I guarantee that playlist is 100% genuine. It's quintessentially Jens.

German Eurosport have been talking up today for two weeks at least. Today they've shown nothing but races from this season with a big loving countdown to Jensie's attempt in the corner. I'm so hype

Jaksche: At first I thought: What are they so upset about? Everyone’s got it with them, isn’t this normal? What’s the problem? No one liked doping, not Stanga nor Riis, but in the world that we were living in, there was no feeling of wrong-doing. But, of course the situation was uncomfortable, and then of course as the Tour progressed, we were all scared of being pulled over by the police because of their anti-doping laws. I asked Jens Voigt, rider in the then Gan-team what his team does. Voigt says: One of our riders suggested burying stashes along the route. We felt like little mini-gangsters. One of our team members had the idea to hide the EPO in a double-bottomed vacuum that we carried with us on Tour. Polti, our sponsor, is a household appliance manufacturer, after all. We fit 10,000 ampoules into this vacuum including cooling packs. I just went into the bus after each stage and gave myself a shot. During the Tour, the regiment was 2,000 units every other day EPO with an additional growth hormone in order to regenerate faster, and insulin to help store carbs better. After ten or twelve days I quit this, the risk of getting caught was just too high.

It's decently produced for what it is.
I'm morbidly afraid the moorings on those giant Trek banners are gonna come loose and wipe Jens out.

At the halfway point, his pace is slowing as anyone'd expect. He should be able to hold on for at least a few hundred meter break of the record.

e: what is the 17.xxx number in the lower left (and that the trackside coach is showing Jens)?

What were the bookies saying?

The track has not got a very steep banking, I prefer ones like Moscow where the drop in is the equiv of a few stories. I'd post some videos but I'm on my phone.
