"Doing the work"
On the Vs coverage of tdf, they occasionally flash a graphic showing which team (or the rider in a break) is "doing the most work".
Does anyone know if they actually have access to the riders power tap info, or are they just making some kind of estimate based on the amount of time they are spending in front?
thanks

I don't know how they can get accurate estimates from using a stop watch since the following riders go just as fast with less energy output.
