Stage 18 is the queen stage of the Tour, packing over 5,500 metres of climbing into 171 kilometres through the Alps. The peloton faces the Col du Glandon, Col de la Madeleine and the brutal Col de la Loze, finishing near 2,300 metres above sea level. With savage gradients and altitude to contend with, this could be the most decisive day of the race.
