Jonas Vingegaard seals 2022 Tour de France triumph in Paris – as it happened

Jasper Philipsen sprinted to victory in Paris as Jonas Vingegaard of Jumbo-Visma clinched his triumph in the overall race

• 24 Jul 2022 Jasper Philipsen (Alpecin–Deceuninck) wins Tour de France Stage 21!
• 24 Jul 2022 Preamble

Jeremy Whittle reports from Paris:

C’est la vie, c’est la guerre, c’est le Tour. That is it for another year. Thank you for reading, thanks for emailing and tweeting, and see you soon for more. I will be back tomorrow for stage two of the Tour de France Femmes. We will have a report for stage 21 of the men’s race coming up soon. Au revoir.

Tadej Pogacar, the beaten champion, has a chat with Eurosport and is asked how it felt to ride into Paris in second, rather than first position on GC: “I was still really happy to be here. I was really proud with my other teammates. We were riding strong. Yeah, it was not bad at all, I was enjoying it a lot today.”

On the brewing Vingegaard rivalry: “I think we [the fans] are going to have a really great next couple of years in front of the television ... me, I will for sure enjoy these years on the bike, because I love the challenge.”

Will he celebrate tonight? asks Bernie Eisel for Eurosport. “I guess so. We will see what we have prepared ... For sure we’re going to have a nice day, a nice night. Tomorrow I’m already on stage two of the Tour de Femmes, to support my fiancee. Tomorrow I cheer on, then I need to go home and set up some telecoms stuff. Busy life.”

And there you have it. Tadej Pogacar, the two-times Tour de France champion, has to get home and sort out his broadband connection. Then he can start thinking about next year, maybe watch some Tour highlights on YouTube ...

On the podium.

Mads Pedersen (Trek-Segafredo) has a chat, and is asked about his stage 13 win: “It was definitely one of the last options for me in this Tour. I planned to go all in for the first week, but I was a little bit sick before, so to have this stage win is absolutely amazing ...

“Cycling is the new national sport in Denmark. It’s absolutely crazy ... of course with the start in Copenhagen it was really special for all of us. And to see all these people on the road, we didn’t expect that, not that many people. Of course with Jonas in the yellow jersey it makes cycling grow even more, and now we see half the Danish people here [in Paris], so that’s pretty amazing.”

Vingegaard, the champion , speaks while holding his young daughter: “It’s just incredible. I mean, now I’ve finally won the Tour. Now nothing can go wrong anymore and I’m sitting with my daughter, and it’s just incredible.

“It’s the biggest cycling race of the year, and it’s the biggest one you can win, and now I’ve done it, and no one can take this away from me.

“I always had the feeling that at least I could fight for the win. But I think yeah, in the end, when I really started believing was after Hautacam. I mean, I always believed in it, but then I was really thinking: something has to go almost wrong before I don’t win, that was after Hautacam .”

He is asked about seeing all the Danish fans in Paris: “That was really incredible for me. So many Danes here, so many Danes arrived to see me ride in the yellow jersey. I appreciate it so much and I have to say thank you to every Dane who’s here and that has been cheering for me for three weeks now, it means everything to me.”

How will he celebrate his victory? “Tuesday I have to go to Holland ... Wednesday in Copenhagen, Thursday in the town I live in, and Friday I’ll be on the couch for one week.

“Of course I’m super happy about my victory now. Of course now I want to celebrate, relax, but then I also want more [Tour de France victories], yes.”

“Where’s my make-up,” asks south London’s Fred Wright (Bahrain-Victorious) when he appears for a chat on Eurosport.

“I’ve loved it. I loved it last year, but to be that percentage or so stronger, and be able do stuff in the races, it’s been so much fun ... You get so wrapped up in it. It’s only when you look at your phone afterwards that you’re like: ‘Oh yeah, actually, this is the Tour de France’.”

Adam Blythe tells him how brilliant his performances have been. “You’re trying to get me a bit emotional again ... it’s great, I’ve loved every minute of it. Even the mountains: it’s suffering, but it’s beautiful suffering. It’s been great – I’m happy.”

Peter Sagan speaks! He is asked about the final sprint on Eurosport. “Pretty messy ... On the last turn my chain dropped ... I started my sprint but Jakobsen was in the front. His chain dropped out ... I came over, I gained some positions, but in the end it was not enough.”

There you go: Jaksobsen dropped his chain, says Sagan, which explains why he was nowhere in the end.

How was his Tour? “For me it was quite easy. A lot of years I was dealing with media every day, podium, I did it with green jersey ... interview stuff, people around the hotel ... just quite good. The average speed was high, every day full gas.”

And what about his performance? “It could be better, it could be worse, that’s life. No victory but I’m here, I finished. It’s quite special [in Paris].

“Wout van Aert is like some kind of new level. If you see his results in Tour de France , it’s very impressive. Sprint, time trial, climb ... I don’t know why he doesn’t go for yellow jersey ... it looks like easy, he can go [for yellow].”

The outgoing champion, Tadej Pogacar, speaks about his late attack on the final lap in Paris: “It was kind of funny. Thomas and Ganna on the right side, me on the left. Fuck, it was funny, because I said to Pippo [Ganna] two kilometres before, I said to him: “We go for an attack?” And we were sprinting against each other. And i think I was just dead by the Triomphe, on the roundabout, finished.”

Philippe Gilbert, after riding his final Tour stage, speaks to Eurosport: “Happy to be in Paris. It was a tough tour, really difficult, and I’m happy to have made it.”

What made it difficult? Wout van Aert? “Yeah. Pretty much him. No, the speed was crazy, out of control. We went with a plan every day, and it ended up with the opposite. Some days we thought it would be controllable, with a nice [breakaway] group like it used to be, but it would end up with a crazy strong group to chase, and finishing with almost 50 [km/h] average. It was dry every day, so it means fast. A lot of tailwind, so it was really fast, fast.

“It’s nice when you can decide yourself, when you stop. That’s my decision and I’m happy to take it. I enjoyed also today. It was nice, yeah.”

Bradley Wiggins remembers rooming with Gilbert 20 years ago when they rode for Française des Jeux. “I never imagined you’d go on to have the career you had. You’ve won everything there is to win in the sport.”

“The same for me about you,” Gilbert replies. “We achieved our goals, I won the one-day races and you won the stage races.

“My career is not over,” the legendary strong man Gilbert concludes. “I want to rest now, and finish on a good note, I hope to win one more race this year.”

Simon Geschke has a chat with Eurosport: “It was a really fun time in the mountains jersey ... if I’d lost it after two days, I’d have been like: ‘That was fun’. But the longer you keep it, the longer you start believing that you can take it all the way to Paris. I thought I had a realistic chance, actually, but on the last mountain stage I made a few mistakes here and there probably. In the third week the energy levels reached their limits and that was it.”

“Too bad, but that’s part of the sport. The head wanted it more than the legs, but at least I got to wear it to Paris. Kind of a strange feeling, but still nice for the pictures, I guess. It’s a privilege to wear a jersey in the Tour de France . For sure I enjoyed it today also although I was only second in the mountains classification ... it’s sort of a little achievement, as well.”

Surely you have to question why Groenewegen sprinted so early? It looked like a bit of panic. All he was likely to do was lead out Philipsen, or Ewan, or Sagan, or AN Other. As it happened, Philipsen was in the perfect position to benefit, right on Groenewegen’s wheel. And it was an utterly dominant win by Philipsen in the end. No doubt Mark Cavendish is sitting at home and thinking he could have won that. It was a bad day for both Quick-Step and Jakobsen, who didn’t feature at all.

Today’s stage winner Philipsen speaks: “I cannot believe [it], it’s a childhood dream coming true, this will take a while to realise. I’m just super-proud of the team, that we finished the Tour like this, it’s the cherry on the cake.

“I think it [the final kilometre] went ideal for me. I was in a great position. I think Dylan was forced to launch early and I could really stay in his wheel and do my final sprint when I wanted ... I’m super happy and proud that I could win in this Champs-Elysees, the dream of any sprinter.

“It couldn’t be better. We had some disappointments earlier this Tour, things that went not the way we wanted. But to finish off in style like this, to win stage 15 and then again on 21, on the most beautiful stage for a sprinter, it’s just unbelievable.”

