Tour de France 2023 route presentation - Live coverage

Tourmalet and closing time trial headline women's race as men get puy de dôme and single 22km time trial.

Tour de France 2023 route revealed – mountainous profile, only 22km of time trialling and four summit finishes How to watch the 2023 Tour de France route presentation – live streaming 2023 Tour de France expected to include early TTT and Alpine TT Jonas Vingegaard: Defending the Tour de France is hard but I’m up for the challenge

Hello and welcome to our live coverage of the route presentation of the 2023 Tour de France and Tour de France Femmes .

We're just under half an hour away from the start of the presentation.

After starting in the Basque Country in northern Spain, the men's race is set to feature an early visit to the Pyrenees before a second-week return to the Puy de Dôme mountain. 

Week three, meanwhile, is set to bring several Alpine stages, a short time trial, and a final summit finish in the Vosges before heading to Paris.

These are all 'rumours' at this stage, though thanks to leaks and other information floating around there's a good picture of what to expect already out there.

Tour de France 2023 routes – All the rumours ahead of the official presentation

Information on next year's routes ahead of Thursday's presentation

The route presentation is around 10 minutes away now. Find out how to watch it with our handy guide.

The route presentation is underway!

Riders cross the stage on the way to their seats.

Reigning Tour de France Femmes champion Annemiek van Vleuten is there, as is two-time Tour champion Tadej Pogačar . 

Others in attendance include Tom Pidcock , Marta Cavalli, Mark Cavendish , Alexey Lutsenko, Audrey Cordon-Ragot , Michael Matthews, Greg Van Avermaet, and Elise Chabbey.

There's plenty of French representation too, with Valentin Madouas, Nacer Bouhanni, Evita Muzic , Pierre Latour, Juliette Labous, David Gaudu , and Aude Biannic also in attendance.

Now for a short film about the 2022 races as we begin the gradual hype towards the route presentations...

And now the ASO president Jean-Étienne Amaury is up on the stage giving a speech to open the festivities.

He's talked about the upcoming Netflix series, the first-ever Tour de France Femmes, and now's he's thanking the Tour's partners and sponsors for helping it all happen.

Now time for some highlights from the Tour de France Femmes...

It's a bit of a long build-up to the actual route presentation itself...

Now time for race directors Christian Prudhomme and Marion Rousse to talk.

While plenty of details of the men's route are out there, little is known about the women's route. A move away from Paris and a trip to the Tourmalet are the biggest rumours.

Top riders welcome rumoured move away from Paris for the 2023 Tour de France Femmes

Another video now as the Tour de France Femmes route is announced!

Clermont-Ferrand and the Massif Central host the start.

Here's the map!

A stage up the Tourmalet and a closing time trial in Pau are the big highlights here.

Here's the opening stage, a 124km stage around Clermont-Ferrand with a hilly finish.

Stage 2 is a longer one at 148km as the riders head south to Mauriac. A hilltop finish at the Côte de Trébiac awaits.

The third stage provides a chance for the sprinters in Montignac-Lascaux. Five categorised climbs on the way provide chances for riders to battle for the KOM jersey.

Stage 4 to Rodez is a challenging hilly stage which should shake up the GC in a big way. At 177km it's by far the longest of the race and features three classified climbs inside the final 40km.

Stage 5 to Albi looks like another one for the sprinters, though there are several hills along the way.

The sixth stage reaches south towards the Pyrenees and brings the final chance of the race for the sprinters. 122km to Blagnac.

Now for the big one – stage 7. At 90km it's short and sweet but the race up the Col de Tourmalet will be a huge GC flashpoint and possibly decide the race for good. As if that wasn't enough, the Col d'Aspin features, too.

On day 8, the race concludes with a time trial in Pau, with a 22km test against the clock possibly giving us a final stage showdown for the yellow jersey.

956km of racing across three regions, 11 departments and two mountain ranges.

And now we look back on the 2022 men's race ahead of that route presentation.

Here's our first look at the 2023 Tour de France Femmes route.

The 2023 Tour de France Femmes will also feature seven-rider teams, up from the six-rider teams that competed at the inaugural edition this summer.

This is a long video looking back at the 2022 Tour... We're up to stage 11.

We're almost at the end of this highlight video. Not long now before we see the actual route...

Here we go!

Prudhomme giving a speech again now as he talks about the Basque start to the 2023 race.

