    Who Will Win The Tour de France | GCN’s 2021 Le Tour Preview Show



    It’s finally here! The 2021 Tour de France kicks off this Saturday on the 26th of June. 21 epic stages, 3 weeks of brutal racing, and 3383km of gruelling roads await the peloton as they prepare to embark on the biggest bike race in the world. With defending champion, Tadej Pogačar, last year’s “nearly man”, Primož Roglič, and an Ineos trident of three Grand Tour winners on the start line – it’s going to be a truly epic race. Make yourselves comfortable; in this video, we’re going to take an in depth look at the route, discuss the favourites, and make our GCN predictions!

      Conor's backing Porte for the win. That is something I would love to see. Ritchie's had bad luck at the tour most times he's raced it. 202'0's podium was a great relief and confidence booster for the little guy. He's on good form, and he's not the overall leader. Conor's on to something. Porte's in with a real chance.

      Funny how there is no mention of Froome. The highest paid rider. It's almost sad to see him preparing for the tour while knowing that his reign is over.

      wow, people (in this preview, at least,) insanely sleeping on Roglic?! Not a single prediction for him??

      Hard to pick a clear favourite. I don't think Thomas' form is good enough, could easily see Ineos have 3 in the top 10 though, maybe even 4! Although the overall depth on qaulity of riders in this year's event is incredibly high!

      I guess Pogacar should be favourite, but i'll go for Roglic.

      What are odds for Loki Odinson to Win his 2nd Tour this year? He’s currently roaming around the universe, there is a possible apocalypse ongoing, the Delta Indian “variant” threatening a third more devastating wave around the globe on the “Horizon”… see what I did there?

      Any of the GCN presenters chose Egan Bernal as a Giro winner, none of the presenters pick Primoz Roglic as a tour winner, do this means that GCN is part of an obscure cult that gives the kiss of death to the riders that they don't want to win?

      personally i think the race organiser's have created a great start to the race, this 1st week will be a great one to watch exspecially for the new young riders who will want to get up to the front to show what they are made of for future contracts, the race this year generally will be exceptional to due to its punchy type stages. I would like to see the great Valverde take today's stage but as i said there will be a lot of younger riders who will be fighting for the place being as it will be a yellow jersey finish to

      Ugh. Men. Men and more men. Dudes. Could you ever include women? Women and their predictions? Women who are also cycling pros? Please. The time is now.

      So i was wondering about the rules of Tour de France. Say a rider has never won any of the stage race but at the last stage he wins the race does that count that he wins the Tour de France or is it points base? Cheers