Top 10 on stage 21:

1) Philipsen 2hr 58min 32sec 2) Groenewegen 3) Kristoff 4) Stuyven 5) Sagan 6) Lecroq 7) Van Poppel 8) Ewan 9) Hofstetter 10) Wright

Kristoff (who finished third) sums up the final sprint: “Unfortunately there was a big movement maybe 300m to go, everybody had to stop pedalling a bit, and we lost a bit of momentum, otherwise I think we could have been closer to Jasper ... anyway I’m happy with third place. Caleb was maybe a bit angry with me, but I felt I was fair, I made a straight line. I got the wheel of Groenwegen and Caleb was a bit boxed in because of that, but that’s not my fault.”

On the final straight, Luka Mezgec took up the leadout for BikeExchange on the left-hand side, trying to set up Groenewegen. Ewan looked pretty much in perfect position but was ultimately boxed in and didn’t even bother to sprint. Groenewegen was second, Kristoff third, Stuyven fourth and Sagan fifth!

Philipsen got on Groenewegen’s wheel - the BikeExchange–Jayco rider went early - and Philipsen timed it perfectly, completely dominating his rival in the final metres after springing out from behind Groenewegen and heading for the clear road on the right. Ewan looked unhappy to be boxed in by Kristoff. A really bad Tour de France for the Australian and for Lotto Soudal.

Jasper Philipsen (Alpecin–Deceuninck) wins Tour de France Stage 21!

Wow! Philipsen’s second stage win of the race is sealed in Paris! Back down the road, Jumbo-Visma ride across the finish line in formation. Jonas Vingegaard safely negotiates the final stage and wins his first Tour de France .

1km to go: Thomas (Cofidis) attacks!

2.5km to go: Ewan is well placed for Lotto Soudal and has teammates around him. Philipsen (Alpecin–Deceuninck) is right up there. Jakobsen is going to have a say, too ...

3.5km to go: Politt leads for a while then pops and drops back. Simmons is there for Trek-Segafredo and Pedersen ... The peloton speeds towards the famous tunnel for one final time.

5km to go: Around the Arc for the final time. Ineos are on the front with Ganna. Trek-Segafredo are massed near the front. Politt is up there for Bora. BikeExchange working for Groenewegen. It’s all happening.

6.3km to go: Thomas and Ganna attack on the left for Ineos! Pogacar attacks off the front on the other side of the road! Pogacar isn’t letting his Tour de France crown go without at least reminding us all that he still exists!

7.5km to go: The riders round the right-hand bend which leads up to the start-finish line for the penultimate time. The Arc de Triomphe is visible in the distance. As the bell sounds for the final lap, Schachmann and Rutsch are overwhelmed by the charging peloton. The crowd roars! We are all back together!

8.5km to go : And then there were two. Schachmann and Rutsch are up front together, the two Groupama-FDJ riders having fallen out of it.

9km to go: HUGE ride by Schachmann of Bora-Hansgrohe, on the front again and stamping on the pedals as hard as he can. He has clearly ridden himself into some very good form at this Tour.

11km to go: Schachmann does another turn, then flicks his elbow to ask Jonas Rutsch to have a go. The turns at the front are becoming shorter and shorter as the fatigue really sets in. Are the sprinters’ teams just holding off a touch? No – the gap is now six seconds.

12km to go: Cracking ride by the four up front, this is. They are holding the peloton at around 10sec as they round the Arc de Triomphe. Mind you, the four is now down to three: Le Gac’s tank is empty and he drops back to the bunch.

15km to go: The break’s advantage drops to under 10 seconds. They will be getting swallowed up before too long. Looking grim-faced, Schachmann puts in another desperate dig to try and keep away. These guys are basically sprinting now to try and keep their advantage ... and it does creep back up to 11sec to mark the effort they are putting in.

18km to go: Doull has been dropped by the escape group so they are down to four. The gap is holding at 15sec. Le Gac and Duchesne, the Groupama-FDJ teammates, take it up at the tête de la course .

19km to go: The likes of Lotto Soudal are working desperately to set up a sprint. Their sports directors will be yelling down the team radios and no mistake. But will they simply be setting up the likes of Wout van Aert to win in Paris again? If as expected it’s a big bunch sprint, surely Jakobsen or Ewan will have the raw speed to win it ...?

How about Alexander Kristoff (Intermarché–Wanty–Gobert Matériaux), a man who has won in Paris before, and who tends to excel when everyone else is knackered?

20km to go: Here we go. Into the final 20km of a truly epic Tour de France . The advantage for this five-man break is 15sec.

The riders in the break are Schachmann, Duchesne, Rutsch, Le Gac and Doull.

21km to go: #LargelyCeremonial

You get a different perception of the Largely Ceremonial and Processional Paris stage when you’re actually there. It’s unbelievable how fast the riders go on the circuit, and it’s exhilarating to see. Plus, Paris is the greatest city in the world. — Edward Pickering (@EdwardPickering) July 24, 2022

22km to go: Boasson Hagen has a mechanical and grabs a replacement bike. That’ll be another lung-bursting effort to get back into the peloton, let alone do anything to try and lead out his teammate Peter Sagan.

Stage 2: PERROS-GUIREC→MUR-DE-BRETAGNE

• Date : Sunday, June 27
• Start time : 7:00 a.m. on Peacock , NBCSN

• Preview : The 2nd stage of the 2021 Tour de France is a 183.5-kilometer hilly stage that starts in Perros-Guirec and ends on the Mur-de-Bretagne in Guerledan. It features another 6 categorized climbs, all Category 3 or 4, including two climbs of the Mur-de-Bretagne. Between bonus seconds behind awarded atop the first Mur-de-Bretagne ascent and an uphill sprint to the finish line on the last climb, there could be an early swap of the yellow jersey.

Stage 3: LORIENT→PONTIVY

• Date : Monday, June 28
• Distance : 182.9 km (113.6 miles) – Flat
• Preview : The 3rd stage of the 2021 Tour de France is simpler flat stage, covering approximately 182.9 km and only featuring a pair of Category 4 climbs. In between those two climbs on the route from Lorient to Pontivy is an intermediate sprint at 118.3 km. With a flat road to the finish line, this stage should see the “pure” sprinters compete head-to-head for the first time in this year’s Tour.

Stage 4: REDON→FOUGERES

• Date : Tuesday, June 29
• Start time : 7:15 a.m. on Peacock , NBCSN

• Preview : The 4th stage of the 2021 Tour de France covers 150.4 km, as the best sprinters in the world will be on display for a second straight flat stage. The race from Redon to Fougeres is the only non-time trial stage in this year’s Tour without a single categorized climb. The stage features an intermediate sprint in the 2nd half of the stage at 114.4 km before another bunch sprint is expected at the finish line.

Stage 5: CHANGE→LAVAL

• Date : Wednesday, June 30
• Start time : 6:05 a.m. on Peacock , NBCSN
• Distance : 27.2 km (16.9 miles) – Individual Time Trial
• Preview : The 5th stage of the 2021 Tour de France is the first of two individual time trials, this one starting in Change and ending in Laval. It’s the first year since 2017 that the Tour has featured multiple individual time trials, which suggests the yellow jersey could be decided by which of the GC riders are the best time trialists. The rider who finishes the 27.2 km route on Stage 5 could very well be the new leader until at least the second week of racing.

Stage 6: TOURS→CHATEAUROUX

• Date : Thursday, July 1
• Start time : 7:45 a.m. on Peacock , NBCSN
• Distance : 160.6 km (99.8 miles) – Flat

Stage 7: VIERZON→LE CREUSOT

• Date : Friday, July 2
• Start time : 4:50 a.m. on Peacock , NBCSN
• Distance : 249.1 km (154.8 miles) – Hilly

The intermediate sprint comes before five categorized climbs, including the first Category 2 climb of the Tour, which will award bonus seconds atop the Signal d’Uchon. The course suggests it could be a successful day for the breakaway or a small group of all-rounders contending to wear yellow at the end of the first week.

Stage 8: OYONNAX→LE GRAND-BORNAND

• Date : Saturday, July 3
• Distance : 150.8 km (93.7 miles) – Mountain

After a first week without a lot of difficult climbing, the stage from Oyonnax to Le Grand-Bornand features three Category 1 climbs. With bonus seconds being awarded at the top of the Col de la Colombiere, the final climb of the day, the attention turns to the best climbers in the peloton.

