You've got two data points: draw a line through them, and tell us when
Wim will win the Tour!

The decreasing gaps between riders are clear evidence
that now that LANCE is gone, the Tour is cleaned up
and the domination by robo-riders is over.

If Wim Vansevenant continues to reduce his overall Tour time by 9 minutes
and 7 seconds for successive Tours, and assuming he does not get caught for
using illegal methods, and if he does not experience the effects of aging,
and if all other riders maintain their current positions, and if all other
variables are neglected, and assuming the Tour continues to exist, then Wim
Vansevenant will win the Tour in 2033. In 2033 Wim Vansevenant will be 61
years old!!!

Here he is now...