Here's a look at the map of the start. The race kicks off in Bilbao, the first of three stages in the region.

Time for another speech, this time from Íñigo Urkullu Renteria, the president of the Basque regional government.

Another long speech here.

The speech is over but now there's a video about the Basque Country.

I'm sure we'll see the route soon!

Prudhomme is back on stage now. Time for another speech!

He says "It's time to unwrap the route of the Tour." Finally.

Three Basque stages before heading north to two mountain stages in the Pyrenees on stages 5 and 6. Stage 6 brings a summit finish at Cauterets.

The second week heads across central France, taking in the summit finish at the Puy de Dôme on stage 9 and then moving east towards the Alps. A summit finish at Grand Colombier comes on stage 13.

Week 3 is, of course, the big one. Three big Alpine stages on the way, including summit finishes at Saint-Gervais Mont-Blanc and Courchevel. Stage 16 brings the only time trial of the race, a hilly 22km affair in Combloux.

Two hilly/sprint stages follow the Alps before the final big test of the race, a mountain stage to Le Markstein in the Vosges on stage 20.

A look at stage 6, the first summit finish of the race in the Pyrenees (stage 5 is a flat finish in Laruns after two major climbs). It's a tough early test with the Col d'Aspin and the Col du Tourmalet featuring on the way to the finish at Cauterets (16km at 5.4%).

We don't have the full profile for stage 9 to the Puy de Dôme, but here's a look at the brutal finale. 13.3km at 7.7% with over 4km in double-digit gradients to finish.

After the stage 13 summit finish of Grand Colombier (17.4km at 7.1%), stage 14 brings another Alpine test with the Col de Ramaz and the Col de Joux Plane featuring on the way to a downhill finish to Morzine.

More climbing on the very next day as the riders will tackle the summit finish of Saint-Gervais Mont-Blanc. It's 7.2km at 7.7% and comes right before the second rest day.

After that rest day, the peloton will reconvene for the only time trial of the race from Passy to Combloux. It's a short one at 22km, but features a major climb to the finish, with the Côte de Domancy (2.5km at 9.4%) on the way before the road keeps rising to the line.

There's time to squeeze in one last Alpine mountain stage before the race heads away to the north. Stage 17 brings the Col de Saisies, Cormet de Roselend, Côte de Longefoy, and Col de la Loze before a short downhill run to the finish in Courchevel.

Two transition stages – one hilly, one flat – follow, before the final test ahead of the final stage in Paris. The Tour heads to the Vosges for stage 20 and a 133km mountain stage to Le Markstein.

The steep slopes of the Petit Ballon (9.3km at 8.1%) and the Col du Platzerwasel (7.1km at 8.4%) will play host to the final GC battles of the 2023 Tour.

In total, eight mountain stages including four summit finishes, one time trial, and eight days for the sprinters.

Two-time Tour winner Tadej Pogačar and reigning Tour de France Femmes champion Annemiek van Vleuten watch the route presentation. Will they have liked what they saw?

Here's the full story on the route of the 2023 Tour de France.

Of course, with the men's Tour de France nine months away, it's far too early to choose our favourites. And yet, we simply can't resist weighing up how the route may or may not favour the strongest GC contenders in the peloton.

Read our complete analysis of the favourites ahead of next year's race:

Tour de France 2023 – Analysing the contenders after the route reveal

While it's too soon to say how the 2023 men's Tour de France will pan out, the route certainly sheds some light on who may be the favourites coming into the race.

While nine months is a long time, here's our assessment of the major contenders for the 2023 Tour after the route reveal.

• 2 Pogačar, UAE Team Emirates top UCI rankings, Astana losing fight against relegation
• 3 Wiebes, Vollering aiming for Tour de France Femmes repeat on home soil

Tour de France 2022 Presentation LIVE

By Jens on Oct 14, 2021, 5:10am EDT 108

Season is coming to a close and as usual ASO put on their big unveiling party of next year's TdF route so that we can get the talk of next season started already. This year has a special bonus, the presentation of the first ever Tour de France Femmes (we're being generous and not yammering on about all those old editions of the race that they cancelled long ago, fresh start).

Fairly little speculation and leaks around about the 2022 routes which is nice. We know they start in Copenhagen and Paris but not too much more.

My only firm prediction: having the women's race and some women riders here will improve the fashion sense at the presentation by at least 50%. Allez!

