it as a dig, but if anything it proves that what Froome did is not as insane as it may appear.
As a result of his crash and lack of form he has hardly spent any time in the wind this whole giro and has not had to change his tempo to chase down rivals.
