They travelled at a speed he couldn't believe, for the race against the clock had once been his own speciality. He was especially interested in Armstrong's performance because their physiological profiles weren't that different: same height, same weight, Armstrong's VO2 Max was 83 to Bassons' 85. Regarded as a key barometer of athletic potential, the VO2 Max is the maximum capacity of an individual's body to transport and use oxygen. Yet when Antoine Vayer did the maths afterwards, he told Bassons that he would have finished 6 kilometres behind Armstrong if they'd started at the same time.
