How fast 2 roadies vs 1 TT rider would do could be better estimated from wind tunnel data, I suspect.
Definitely, but I don't think that the deck was stacked in Si's favor, at all. For all the kvetching about following distance, pulls and rotation efficiency, etc, those two guys are stupid strong. Connor was the masked man in the "How Long Can You Hold 440w?" video, and he held it for something like 40+ minutes, which absolutely bonkers and smashes anything that Si could manage.