Stage 9: CLUSES→TIGNES

• Date : Sunday, July 4

• Distance : 144.9 km (90 miles) – Mountain

• Distance : 190.7 km (118.5 miles) – Flat
• Preview : The 10th stage of the 2021 Tour de France covers 190.7 km following the first of two rest days. Unless there’s extreme crosswinds, expect a simple day on the course from Albertville to Valence. Just a single Category 1 climb and the intermediate sprint come in the first half of the stage before the peloton sets itself up for a probable bunch sprint at the finish line in a day suited for the green jersey contenders.

Stage 11: SORGUES→MALAUCENE

• Date : Wednesday, July 7
• Start time : 5:50 a.m. on Peacock , NBCSN
• Distance : 198.9 km (123.6 miles) – Mountain

With a late intermediate sprint in play, the green jersey race will be the highlight of the day.

Stage 13: NIMES→CARCASSONNE

• Date : Friday, July 9
• Start time : 5:55 a.m. on Peacock , NBCSN
• Distance : 219.9 km (136.6 miles) – Flat
• Preview : The 13th stage of the 2021 Tour de France covers a lengthy 219.9 km on the second straight day with a flat stage, starting where the previous day finished in Nimes. Once an early Category 4 climb is out of the way, the attention turns to the sprinters. While it does look like a straightforward day for the green jersey race, the finish town of Carcassonne has never seen a bunch sprint when it has hosted a finish line in the Tour.

Stage 14: CARCASSONNE→QUILLAN

• Date : Saturday, July 10
• Start time : 6:15 a.m. on Peacock , NBC
• Distance : 183.7 km (114.1 miles) – Hilly
• Preview : The 14th stage of the 2021 Tour de France covers 183.7 km. The race starts where it finished Stage 13 in Carcassonne and finishes in Quillan. The hilly stage features five categorized climbs, three of which are Category 2. The final climb of the day will award bonus seconds atop the Col de Saint-Louis. On paper, this looks like a day for the breakaway, with the heavier mountain stages still to come in the third week of the race .

Stage 15: CERET→ANDORRE-LA-VIEILLE

• Date : Sunday, July 11
• Start time : 6:10 a.m. on Peacock , NBCSN
• Distance : 191.3 km (118.9 miles) – Mountain
• Preview : The 15th stage of the 2021 Tour de France covers 191.3 km, a long mountain stage starting in Ceret and finishing in Andorre-la-Vieille. Let the third week of the Tour begin with four categorized climbs, including three Category 1 climbs, and bonus seconds up for grabs atop the Col de Beixalis. The riders will also endure the highest point of the Tour at over 2,400 meters on the Port d’Envalira.

Stage 16: PAS DE LA CASE→SAINT-GAUDENS

• Date : Tuesday, July 13
• Distance : 169 km (105 miles) – Hilly
• Preview : The 16th stage of the 2021 Tour de France covers 169 km following the final rest day of the race. Now that they’ve gotten another quick rest ahead of the most pivotal racing, the yellow jersey contenders might let the breakaway succeed on this hilly stage from Pas de la Case to Saint-Gaudens. Four spread-out categorized climbs make this an exciting opportunity for a strong breakaway specialist.

Stage 17: MURET→SAINT-LARY-SOULAN

• Date : Wednesday, July 14
• Start time : 5:45 a.m. on Peacock , NBCSN
• Distance : 178.4 km (110.9 miles) – Mountain
• Preview : The 17th stage of the 2021 Tour de France covers 178.4 km, kicking off the first of the final two mountain stages of the Tour, both of which are summit finishes. The GC battle heats up starting in Muret, where a flat lead-up to three tough categorized climbs will put the yellow jersey contenders to the test. The stage ends in Saint-Lary-Soulan on the Col du Portet - the HC summit finish taking riders to an elevation of over 2,200 meters.

Stage 18: PAU→LUZ ARDIDEN

• Date : Thursday, July 15
• Start time : 7:25 a.m. on Peacock , NBCSN
• Distance : 129.7 km (80.6 miles) – Mountain
• Preview : The 18th stage of the 2021 Tour de France covers 129.7 km, with the short-distance mountain stage a good indicator of a challenging day of climbing. After leaving Pau, the peloton will tackle two small Category 4 climbs in the first half of the day before two HC climbs in the second half. It’s the only stage in the Tour with multiple HC climbs, the latter a summit finish at Luz Ardiden. It’s the last opportunity for the GC riders to put themselves in good position ahead of the Stage 20 time trial two days later.

Stage 19: MOURENX→LIBOURNE

• Date : Friday, July 16
• Distance : 207 km (128.6 miles) – Flat
• Preview : The 19th stage of the 2021 Tour de France covers 207 km. Expect a casual day from the peloton on this flat stage following the last of the mountains the day earlier and the need for strong legs the next day in the time trial. If a courageous breakaway doesn’t take advantage of this, we should see another sprint finish in Libourne.

Stage 20: LIBOURNE→SAINT-EMILION

• Date : Saturday, July 17
• Distance : 30.8 km (19.1 miles) – Individual Time Trial
• Preview : The 20th stage of the 2021 Tour de France is the second individual time trial that covers 30.8 km. The stage starts in Libourne, where the previous stage finished, and ends in Saint-Emilion. After what happened on last year’s Stage 20 individual time trial, when the yellow jersey amazingly switched hands, brace for another exciting day that could decide the winner of the Tour for the second straight year.

Stage 21: CHATOU→PARIS - CHAMPS-ÉLYSÉES

• Date : Sunday, July 18
• Start time : 10:05 a.m. on Peacock , NBC
• Distance : 108.5 km (67.4 miles) – Flat
• Preview : The 21st stage of the 2021 Tour de France covers 108.4 km. The race starts in Chatou and includes a Category 4 climb at 7.4 km and an intermediate sprint at 68.3 km. The Yellow Jersey is traditionally often solidly settled on the shoulders of the final winner at the start of this last stage, but for the sprinters who dream of triumphing on the Champs-Élysées, it’s the opportunity to take on one of the toughest challenges of the year.

The Tour de France 2023 route in Google Earth

Thanks for all your work over the years! Really enjoy it to have all the race routes available in Google Earth.

Thank you very much for this. I am looking forward to it every year.

I was looking forward to open the kmz-file in Google Earth, but in a full hour of trying to download it, I din't succeed, nor by clicking the link nor by copy-pasting the url in a new window. I'll try again later.

I created a public iCal calendar based on this website and links to all stages. https://short.thover.com/?ID=863

Thanks again, Thomas! Like the others, each year I look forward to downloading the KMZ file.

Downloading the kmz file doesn't work, neither does the alternative link

As it happened: michael woods takes tour de france stage 9 as pogačar distances vingegaard.

182km culminating in the savage 13km summit finish of Puy de Dôme will determine the new general classification

Tour de France - Everything you need to know Tour de France route Tour de France favourites Moment of truth – The Puy de Dôme and the Tour de France’s greatest duel

Good morning and welcome to Cyclingnews' live coverage of stage 9 of the 2023 Tour de France! 

Today's 182.4km stage from Saint-Léonard-de-Noblat to the Puy de Dôme is one of the most anticipated stages in recent memory, with the fabled mountain top finish returning to Tour de France for the first time since 1988. We're set for a huge GC battle between the last two winners of the Tour, Jonas Vingegaard (Jumbo-Visma) and Tadej Pogačar (UAE Team Emirates), who are only separated by 25 seconds at the top of the overall standings. 

The start location for stage 9 in Saint-Léonard-de-Noblat is highly associated with cycling legend Raymond Poulidor as it was where he resided. Pou Pou was one of the stars of the 60s and 70s that battled with both Jacques Anquetil and Eddy Merckx on many occasion, earning him the nickname of 'The Eternal Second' having never won the Tour, but was a true fan-favourite. Today's full stage design is almost an homage to the great French rider with the Puy de Dôme also playing a part in his history. His legacy in the sport now lives on through his megastar grandson, Mathieu Van der Poel (Alpecin-Decuninck), and you may remember his full Alpecin team donning special kits on the opening stage of 2021 Tour de France to honour Poulidor. Here's a look at the special bike Van der Poel will ride today to remember his grandfather. 

