Tour de France - Stage 12

Stage 12 of the 2025 Tour de France takes the peloton into the Pyrenees for the first true mountain showdown, ending with a summit finish on the legendary Hautacam. Spanning 180.6 kilometres and featuring over 3,800 metres of elevation gain, the stage includes the Col du Soulor, the Col des Bordères and finishes atop a brutal 13.4km climb to the ski station. The big question for today: can Tadej Pogačar avenge his collapse here in 2022, or will Jonas Vingegaard be able to match him? Start: 13:25 CET · Estimated finish: 17:44 CET.
