Tour de France Femmes

The fifth edition of the Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift is built entirely around today’s appointment. Mont Ventoux will define the race and should leave the general classification heavily thinned out—perhaps even settled—before the finale in Nice.

The Giant of Provence is climbed from its hard side, via Bédoin and Chalet-Reynard. The opening part runs through the trees, always at around 9%, before the final seven kilometres, completely exposed to the wind, in the characteristic lunar landscape. The gradients ease until 2 km from the summit, when the road steepens again towards the finish mast, with a decisive section at 9.5%.