#MerciPoupou 💜💛As stage 9 is starting in Saint-Léonard-de-Noblat, residence of French cycling legend #RaymondPoulidor, we will pay a tribute again to the grandfather of @mathieuvdpoel and #DVDP! 😍 First up: this amazing @canyon_bikes which #MVDP will be riding today! pic.twitter.com/ZUQvf6L1dg July 9, 2023

If you want to read more on the history of Poulidor's association with the Puy de Dôme, check out Barry Ryan's great feature on how he battled Anquetil on the slopes of the volcano in 1964, which led to one of cycling's most famous photographs. Moment of truth – The Puy de Dôme and the Tour de France’s greatest duel

Yesterday's dramatic stage was won by Mads Pedersen (Lidl-Trek) in a hilly run to the line in Limoges, but the headline of the day was undoubtedly the end of Mark Cavendish's (Astana Qazaqstan) 2023 Tour de France due to a crash in which he broke his collarbone. The Brit is now on his way back home to recover. 

We're now under half an hour away from the neutralised start in Saint-Léonard-de-Noblat on a day which should see the general classification race blown to pieces on the punishing inclines of the Puy de Dôme.

Aside from Cavendish, we saw another DNF yesterday in Steff Cras (TotalEnergies) who said he was knocked off his bike by a spectator in the approach to Limoges. We've had another DNS this morning, leaving our starting bunch at 169 riders as Quinn Simmons (Lidl-Trek) has been forced to leave the race after suffering from his injuries sustained in a heavy crash on stage 5. 

Unfortunately, we have to report that @QuinnSimmons9 will not start @LeTour today. Since his heavy crash on Stage 5, Quinn’s condition has not improved as we had hoped. He still feels stiffness and fatigue so we have decided to stop him to focus on his recovery. pic.twitter.com/GdvE1hExn5 July 9, 2023

We've seen historic winners atop the Puy de Dôme in the past through legends such as Fausto Coppi, Federico Bahamontes, Felice Gimondi, Luis Ocaña, Lucien Van Impe and Joop Zoetemelk. Who will include themselves in this illustrious list of some of cycling's heroes that have won here? 

Van der Poel was understandably full of emotions at the sign on and team presentation, even reduced to tears on stage in a place so important to his late grandfather and family. His team have Mercier coloured stripes on their shorts today as part of one of their homages to Pou Pou. 

#MerciPoupou 💜💛In honor of #RaymondPoulidor, our riders will be wearing a dedicated version of the #AlpecinDeceuninck’s team kit today, with a specific reference to this stage and the iconic Mercier/#MerciPoupou colours! #AlpecinDeceuninck #TDF2023 #MVDP 📷 @facepeeters pic.twitter.com/JHvFa4bFF6 July 9, 2023

Stage 9 of the Tour de France of underway from the neutralised start! We'll have just over 4km of riding in the départ fictif before the flag is waved and racing gets started. 

Here's Van der Poel being presented a bike of his grandfathers on stage during an emotional morning for him in his grandfather's former home town. There's been some lovely nods to the great rider this morning and today will mean a lot for Van der Poel. 

The sun is shining, it's baking hot and we're heading east towards the Massif Central. We've got a big day in store with the GC battle set to explode into life on the Puy de Dôme at the stage's finale. 

182.4KM TO GO

The flag has been waved out of the lead car by Christian Prudhomme and racing is underway on stage 9 of the Tour de France! Today is the almighty conclusion to one of the best first weeks in the history of this great race. Strap yourselves in and get ready for action. 

Straight from the gun we've got attacks flying. Victor Campenaerts (Lotto-Dstny) is the first to go, followed by a whole host of other breakaway hopefuls. 

We've got a split of around 10 riders forming with a bit of a blockage forming in the peloton. Is this the break of the day gone already?

Michael Woods (Israel-Premier Tech) has made this move and alongside Matteo Jorgenson (Movistar) could be a real threat for the victory if the break are given a big advantage. This leading group have 30 seconds already and seem to be the move of the day with three further stragglers trying to bridge the gap. 

Here's the composition of the group leading for now: - Neilson Powless (EF Education-EasyPost) - Matej Mohorič (Bahrain Victorious) - Clément Berthet (AG2R-Citroën) - Gorka Izaguirre (Movistar) - Matteo Jorgenson (Movistar) - Michael Woods (Israel-Premier Tech) - Guillame Boivan (Israel-Premier Tech) - David de a Cruz (Astana Qazaqstan) - Alexey Lutsenko (Astana Qazaqstan) - Jonas Abrhamsen (Uno-X) - Jonas Gregaard (Uno-X) - Mathieu Burgaudeau (TotalEnergies) - Pierre Latour (TotalEnergies)

175KM TO GO

The peloton still isn't happy with certain teams missing out. Soudal-Quick Step launched a late move to try and make it, but the break are working well for now. 

The gap is out at 1:00 and it will be very hard for any rider to bridge this gap. Trek and QuickStep are riding on the front behind and must be unhappy that they have missed it. Certainly not a calm start to the stage. Van Aert is interested at the front with Pedersen and Asgreen riding for now. 

Speeds are up at 70km/h in this rapid start to stage 9. Peter Sagan (TotalEnergies) has had a mechanical at the back of the bunch and is riding back into the peloton now. 

Our 14 riders at the head of the race are working nicely together and are trying to build their 53 second advantage. The fight for the break isn't over yet though. 

Dries Devenyns (Soudal-Quick Step) is shredding it on the front for his team and the gap is beginning to come to 45 seconds. Can they close this gap?

Ineos Grenadiers are the next to try and close this gap with Fred Wright (Bahrain Victorious) also trying to bridge to the leaders. Van der Poel and Skjelmose are also right up they're in this fight. 

Alaphilippe hits the accelerator and tries his luck to bridge this move. He's got a few companions with him and will want them all to cooperate to try and close this gap. He's got Egan Bernal (Ineos Grenadiers) and Rui Costa (Intermarché-Circus-Wanty) for help, but no consistent move is sticking. 

We've lost some sprinters out the back over one of the uncategorised climbs that characterise this region of France, Jordi Meeus (Bora-hansgrohe), Pedersen, Stuyven and Sam Welsford (dsm-firmenich). 

The last moves just petered out and the gap is back out to 1:00. We're still not completely settled, however. 

Skjelmose and Alberto Bettiol (EF Education-EasyPost) have gone of the front as a duo. This shouldn't work, however, as closing a 1:06 gap on your own is quite the task and Bettiol is not coming through to pull off the Dane's wheel with Powless already in the break for American squad. 

160KM TO GO

Alaphilippe has gone for it once again. Teams are getting desperate as they seem to believe they've missed the big moment. 14 strong riders and a group working well means they could be in with a chance of victory. 

EF are doing a nice job of stifling moves by sitting onto any pursuer that wants to try and bridge the gap to the leading group containing polka-dot jersey wearer, Powless. 

Jorgenson leads the break in what was a very quick formation as our group of 14 got away from the peloton as soon as the flag was dropped. 

They've sat up behind and finally the attacks have stopped. It will be intriguing to see how much of an advantage they are given with both Jumbo-Visma and UAE Team Emirates probably assuming their leader could take today's stage and the bonus seconds that would come with it. 

The break are about to mop up all the big points from an insignificant intermediate sprint alongside the Lac de Vassivière. Uno-X have shot off the front to take the points and the cash prize through Abrahamsen with Gregaard in second. 

Lilian Calmejane has just been taken down a fans decorative pole holding jerseys. An incredibly stupid crash being caused by a spectator. After what happened to Cras yesterday, it's not what you want to see. 

Israel-Premier Tech have done a tremendous job to get their top climber, Michael 'Rusty' Woods, in the break alongside Boivin. If you feel like you can remember Woods' Canadian compatriot, but can't place him, he was one of the riders that performed brilliantly in the wet edition of Paris-Roubaix in 2021. A great rider to have alongside Woods to pull him along on the flatter portions before the break reach the Puy de Dôme. 

