The final stage of this year’s Tour de France will go up the Butte Montmartre, a year after the road race of the Paris Olympics went on the iconic hill, organizers said on Wednesday.
\n“An exceptional route has been designed, inspired by the course of the road race at the 2024 Olympic Games, which drew over 500,000 spectators last August,” Amaury Sport Organization said in a statement.
\n“The riders will climb Montmartre hill and pass at the foot of the Sacre-Coeur before contesting a stage whose scenario could break with the traditions established over the past 50 years in the heart of the capital.”
\nThe Tour has been finishing on the Champs Elysees every year since 1975, at the exception of 2024, when it ended up in Nice.
\nThe Champs Elysees stage is usually a procession to the avenue, where only the final sprint is contested, but this year’s route is likely to break this scenario, Reuters reported.
\nThe Tour starts on July 5 in Lille and ends on July 27.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
