Tour de France
About This Race
Tour de France is a grand tour on the UCI WorldTour calendar, held in France. The race spans 23 stages, demanding all-around performance from the peloton — from sprinters to climbers to all-rounders. Grand Tour contenders typically target the general classification with stage wins as a secondary goal.
Every WorldTour team fields a roster of specialists tailored to the course profile. Riders will compete using equipment from a small number of approved manufacturers, with all bikes, computers, and power meters meeting strict UCI technical regulations.
