Stage info
The Tour's only individual time trial... and it won't be flat. On the shores of Lake Geneva, the favourites will go all in on a contre-la-montre best described as mixed.
The first half features a long climb, the Côte de Larringes (cat. 2), nearly 10 km at 4%, the kind where staying tucked in and holding focus will be key. The descent, really technical, will be pivotal to the end result.