🏁 150 km to goThe boys knew they needed to be in the break and Boivin and Woods were quick to join the right move.The group with G and Mike already has 4:30 minutes on the peloton. C’mon guys!___🇫🇷 #TDF2023 pic.twitter.com/QMo7w1kfC5 July 9, 2023

140KM TO GO

The break has an advantage of 8:33 for now. Sepp Kuss (Jumbo-Visma) has had a mechanical issue at the back of the bunch and is getting back in. 

Christophe Laporte (Jumbo-Visma) is giving himself a shower at the front of the peloton as he gets into his work. They won't ride too hard for now, but on a sweltering hot day, he'll need a few more of those before we reach the mountain top finish. 

Lidl-Trek will be gutted they've missed this move with either Ciccone or Skjelmose after seeing them be allowed an advantage of 9:18. Here's the moment Bettiol had to apologise to the Dane for not being allowed to offer him up a turn to try and bridge the gap with Powless already in their for EF and the American squad happy with the break's composition. 

TODAY'S TOUR DE FRANCE MENU

Here's what the riders have left to tackle before out explosive final climb: 107.6km to go: Climb - Côte de Felletin (2.1km at 5.2%) 96.7km to go: Climb - Côte de Pontcharraud (1.8km at 4.6%) 56.2km to go: Climb - Côte de Pontaumur (3.3km at 5.3%) Finish: Climb - Puy de Dôme (13.3km at 7.7%)

On such a hot day in the saddle, it will be incredibly important for all the riders to get their nutrition correct. There will be a lot of feeding and re-fueling before the end of the day. The Puy de Dôme will be tackled on a winding road that curls on the side of the volcano and the riders will be exposed to the sun and heat in central France. 

Everyone in the break is continuing to swap turns nicely as their advantage surpasses 10 minutes for the first time. 

We're approaching our first KOM point of the day at the Côte de Felletin (2.1km at 5.2%). There's only one point on offer and Powless will take it without challenge.

Powless now has 37 points in the polka-dot jersey competition and sits nine ahead of Felix Gall (AG2R-Citroën) in second. There are three more points available before the final climb to the Puy de Dôme. If he gets all of them, that would put him on 40 points, 21 ahead of Pogačar and 22 in front of Vingegaard, almost guaranteeing him another more days in the jersey with only 20 available over the top of the final ascent. 

100KM TO GO

Jumbo-Visma have, of course, taken up the mantle of controlling with the yellow jersey in their possession for now. They haven't made any impact on the break's 10:43 advantage yet, however. 

Powless is off again to go and get his second KOM point of the day at the top of the Côte de Pontcharraud (1.8km at 4.6%). 

All the sports directors are hot on their riders to ensure hydration and fuelling is maintained. If anyone gets it wrong and forgets to replenish their stores, they could be massively exposed on the Puy de Dôme. 

Here's Neilson Powless, our current polka-dot jersey wearer, on a day which has been very successful so far. He's increased his lead in the mountains classification, albeit by two points, and is one of the favourites to take victory from the break with a 10-minute advantage over the peloton with 87km left to ride. 

Woods is the big favourite in the GC group, with the most climbing pedigree, especially over the steepest inclines. The Canadian has won Grand Tour stages in his career, but only ever at La Vuelta a España. He'll desperately want to take victory on the Puy de Dôme today. 

Also keep an eye on Berthet in this leading group. He worked tirelessly for Gall on the climbs on stage 5 where the Austrian finished third behind Hindley and Ciccone. He's a very talented rider. 

Mechanical for Gregaard in the break. He's having a wheel change and will be happy the gap is over 10 minutes. They've gone for the slow back wheel switch instead of the spare bike oddly. He should be fine getting back on though, but every bit of energy wasted counts. 

An insect appears to have flown into the gap of Jorgenson's helmet and sunglasses and stung him on the head. He's back at the doctors motorbike and hopefully he'll be okay. 

Jumbo-Visma have been happy to give the break a huge advantage and the probable stage win. They clearly decided there was no chance they would pace for Pogačar to get bonus seconds in a final 'sprint' against Vingegaard and the stage win atop the Puy de Dôme as the Slovenian is the punchier of the two. 

🇫🇷 #TDF2023Our yellow jersey wearer is still getting better day by day.Jonas is looking forward to Puy de Dôme, and so are we. 🤩 pic.twitter.com/Q6mLV7KNcI July 9, 2023

All the teams are now taking musettes and bidons on what is an incredibly important day to get your fuelling correct with the heat and the difficulty of the final climb. 

Boivin has shot off the front in the break. Is he giving Woods something to bridge to over the next category 3 climb. 

Here's a look at the profile of our final climb. This shows how the 7.7% average gradient doesn't paint the full picture, as the middle kilometres skew this stat. The final 4.5km average over 11% gradient each and will be tackled on an incredibly narrow road without fans. The images of the riders doing battle should be incredible on the exposed mountainside road. 

Lutsenko is setting a hard tempo in the break to try and reduce its size form 14 to something more manageable. Boivin has been brought back in now. 

Campenaerts and Mohorič have accelerated in the break as they approach the top of the Côte de Pontaumur (3.3km at 5.3%). They will want to build an advantage over the top before the final climb if they can create separation. 

Powless responds and takes the two KOM points to add to his total which is now 40. 

It's important to note as we close in on our finale, that Jorgenson has the current Strava KOM over the Puy de Dôme which he completed in a recon ride from Clermont-Ferrand a few days before the Critérium du Dauphiné.

More attacks are flying out of the lead group as they continue to play games. Jorgenson, Woods, Lutsenko, Burgaudeau and Gregaard have separated away with Berthet chasing them down. 

Jorgensen is now all alone at the head of the race. The 24-year-old American has 12 seconds over the chasers for now as Boivin begins to drop off the back of the peloton. 

We're seeing some images of 400m from the finish line where rubber mats are having to be applied over a portion of road where the riders will have to cross over the rail tracks that lead up to the summit of the Puy de Dôme. Finishing touches are being applied before we see a Tour de France peloton race up the fabled climb for the first time in 35 years. 

It's nearly Puy de Dôme time. We're just under 27km away from the foot of our final climb, a mythical ascent with a long history in the Tour de France. We thought we might never race up here again, but organisers have found a way to return this nostalgic climb to the greatest bike race, albeit 35 years after it was last seen. 

Mohorič is trying to bridge the 30 second gap to Jorgenson at the head to the race. All sorts of games are going on in this leading group. 

Here's a look at our lone leader, Jorgenson. The young American has had his career best season with a win at the Tour of Oman, a great Classics season and an impressive second place at the Tour de Romandie behind Adam Yates (UAE Team Emirates). 

Those who are started to run out of energy are beginning to be left behind as the break is becoming more selective by the kilometre. Jorgenson's advantage is being cut down by a quartet including Mohorič, Powless, De la Cruz and Burgaudeau. 

It's reportedly 34 degrees at the bottom of the Puy de Dôme. It's a good thing there's a rest day tomorrow as the riders are going to be exhausted after today's efforts in the sweltering heat. 

Mohorič is clearly having a great day on the bike and is utilising all of his descending skills and aerodynamic positioning to maximise his power. He keeps hitting the other three chasers and is trying to bridge the 15 seconds over to Jorgenson. 

Jorgenson finished in the top 5 of three Tour de France stages in 2022 and came so close to that maiden victory. He'll be desperate to continue on with his solo move out in front and grind away at his competitors on the final climb to stand atop a podium at La Grand Boucle. 

The gap to Jorgenson has gone out to 30 seconds again as the chasing quartet aren't making a concerted effort to chase him, but are instead taking turns to attack. The stop-start nature of their chase is hurting their chances. 

De la Cruz has dropped his chain at the worst moment on the downhill. He's been forced to stop and it will be so difficult to see him make it back into the chasing quartet. 

Jorgensen is using 100% of the road in this small descending portion to try and maximise his speed and use less of the power he will want to save for the final climb. 

We've had an innocuous crash back in the peloton for Lars van den Berg (Groupama-FDJ) at the handover point of a musette. 

Jorgenson is doing a tremendous job of holding off the chasers for now with the gap stabilised at 37 seconds. He's been so good throughout 2023, but if he could pull of the win today that would be on a completely different level of incredible. 

Here we go, 35 years untouched by the Tour de France peloton and the Puy de Dôme is here. 13.3km at 7.7% average gradient. Can Jorgenson hold on? Or will someone from the chasing group come across and past him on the harshest gradient?

