Tour de France Stage 3 Without Fans Due to Wildfire Threat

The 195.5km stage from Granollers to Les Angles will start at 11.10am BST/12.10pm CET without fans in attendance as wildfires continue to pose a threat to the region. The route features a category-one climb, the Col de Toses, which spans 9.3km at a 6.5% gradient.

According to technical director Thierry Gouvenou, the stage is perfect for attackers, with a challenging finale including the Col du Calvaire and a final 1.5km climb to Les Angles at a seven percent gradient. This presents a significant opportunity for riders to secure a stage win and potentially take the yellow jersey. hilogame.news
