At 222.5 kilometres, the 19th stage is the longest ride in the 2017 Tour de France. With the exception of the last 30 kilometres, the route features hardly any flat sectors, yet the climbs are doable. Without a doubt, this stage would have come down to a bunch sprint in the first week of the Tour de France – after almost three weeks in the saddle, that’s merely a possibility. Are there any sprint teams left to chase down the attackers? And the route might be doable, it is not flat at all.
Col de Lebraut and Côte de Bréziers are the KOM climbs in the first 50 kilometres before the course continues on rolling roads to Col de Pointu. This 5.8 kilometres climb at 4.1% is crested with 45 kilometres remaining. That final section to the line in Salon-de-Provence is flat or runs downhill, so in theory it’s perfect to chase the breakaway down.
