Hi Si, I tested it on 3 races so far. A short 20mn race on Volcano CCW, on a Champs-Elysées race (same as ZRL tomorrow...) and in a chase. I thought it was amazing on the Volcano CCW because mainly it switched all my focus on drafting and I kept some in the tank for the sprint (constant reminder about drafting, I still do not understand its mechanics and I don't think I will ever with this tool, but this is all about focusing on drafting). In the chase, that was very useful, because I could see the gap with the other cats ahead clearly, helping with the push. On the Champs-Elysées where this is all about 1mn power in the slope, it was no help at all, I got dropped. Hence...I do not see this anymore as an unfair advantage compared to other riders 😀

Looks like a better data presentation then what zwift shows now. Next laptop/computer thou as still have the old Home Screen on a windows 10 laptop which could axed by zwift within a year.

Sauce is just rocking it. Amazing! Solves a ton of issues with Zwift. Great Work Sauce Man. :)

This addon is glorious.

Great app, and I really hope Zwift see how much added value it brings rather than just shutting it down. Will be interesting to see...

Thank you. Very useful

SIR! This is some pretty sweet stuff

Nice one Si. I’ll download it.

Just ridiculous that Zwift isn't doing this anyway. It's data that's already there, it's just giving the user the opportunity to cut and slice the data how they want to - stuff that bike computers have been doing for decades with the computing power of a calculator.

I think as a training tool it could be great; learning how much draft you get from taking up a certain position. As a racing tool I think it's on the edge of what is fair. In a race everybody should be on a level playing field with respect to what metrics are available. That's exactly the approach the UCI took when banning things like Supersapiens in races.

To be completely frank, even if zwift would decide to ban this, they could not enforce it for anything except official races where zwifters have to stream their riding. I love sauce, it allows me to see a more tidy chat for my group rides, and less clutter from things i do not care about. It also can look better than the zwift UI.

Is there anyone watch that drafting meter go up or down during a race, and felt it helps?

I'm struggling to bring the sauce upfront when on the zwift

It would be great if you can show us a breakaway of the final km of a race. Ride away and use groups data and speed metric to maintain that gap.

So this is the new tool sandbaggers are using to stay at 3.2 w/kg ?

It's very interesting and useful during races. However, I don't think everything about other riders should be visible during a race. Current wattages etc, sure. But peak, averages, ... during the race is a little too much.

Only thing I want is to know wkg over the course of a race. Annoys the hell out of me when I finish a race and it says I did 3.9wkg, when I know I could have easily punched it on a sprint or gone a little bit harder up a hill for that extra 0.1wkg. Why can Zwift just have that functionality in-game?!?

Installation etc, is it simple enough? would be fine to go through that Si if you get the chance. do you need a second account to run it? read that somewhere?

Hey Where can I find CT Opposition in Sauce?

After loading it and trying to open the program, I got a message I have to be on Patreon to use it. Is that new?

Can you do a video using w'bal in racinng ?

Is it compatible with apple tv ?

not clear, does it require a fee?

How much is the subscription?

I like the draft element of it, but otherwise its info overload for me. You still gotta pedal. But many many may be into it . Draft would be interesting in ttt

This will be a tool the sandbaggers can use to keep their watts/kg just at or below so they don’t end up catting up when they can see their overall watts/kg for the whole ride! No thanks.

Wondering in what amount this conflicts with privacy legislation. Because it can be argued that performance data are also health data which are protected by privacy laws. Plus: Zwift should add the option to hide individual personal performance data gathered from add-ons like these.

Zwift should at least note that people are willing to pay $2/month premium for this.

I looked at it and to get it to work you have to accept all kinds of adware. Too invasive.

Time for ZWIFT to ban this tool from all races on the platform. Nice as a training tool, but I seen it already used as a sandbagging method in the B's to prevent upgrading to A's. And with being a paid service outside of ZWIFT, it's close to pay to win like in other videogames. It doesn't win you races, but gives you an edge that non-paying riders dont have. And I haven't given consent to Sauce for using my data, only ZWIFT, so if people say that Sauce is not GDPR compliant, they might have a point here.

1 minute commercial really !!!!

I actually wish Zwift was more pure and didn’t even have W/KG.

Controversial..... but I hate this. It helps sandbaggers stay in cat limits and it takes away the skill of working out how effective you are by practice and evaluation. Really not a fan at all. And am deftinately not a fan because it is not available to all riders on every platform.
