Lance or Jan fall during the ITT? IS it too bad you lost the Tour de France, or do they wait up. What would happen? If Jan falls before lance goes will lance wait for him if he catches him while he is down, or does he just go on????? If lance finds Jan on the ground then he will have over 2 minutes on him i think, Does that mean he will wait up and ride with him?

GO LANCE!!!!

There's no "waiting up" in time trials. If they have a flat, throw a chain, whatever, the extra time is part of the total. The team car deals with the problem if the rider can't.