CURRENT SITUATION

At the foot of the climb, here's the current positions on the road: Head of the race - Jorgenson Chasing group with Mohorič, Powless and Burgaudeau - 1:01 Second chase group with Woods and Lutsenko etc. - 1:45 Peloton - 16:06

The American out in front is trying to regulate his temperature with constant watering from his bidon. He's got 12km of all out climbing ahead of him and won't want to overheat.

The GC teams are going to have their own race around 10 minutes after the breakaway finishes, and they are beginning to position themselves as they complete the run into the base of the Puy de Dôme. 

There are reports of a motorbike crashing in front of the peloton at such high speeds in the group behind. The drama is non-stop today. 

Powless gets out of the saddle momentarily on some of the final roads that will be lined by fans today. As said already, the road that curls around the final climb is so narrow so fans haven't been allowed onto it. The riders will only have the sound of their own thoughts and that of the few vehicles that ascend with them as they complete this hellish climb. 

The crowds are incredible on the lower slopes of the Puy de Dôme. It's no surprise to see such excitement with this legendary climb returning to its former glory again at the Tour de France. 

Powless is dancing on the pedals, but making no dent into his compatriot's advantage which still sits at 54 seconds. The third group on the road is a further minute behind them. 

Dsm-firmenich are setting it up in the GC group for their leader, Romain Bardet. He's from this area and will want to play a big role on home roads. 

Dylan van Baarle (Jumbo-Visma) has assumed his position back on the front of the peloton as one of the incredibly valuable and versatile riders that make up Jonas Vingegaard's mountain train. 

Jorgenson is closing in on the hardest section, the final 4.5km. Each of those kilometres average over 12% gradient as they snake around the outside of the dormant volcano in the Massif Central. 

Giulio Ciccone (Lidl-Trek) is one of the first climbers to drop out of the peloton with the stage win no longer on offer. 

Here's what Jorgenson has left to content with. He's got a 1:12 advantage and is on the verge of joining the likes of Coppi, Bahamontes, Van Impe, Gimondi, Ocaña and Zoetemelk as riders that have won a Tour de France stage atop the Puy de Dôme. 

🤩 Here we are: le Puy de Dôme ladies and gentleman!🤩 Nous y voilà: le Puy de Dôme mesdames et messieurs !#TDF2023 pic.twitter.com/akI09v4S2l July 9, 2023

Jorgensons' got his final greeting from the magnificent crowds we see at the Tour each year as he heads onto the restricted section and begins his fight with the steepest sections to hold off the chasers and take victory. 

Van Aert is now leading the peloton with Kelderman in his wheel and Vingegaard sat further back to avoid eating any of the headwind that pushes into the peloton. Pogačar isn't far behind. 

Kuss is making his way back up the peloton as the hardest section approaches. He'd been out of position previously, but was moving very easily towards the business end of things. 

Jonny Weltz was the last winner up here in 1988 and it's looking like Matteo Jorgenson is going to going him on that illustrious list of winners as his advantage keeps increasing to now 1:23. 

Ben O'Connor (AG2R-Citroën) has been dropped form the peloton. Mohorič has decided to leave his two companions in the chasing group and has set off in pursuit of Jorgenson on his own. Woods can be seen in the background coming across very quickly. 

2.5KM TO GO

Woods has passed Powless and Burgaudeau and he's got 2.6km to get across to Mohorič and then Jorgenson. 

Woods is absolutely flying up the Puy de Dôme for now as Mohorič's deficit to Jorgenson is falling to now 48 seconds. Van Aert's turn on the front is done and UAE Team Emirates have now come to the front of the peloton.

Jumbo-Visma have retaken control with Kelderman and Kuss the only remaining domestiques for Vingegaard. They are driving it on now in a small peloton with only the strongest GC riders left. 

Jorgenson's gap is rapidly falling, It's going to be touch and go on the line if he Woods and Mohorič can continue to eat into his advantage. Can the young American hold on?

Its completely split in the peloton with Kuss hitting the front and pulling away only the strongest climbers in Vingegaard, Pogačar and Simon Yates. 

1.2KM TO GO

Woods has flown by Mohorič and is pushing on out of the saddle. He could break Jorgenson's heart in the final kilometre. 

Jorgenson only has 20 seconds and Woods is closing in. The Canadian is absolutely destroying these steeper slopes and Woods is the strongest. He's got him in his sights. 

Its blown to pieces in the GC group with Bardet and Hindley both dropped. 

Woods is so close to Jorgenson. He's going to get him, but does the American have anything left to give in response. He's going to fly by him surely. 

Woods gets out of the saddle and kicks out of Jorgenson's wheel in the final 400m. Heartbreak for the American with so little left to ride on this legendary climb. Woods is going to write his name eternally into Tour de France history. What a climbing performance. 

STAGE FINISH

Michael Woods (Israel-Premier Tech) wins stage 9 of the 2023 Tour de France. Its the biggest win of the Canadian's career and an incredible moment for Canada at the Tour. What a climb, what a ride. Jorgenson was passed in the final 200m by both Latour and Mohorič in what was a heartbreaking end to the final climb. Chapeau young man. 

We've seen both the beautiful joy and painful brutality this sport so often provides for both Woods and Jorgenson respectively. A great day for North American cycling nonetheless. 

We've got a leading group of five in the GC group with Vingegaard, Pogačar, Yates, Rodríguez and Simon Yates. Yates picks it up on the front for a moment with Hindley dropped. 

Hindley is coming back which is forcing Yates into action especially after he lost time yesterday due to a late crash. Pogačar goes!

Here it is, the battle between our two main favourites and a gap is appearing in-between Vingegaard and Pogačar. Can the Dane hold on? He's looking behind him and beginning to drop. 

Vingegaard is by no means cracking, but he's not onto the wheel yet. It's our two protagonists battling it out on the Puy de Dôme, it's what we wanted, every second is going to count. 

The Slovenian kicks again with 500m to go on the steepest gradients. Vingegaard is measuring his effort well, but is going to lose time on stage 9. Can Vingegaard respond?

Here's a look at our stage winner, Woods on his career best victory. 

Pogačar enters the sunshine in the final few hundred and is sprinting on the final ramp to the line. he's emptying the tank over the line and he crosses the line with a big statement made. Vingegaard recovered well for a loss of around 8 seconds. 

Yates ands Pidcock have left Rodríguez and are the next best out of the GC group. Great performance by the young Brit and his experienced compatriot. 

Gaudu crosses the line with damage done to his time on GC. The rest of the GC group are coming over in dribs and drabs. 

Here's what a despondent Matteo Jorgenson (Movistar) had to say after having his heart broken by Michael Woods and finishing fourth on a stage he led for so long: "Yeah, I had to play my hand a little bit early, I knew if I went in that group I wouldn't be able to match Mike Woods and Neilson [Powless] I thought. So I knew that I had to either get in a small group or solo and ended up getting solo. From there I went all in and in the end, you just have to hope that behind they blow up or whatever cos a minute from the bottom of that climb wasn't enough, but I did what I could." "To be honest, the radio didn't work the whole of the climb. As soon as we started around the corner, the cars were at the bottom and I didn't have any radio, so the only time gap I had was the Moto and yeah he was telling me a minute, then 40 seconds, then 35, and 35 was the last one I got with I don't know, 1k to go and I just started to feel empty with 1k to go and then before I knew it Mike was there and passing me and it was a surprise but there was absolutely nothing I could do,"

Here's how Michael Woods reacted to achieving his career win and writing his name into eternal cycling history by winning on the Puy de Dôme: "I'm still having a pinch myself moment. Really proud of myself, really proud of my team yeah, this is special." "It was deafening until I got to about 4k to go, I couldn't hear anything and then all of a sudden silence. My ears were still ringing and I had a lot of time to think, a lot of time to suffer and just looking up the road trying to make as much time up on Jorgenson." "Yeah for sure, I'm 36 years old, turning 37 this year and not getting any younger. I've always talked about winning a stage at the Tour de France and I've finally achieved it. I just feel so fortunate to have so many great people behind me, my family, my team, Sylvain Adams and also my parents, my wife my kids. They've all supported me. I've had some tough times over the last year, but I'm back on top and really proud." "I wish I could say it was all planned. I wanted to be with Jorgenson in front, but it was just the way the cards played. It was really challenging when I knew I was probably the most marked man in that group and I ended up not playing my cards super right, but just had to be patient." "Then when I got to 4k to go I didn't really even think about going for the win, I just thought about doing a time trial to the top and then however hard I went, didn't matter the result, I'd just be proud of myself and my hardest was able to bring back Jorgenson so it was nice."

