While the start of the Tour de France 2025 is fast approaching, some positions still have to be filled. Notice to amateurs who would like to experience the event more closely.
Here is a recruitment announcement that should not leave indifferent. Indeed, a few weeks before the start of the Tour de France 2025, which will start in Lille and will be held from July 5 to 27, Leclerc is looking for a new driver for … his giant leek. While the mass distribution brand has several cars present in the advertising caravan (a melon, a strawberry and an apple), the latter has just published an announcement to find who will have the honor of piloting during the next edition of the “Large loop” this vehicle which is transformed into a leek boot with XXL dimensions (six meters long and 2.6 meters wide). While interested people have until May 24 to apply, the stakes are high. Because, according to Michel-Edouard Leclerc, it is the “most noticed and most” instagrammé “racing car of the Great Loop”, according to comments made by Le Progrès.
A city in Normandy is looking for volunteers
Behind, the lucky winner will have the chance to cross France in July and could therefore be one of the stars of the advertising caravan. It remains to be seen, if with such dimensions, the vehicle will be able to make its way to Montmartre, which should be one of the attractions of the 21st and last stage of the Tour de France 2025. In addition, the brand of mass distribution is not the only one to recruit for this long -awaited sporting event. Indeed, while Normandy will be in the spotlight during the first stages of this edition, the city of Bayeux is looking for volunteers to best welcome the peloton. According to France 3 Normandy, the city from which the 6th stage will start, which will end in Vire Normandie, would like to count on the help of a hundred volunteers for the occasion. The candidates have there until May 31 to come forward.
