The race starts in Edinburgh on 2 July and ends in Paris on 25 July, after 3,479 km. The British stages could suit Matthew Brennan and the sprinters. Cherbourg and Plumelec look like days for Mathieu van der Poel. Then the 38 km time trial from Blois to Chambord gives Remco Evenepoel a real chance to take yellow before the Grand Colombier. In the second week, the race previews the Sallanches Worlds course and climbs to Les Saisies on Bastille Day.
Ethan picks Mende as his favourite stage. The 33 km Toulouse time trial opens the final week, with a short, steep climb to break the rhythm. The big day is stage 18 to the Col du Portet, with 5,400 metres of climbing over the Soulor, Tourmalet and Hourquette d’Ancizan. Pogačar has already won on two of the three summit finishes in this Tour. Bram and Ethan ask if he will go on the Tourmalet, why they do not like the descent to Laruns on stage 19, and what this route means for the Giro.
