I watched Remco, new TT World Champ, testing his gear before Worlds to squeeze every single second,
But then I see best track sprinters wearing chains, watches, big wigs, hair extensions, nets, yet sometimes winning gold and not being on the podium is a matter of 0.05 sec. I wonder why track doesn't do such testing?
Is that a matter of the distance - 100m vs long TT where milliseconds add up to be seconds? I only heard/seen Kipchoge wearing aero tape over his arms and legs, and he shaves his head - that helps.