We had some movements on the GC today with Vingegaard losing 8 seconds to Pogačar. His lead in yellow is now only 17 seconds and is poised for an incredible battle in the second and third weeks of the 2023 Tour de France. Tom Pidcock (Ineos Grenadiers) also made a significant move from ninth to seventh overall by hanging onto the best climbers and Gaudu and Bardet fell to eighth and tenth overall respectively. 

After a first week like no other I've ever seen, the 110th Tour de France is poised perfectly as we head into the first rest day. The teams and riders will be recovering after a brutal opening nine stages and getting ready for more as we start to head towards the Alps. Clermond-Ferrand will play host to our 169 remaining riders and all the other staff involved tomorrow in central France with 12 stages left to complete. What other stories and drama will the second and third week hold? Make sure to check back to Cyclingnews' website as more content is produced from the team on the ground at the race over the next week and beyond. After the rest day, we'll return to racing on stage 10 with a hilly 167.2km stage from Vulcania to Issoire. 

That wraps things up for Cyclingnews' coverage of stage 9 of the 2023 Tour de France. What a stage it was and what a battle we witnessed on the Puy de Dôme's first return to the Tour since 1988. Michael Woods wrote his name into history and Tadej Pogačar made another small dent into Jonas Vingegaard's lead at the head of the race. Read Peter Stuart's full report below for an excellent summary of the day's action and make sure to check back tomorrow for all the news coming out on the rest day.

Tour de France 2024 Route stage 3: Piacenza - Turin

Although the route features three KOMs, the hills are nothing special. Neither in length, nor in gradients. The riders cross the Po Valley from east to west.

The 2021 Giro d’Italia also included Piacenza as a starting venue. The race went to Sestola and Joe Dombrowski took the win from the breakaway. In 2022 Turin was the end station of one of the most exciting stages of that edition. The race concluded with several laps on a hilly finishing circuit east of Turin. Simon Yates took the win, 15 seconds ahead of the first chasers, Jai Hindley, Richard Carapaz and Vincenzo Nibali.

The climbers can keep their heads down this time. The route is tailor made for the sprinters.

Loudenvielle

14/07/2024 - stage 15 - 198 km - mountain.

LOUDENVIELLE

In 1997, the first of the four finishes in this town in the Hautes-Pyrénées was the setting for bravura performances by French riders on Bastille Day. Clad in the polka-dot jersey, Laurent Brochard claimed his only Grand Tour victory that day, just a few weeks before adding the world championship title to his palmarès. In his wake, Cédric Vasseur managed to hold on to the Yellow Jersey he had won four days earlier at La Châtre by a mere 13 seconds. Gilberto Simoni (2003) and Kim Kirchen (2007) also won here. In 2020, another Frenchman, Nans Peters, emerged from a breakaway to win in Loudenvielle on his first Tour appearance.

Tour du Pays basque : Parcours, favoris et diffusion télé… Tout savoir de l’édition 2024

• Voir sur la carte

Le parcours du Tour du Pays basque

Chaque année, le parcours du Tour du Pays basque est plus adapté aux puncheurs et aux grimpeurs. L’édition 2024 ne déroge pas à la règle et proposera de nouveau un tracé accidenté, avec de nombreuses difficultés et des arrivées délicates à aborder.

À l’occasion de la première journée de course, les organisateurs ont prévu un contre-la-montre individuel autour de la ville d’Irun. Dix kilomètres avec du relief puisqu’il faudra grimper dans la première moitié du parcours l’Olaberria (1,7 km à 5,2 %).

Puis la deuxième étape, également au départ d’Irun, le caractère accidenté du tracé pourrait bien convenir à une échappée laissant peu d’opportunités au peloton sur la route de Cambo-les-bains. La troisième étape est la plus longue de cette édition (190,9 km), avec six difficultés à noter entre les villes d’Espelette et d’Altsasu.

Jeudi 4 avril, les coureurs prendront le départ à Etxarri Aranatz et auront à faire à un faux plat montant régulier sur les 25 premiers kilomètres, en surmontant l’Opakua (7,1 km à 5,8 %) la véritable difficulté de la journée, avec une arrivée prévue à Legutio. La cinquième étape entre Vitoria-Gasteiz et Amorebieta-Extano donnera sans doute lieu à un final spectaculaire en descente, après avoir gravi Urkiola (5,5km à 9,4 %) en plein milieu de la journée.

Les organisateurs ont réservé un bouquet final haletant autour d’Eibar. Samedi 6 avril, l’étape reine (137,8 km) est de loin la plus attendue et la plus spectaculaire de la semaine. Et pour cause, pas moins de sept difficultés se dresseront sur la route des coureurs.

Et pas des moindres puisque la plupart des sommets pointent à près de 700 m d’altitude et cachent pour certains des pourcentages à deux chiffres. La différence pourrait se faire dans les terribles Krabelin (5 km à 9,6 %) ou Izua (4,1 km à 9,2 %)

Les favoris

Avec Jonas Vingegaard, Remco Evenepoel et Primoz Roglic, cette édition 2024 du Tour du Pays basque propose un plateau très relevé à partir de lundi, pour une semaine qui sera très probablement riche en enseignements en prévision du Tour de France, à la fin du mois de juin.

Hormis Tadej Pogacar, qui prépare le Giro dans son coin, toutes les têtes d’affiche sont attendues et se mesureront lors de six étapes jusqu’à samedi. Sepp Kuss, Simon Yates, Jai Hindley, Felix Gall, Tom Pidcock, Juan Ayuso, Mattias Skjelmose, Warren Barguil et David Gaudu, seront de la partie pour égayer la semaine entre le Tour des Flandres et Paris-Roubaix.

Ce casting digne d’un Tour de France promet des étincelles sur un parcours forcément vallonné mais ne proposera pourtant pas d’arrivée au sommet malgré la configuration particulièrement montagneuse.

La semaine regorge de points d’intérêt. Ce sera la première fois qu’on retrouve trois des quatre principaux candidats à la victoire sur le Tour de France sur la même course cette année. Ce sera aussi la première fois que Vingegaard, double vainqueur du Tour de France, sera opposé à son ancien coéquipier Roglic depuis le départ du Slovène de l’équipe Visma cet hiver.

Tour des stades: Manchester City-Arsenal bouillant, Bayern-Dortmund réchauffé

Le combat au sommet entre Manchester City et Arsenal pour la première place en Angleterre domine le week-end européen de football, le "Klassiker" allemand Bayern Munich-Borussia Dortmund étant un peu dévalué, entre deux rivaux trop loin du leader Leverkusen.

. Angleterre: Forest dans le rouge, dimanche écarlate

Deux stades, deux ambiances, ce week-end pour la reprise de la Premier League.

Chez Nottingham Forest, c'est la soupe à la grimace avant d'accueillir Crystal Palace, samedi (16h00). Le club des Midlands entame la 30e journée comme premier relégable après avoir été sanctionné d'un retrait de quatre points pour infractions financières et se retrouve un point derrière Luton (17e, 22 pts), premier non-relégable en déplacement samedi à Tottenham.

Bien loin de ces sueurs froides, un intense combat se profile à l'Etihad stadium, dimanche (17h30) entre Manchester City (63 pts), triple champion en titre, et l'actuel leader Arsenal (64 pts). 

Juste avant ce sommet, le deuxième Liverpool (64 pts) tentera de mettre la pression sur ses concurrents, dimanche (15h00) à Anfield, en recevant une équipe de Brighton ionconstante cette saison.

Manchester United, sixième, essaiera de renforcer ses chances de qualification européenne samedi (21h00) aux dépens de Brentford, quinzième après quatre derniers mois ratés en championnat (12 défaites en 16 matches depuis début décembre).

. Espagne : deuxième place en jeu et potentiel retour de Griezmann

Après la trêve internationale, la 30e journée doit relancer la course à la deuxième place entre le Barça (2e, 64 pts) en quête d'un septième match sans défaite, et Gérone (3e, 62 pts), défait lors de la dernière journée. 

