  1. What happens if Ullrich wins the TT by 1.07 seconds and there's a tie? I looked in the rules but
    didn't see anything about a tie.

    Has there ever been one?

    How would the winner be determined - reverting to stage wins (i.e., Ullrich, with 2)? Jeff

    The closest race was Lemond over Fignon. There hasn't been a tie, but on close finishes, they go
    into 100ths of a second, so a tie is very unlikely.

    Not at the TdF.

    They would go with milliseconds, which are measured in time trials, and then by points, I think.

  4. I think the rule is that the best finisher of the stage is the winner. In otherwords, if Ullrich
    beats Lance by 1:07 in the TT he would win overall as he finished the last stage ahead of Lance even
    though they are tied on time.

  5. They go to thousandths of a second and if there's still a tie, they count testicles. The one with
    the most wins. Nuticle implants from the vet don't count
