More than three stages in Italy, time trial, arrival in Nice…
After Copenhagen in 2022 and Bilbao In 2023, the Grande Boucle will once again start from outside France. Let’s move on to Italy, with the capital of Tuscany: it’s in Florence that the cyclists will take the first pedal strokes. They will stay more than three days in the Boot, since it is only at the end of the fourth stage that they will arrive in France, with a finish in Valloirein Haute-Savoie.
There will be two days of rest: Monday July 8 and 15. Two stages will be individual time trials: first on July 5 between Nuits-Saint-Georges and Gevrey-Chambertin, in the Côte-d’Or, and then on July 21, for the last stage, between Monaco and Nice.
The Alpes-Maritimes prefecture will therefore be the scene of the arrival of this 111th edition. Traditionally finished on the Champs-Élysées, the Tour de France will not see confetti burst in the capital, preparation for the Olympic Games requires.
