My compliments of sharing and explaining the TTT-sheet. It is much better than the other sheets I found on the internet.

Hi, the sheet on the site now is updated. PD4 generates significantly more Draft in Positions 2-4 and my calculations will reflect this. Good Luck.

@@covboy70 that is nice and Thank you very much 🫶🔥

@@covboy70 Is there a new update needed for PD4.1? Your work is much appreciated!

@@eloyzwift Hi, I have not had a chance to look into this in detail, but looking at the ZI information, we are talking only a small handful of watts (perhaps 1%) different compared to PD4.0, so as a result I would not propose to change the figures in the current document. - Thanks for asking though :)

Hi Nick. Interesting question and something I don't have an easy answer for. What I would say is that in a TTT you are not trying to 'overtake' a rider in front, so as much draft as is available is useful. Then once a rider has done their turn, it is they who drops right off the power and drifts back. This power drop does need to be significant, to ensure THEY don't get pulled along and that the team can move past them. What I (and others) are calculating is how this draft means riders can do less behind the lead rider and go the same pace. Since this video I have actually gone further to take account of weight and height. You can find it on my website. In reality, we all know that trying to hold a paceline in any Zwift TTT is difficult enough, so trying to hold 1m off would be probably impossible. I am simply helping people get closer to this with a Power Calculator by rider by position, but it does take practice ideally.

You can find these on my website zwift-ds.com

@@covboy70 Thanks! Good stuff!!

Hey. Bit short notice for this week, but send me a DM on Facebook and maybe we can work something out 😀

Hi Calum, Thanks for the question. In truth the order probably doesn't matter too much. IRL TTT tend to sprinkle the stronger (more watts) riders through the group and sandwich the less strong inside the line. Not really an issue in Zwift, but I followed that logic anyway with riders in order of power 1,6,2,5,3,4 for a 6 person TTT. The reason I left 7&8 at the end kind of contradicts myself above, but just means if you using the doc for a 6 person ZRL team, rather than the 8 person WTRL race, you just end up with empty lines at the bottom, rather than holes in the sheet. Make sense?

@@covboy70 Perfect sense, thanks Paul!

Also, the sheet makes more sense sorting by RAW WATTS, not w/kg. On a flat course, this is more important and the basis of the order. The best watts, might not be the best w/kg ;)

Hi Gareth, you should be able to click on the link for the excel doc below, but open it as Google Sheets.

Thanks Paul