Les deux jouent à domicile mais le match de Gérone contre le Bétis Séville (7e, 42 pts), vendredi soir, devrait être plus accroché que celui du Barça opposé à Las Palmas (11e, 37 points).

À l’Atlético Madrid (5e, 55 pts), le retour d'Antoine Griezmann à l'entraînement collectif cette semaine peut rassurer. Son potentiel retour devrait rassurer les Colchoneros en déplacement à Villarreal (9e, 38 pts) ce lundi.

La seule grosse affiche du week-end concerne le leader Real Madrid (72 pts) qui accueille l'Athletic Bilbao (4e, 56 pts) dimanche soir. 

. Italie: première très exposée pour Tudor

Pour ses débuts à la tête de la Lazio Rome, Igor Tudor est gâté: samedi (18h00), il retrouve la Juventus Turin, club où il a fait une bonne partie de sa carrière de joueur et qu’il a brièvement entraîné.

L’ancien coach de Marseille a hérité d’un groupe (9e) qui a perdu pied en mars avec trois défaites en quatre matches. La Juve que la Lazio retrouvera en avril en demi-finales de la Coupe d’Italie n’a empoché que sept points sur ses huit derniers matches et a été rétrogradé à la 3e place, à 17 points de l’Inter et à trois longueurs de l’AC Milan. Le Milan se déplace samedi (20h45) à Florence pour affronter la Fiorentina (8e), endeuillée par la disparition brutale de son directeur général.

Le coup d’envoi de la 30e journée sera donné par Naples (7e) qui reçoit samedi (12h30) l’Atalanta (6e) pour un duel de prétendants à l’Europe. 

Pâques oblige, aucun match ne sera disputé dimanche. Il faudra attendre lundi dans la soirée (20h45) pour que l’Inter reçoivent Empoli (17e): après son nul face à Naples (1-1) et l’affaire Acerbi, le leader peut faire un pas supplémentaire vers le 20 titre de champion de son histoire.

. Allemagne: Klassiker sans saveur?

Le Klassiker du football allemand entre le Bayern et le Borussia Dortmund domine la 27e journée du championnat d'Allemagne samedi (18h30), avec un peu moins de saveur que les saisons précédentes, puisque pour la première fois depuis 2009-2010, aucun des deux mastodontes n'occupe la première place de Bundesliga lors de l'opposition retour.

Les Munichois comptent dix points de retard (60 contre 70) sur le leader, le Bayer Leverkusen. Pour un 12e titre consécutif de champion d'Allemagne, les hommes de Thomas Tuchel ne peuvent qu'espérer au moins quatre faux-pas du "Werkself" lors des neuf dernières journées.

Touché à l'adducteur gauche (déchirure), Manuel Neuer est plus qu'incertain, alors qu'Harry Kane, blessé à Darmstadt le 16 mars, a repris en partie l'entraînement collectif.

De son côté, Dortmund ne compte qu'un point d'avance sur le RB Leipzig dans la lutte pour la quatrième place, qualificative pour la prochaine Ligue des champions, et entame un mois d'avril infernal, avec quatre matches contre des équipes du top-5 de Bundesliga et un quart de finale de C1 contre l'Atlético Madrid.

Avant ce Klassiker, Leverkusen reçoit samedi (15h30) Hoffenheim. Les hommes de Xabi Alonso, toujours invaincus (38 matches, 33 victoires), débutent un enchaînement huit matches en 29 jours (dont cinq en championnat) qui peut aboutir à un premier titre de champion d'Allemagne.

Quatre finisseurs ont bouclé les 75 km de sentiers gersois en pleine forêt pour la 3e édition de la Barklauch

l'essentiel Pour cette troisième édition, ils sont quatre coureurs aguerris à avoir bouclé la Barklauch. Une folle course de 75 km dans le bois d’Auch qui s’est déroulé entre le vendredi 29 mars et le samedi 30 mars.

Ludique mais exigeante, c’est la Barklauch. Une course nocturne en plein cœur du Gers dans le bois d’Auch, organisée par Philippe Fourment. Le top départ a été donné le vendredi 29 mars, à 18 heures pour la nouvelle édition 2024. Les règles ? Réaliser 5 tours du bois sur un parcours d’environ 15 km révélé une heure seulement avant le départ ! Une dizaine de livres étaient disposés sur le circuit. Pour prouver qu’un tour complet a bien été effectué, il suffisait d’arracher la page correspondante à son dossard. Il ne fallait surtout pas oublier la frontale…

1 400 m de dénivelé positif, 75 km, une course de nuit, un temps imposé par tour et aucune assistance autorisée : ce n’est pas la Barkley. Mais pour espérer finir la course mieux vaut avoir une bonne paire de souliers et un mental d’acier.

« Un vrai régal », pour les participants qui ont affronté un tracé quelque peu humide. Ils étaient 16 en tout à avoir pris le départ. Une fois de plus, les coureurs ont pris leur pied et ils n’hésitent pas à le faire savoir. L’organisation ne démérite pas. « Je crois n’avoir jamais pris autant de plaisir à participer à un événement de course à pied », écrit l’un des participants.

Fin de course à 6 h 18, le lendemain du départ. Les deux dernières éditions comptaient trois finisseurs par course. Cette année, ils sont quatre à avoir bouclé la Barklauch dans les règles ! Gauthier Benquet, Benjamin Benquet, Ronan Pierre et Frédéric Baup pour sa deuxième année consécutive, ont défié le bois d’Auch pour une folle aventure sur les sentiers battus auscitains.

Euro 2024: les stades et villes hôtes qui accueilleront la compétition en Allemagne

Le 14 juin prochain débutera l’Euro 2024 en Allemagne . Pendant un mois, jusqu’au 14 juillet, le pays vivra au rythme du football dans dix stades et villes hôtes. C’est la première fois depuis la Coupe du Monde 2006 que l'Allemagne accueille un tournoi majeur.

Dans quelles villes se déroulera l'Euro 2024?

Les dix villes retenues pour accueillir les rencontres de cet Euro 2024 sont Berlin, Cologne, Francfort, Gelsenkirchen, Hambourg, Munich, Dortmund, Leipzig, Düsseldorf et Stuttgart.

Pour leur match d’ouverture, les Bleus défieront l’Autriche, du côté de l’Esprit Arena à Düsseldorf, le 17 juin à 21 heures.

Tour des Flandres : le classement de la course remportée par Mathieu Van der Poel

Le Néerlandais a gagné son 3e Tour des Flandres au terme d’une échappée solitaire de 45 km. L’Italien Luca Mozzato a gagné le sprint pour la 2e place. Les Français sont loin au classement.

Dans la légende. Le champion du monde néerlandais Mathieu Van der Poel a remporté, ce dimanche à Audenarde, le Tour des Flandres, l’un des cinq Monuments du cyclisme . Il s’agit de sa 3e victoire dans cette classique belge, l’une des cinq plus grandes courses d’un jour (avec Milan - San Remo, Paris-Roubaix , Liège-Bastogne-Liège et le Tour de Lombardie).

Le petit-fils de Raymond Poulidor établit un record avec cette troisième victoire sur le « Ronde » (après 2020 et 2022), que seuls 6 autres coureurs ont réussi jusque-là. Aucun coureur n’a encore gagné 4 fois cette course de légende. Pour remporter son 3e Tour des Flandres, Mathieu Van der Poel (Alpecin-Deceuninck) a fait le ménage avec la concurrence en s’échappant dans le Koppenberg , à 45 km de l’arrivée.

Ses poursuivants n’ont pu que se disputer la seconde place, au sprint, dans un petit groupe à plus d’une minute réglé par Luca Mozzato. L’Italien de l’équipe française Arkéa B&B Hôtels a devancé un trio de l’équipe UAE Team Emirates, Nils Politt (3e), Mikkel Bjerg (4e) et Antonio Morgado (5e).

Le premier Français, Valentin Madouas (Groupama-FDJ), a terminé dans un 3e groupe. Le champion de France est 16e, à plus de deux minutes. Julian Alaphilippe (Soudal-Quick Step), lui, a fini beaucoup plus loin, à plus de 7 minutes de l’intouchable « VDP ».
