Jasper Philipsson sprinted to his first yellow jersey as the tour to France began in Leel, capitalizing on crosswinds and a strong lead out. Matthew Vanderpole edged out Tadage Pagakar to win the longest stage and take the race lead. Stage three brought chaos with crashes, but Tim Merier claimed victory while Philipsson was forced to abandon. Pagakar showed his class on stage four, winning in a tight sprint and drawing level with Vanderpole on time. Remco even dominated the first time trial, snatching the stage and shaking up the general classification as Pagakar claimed the yellow jersey. Ben Healey followed with a brilliant solo win on stage six, while Vanderpole reclaimed the race lead by a single second. Stage seven was a tactical showdown on the Mortona before the sprinters enjoyed stage 8’s flatter terrain into Lval. Mark Cavendish’s name loomed as the pelatin approached Chaturu on stage nine, sight of several past triumphs for the Mansmen. Bastile Day saw a breakaway flourish with French riders chasing glory while the mountains loomed large. The climbing began in earnest at Mont Door and as the race edged closer to Tulus, the GC riders prepared for real fireworks. Stage 12 brought brutal ascents to Hatakam where legends have been made and yellow hopes dashed. The time trial up to parigudes tested pure climbers with its steep final kilometer promising separation. By stage 14, the tour was deep in the Pyrenees with the iconic call due term and a punishing finale to legend superbagnars. A short rest bit came with stage 15 into Carcasson, a chance for powerful sprinters to shine again. Then came the looming shadow of Mont Ventu on stage 16, the mountain infamous for breaking champions. A sprinter friendly profile returned in veillance, but all eyes turned to stage 18, an alpine nightmare with over 55 500m of climbing across three brutal ascents, ending a top called de la low. Stage 19 from Albertville to La Plane was the final GC battleground before stage 20 offered rolling terrain for escapees. The final day, a ceremonial ride into Paris, carried a twist. The climb up to the Siker Kur, a nod to last year’s Olympic road race. The 2025 edition of the tour promises tension to the very end.
