the pro peloton - wheels

one thing that always surprises me when watching pro races - the variance in wheels used. depths range from what appears to be >50mm to what appear to be almost box section wheels. one would think that with the experience in racing, everyone would essentially be riding the same wheels, which would be "optimum" for the particular race and conditions - but this isnt the case, lots of different wheel sections being used.

thoughts?
