The climb in the Vosges is expected to be the first mountain-top finish of the 20🌟19 Tour de France, coming on stage 6 next July.
The Tour de France has finished atop La Planche des Belles Filles three times. Chris Froome was the first winner on the steep climb in �🃏�2012, while Vincenzo Nibali won in 2014, and fellow Italian Fabio ꦆAru was the𝓡 latest in 2017.
Race organisers ASO have indicated the Tour de France will include more gravel sections after riders were given a taster on the Plateau des Glières on stage 10 this year and the dirt-road Cole delle Finestre proved decisive in the Giro d’Italia. ASO added dirt sections to this year’s Paris-Tours, and Tour de France technical director Thierry Gouvenou, who rides a gravel bike during his holidays, has promised more innovative race routes.
