Congratulations to Patience Hutchinson, who won a $20 Team Estrogen Gift Certificate and a Tour de France Vintage Portrait Tee. http://www.teamestrogen.com/products.asp?pID=15563
Patience was the only entrant to correctly predict the answers to 4 of the 5 questions posed. As Patience predicted, Robbie McEwen would both win the stage *and* be in the green jersey at the conclusion of Stage 4. She also knew that Tom Boonen would remain in yellow with a 1 second time gap over 2nd ranked rider Michael Rogers.
Statistics:
Winner of Stage 4: 41% of entrants expected that Stage 4 would see Tom Boonen with his first win of the 2006 Tour. Instead the 29% of entrants who predicted Robbie McEwen would win, thus taking his 2nd stage of the Tour, were correct.
Green Jersey Predictions: While 42% of entrants expected Boonen to retain his hold on the green jersey, the 47% of entrants who selected Robbie McEwen were correct instead.
Yellow Jersey predictions: Despite not yet winning a stage, Boonen (56%) remains in yellow for one more day, with a 1 second lead over Michael Rogers. The Hincapie (20%) & Hushovd (13%) supporters remained hopeful.
Riders with same finishing time as Stage leader: Predictions ranged from a low of 0 to a high of 174. In reality, out of 172 starters, 148 received the winner’s time. The last man crossed the line 3’06” back.
