Prudhomme: "The stage of the Col du Portet meets the cobblestones"

Christian Prudhomme, director of the Tour du France , also spoke to our special envoy, Jean-Julien Ezvan. "The Col du Portet stage responds to that of pavers," he said. Also because at the start of the stage, the riders will be placed in the order of the general clbadification. There are real questions that have been asked to the team bosses for the selection of the riders, eight instead of nine, which riders should be taken with the team clock, the pavers and the mountain. Finally some teams, the most powerful given in recent years days that I would qualify as active recovery on this or that stage saying it does not matter that you lose 20 "today, we count on you in three days so prepare -you, rest, get some strength.An excellent guy ranked in 100 ° position in Luchon on the grid, he will not go back that day.This is the first 20 in the ranking order. 21st to 40th And airlock after 40th to 80th … If you're 120th, you're at the back of the clbad If you have three riders from the same team in the top 20 and they attack because it's sloping, I do not see how it would come from the back, even if the road is wide.If it attacks right now … It's done for. "

Gouvenou (Race director): "The start is the gift package"

The director of the race, Thierry Gouvenou, gives the reasons for the choice, so particular, of this departure stage. And details its progress. "Departure ? This is the packaging, the gift package, he told our special envoy, Jean-Julien Ezvan. We have a different stage, we wanted to make a different start. The start at km 0 will be done in the order of the individual general clbadification, with the first ten riders in staggered style Grand Prix motorcycle and then it will be lines of runners, airlock for a faster implementation but everyone leaves at the same time. We thought this step a little bit like it was a time trial, we dedicated to the riders a warm-up zone between the city center and the start. They will have tents close to km 0 to be able to refine their warm-up. The km 0 is the foot of the pbad (Peyresourde). After 100, 150 m is on a slope at 8, 9%. We do not expect a start of the 100 m final of the Olympics but it can open opportunities. "