PodiumJen Reports: Tales from le podium at the Tour de France

Velonews columnist jennifer caudill answers some faqs about the life of a podium girl, and gives her opinion of the tour de france podium wardrobe..

Heading out the door? Read this article on the new Outside+ app available now on iOS devices for members! >","name":"in-content-cta","type":"link"}}'>Download the app .

• Editor’s Note: Jen Caudill is a model, podium girl, and journalist who also happens to be the girlfriend of Garmin-Transitions’ pro Steven Cozza. This is her fifth column for VeloNews.com this year.
• Author’s Warning: This column contains fluffy content. Fluffy like champagne, ewwy gooey podium kisses and girls in fancy dresses.

Even if your significant other isn’t riding in the Tour de France, you’re still enveloped in the race. OK, at least I am. Steven trains early (mostly to avoid the extreme summer heat) and then returns home for a few hours of high quality recovery executed by watching the Tour de France on Teledeporte, our free Spanish sports station. I usually fall asleep to the lull of the Spanish commentary, but occasionally I wake up to Steven’s enthusiastic narrative of the race. “300 meters to go! Tyler’s got Dean and Hunter leading him out! Do you see how they’re doing that? Man, I wish I was there!” Or, “Ryder is STILL in the front group! This is so awesome! Wake up, Jen, you have to see this!”

The Andy/Alberto controversy is one thing, but remember that I am a podium hostess and therefore another aspect of the podium has caused my mouth to drop. If you’ve watched Cancellara, Voeckler, Contador or Schleck on the podium, you’ve probably caught a horrible glimpse of the podium attire at the awards presentations. Friends, family and fans email to me frequently to ask what I think about the full-body suits worn by the stage-win hostesses and the polka-dotted umbrella skirt/jacket combo donned by the KOM ladies.

My opinion? Oh, the shame! The stage win outfits look like SCUBA gear meets Buzz Lightyear. It’s awful, but the real tragedy of the awards presentation is absolutely the KOM hostess attire. Frankly, if I had been hired and then told I would be presenting in this outfit for three straight weeks, I’d ask my agent to get me out of the contract. Vain? Maybe. Necessary usage of survival skills? Most definitely. I’m not exclaiming that the V Australia get-ups we wore at the Amgen Tour of California in May were anything to write home about (come to think of it … I did email my sister back in Georgia to joke with her about how I would be wearing a nametag that said, “sally” all week), but at least I didn’t feel like a character out of Tim Burton’s most recent version of Alice in Wonderland.

The Tour of California has come and gone and I’ve made my peace with being sprayed head to toe with champagne by Dave Zabriskie and the entire Garmin squad, but still, cycling fans continue to ask questions about what it’s like to be a “podium girl” at the North American tours. These are my FAQ’s.

Q: Are the guys sweaty and smelly on stage? A: I get this question mostly from women and it amuses me to think what must be running through their minds as they watch podium presentations. Most of the time the guys are completely clean when they get onto the stage. They don’t smell bad. Honestly, as I’ve experienced from being in a relationship with one of these athletes — they rarely have body odor after a long, hard ride. I guess they sweat so much and flush so many fluids that they rarely have toxin build-up. That’s my theory, anyway. And as soon as the winners cross the finish line, they are directed by a race official to head to the “green room” or “athlete tent” to freshen up. They are assisted by a soigneur from their team and then basically sponge bathed right there in the tent behind the stage. I recently learned, while at dinner with Tyler Farrar and discussing his podium experiences, that it is an honor to be the soigneur chosen to attend the winners at the podium — they are responsible for getting the riders where they need to go, cleaned up, redressed, etc. So that little white tent to the side of the podium — it’s an express pro cyclist washroom. And yes, I have accidentally been caught in that room as athletes are changing. They must be used to all the nudity. I’m not.

Q: Who chooses what you wear on stage? And why are you dressed like flight attendants at the Amgen Tour of California?

A: This year, the awards podium was sponsored by V Australia, Richard Branson’s newest international airline. For better or worse, Ashley (my fellow podium hostess) and I were outfitted in attire that the airline’s actual flight attendants wear while on duty. Right down to a starchy white button-up blouse and alias nametag for “Sally.” Honestly, we weren’t happy about this at first, but after hearing all week how classy we looked compared to hostesses of years past, we accepted our conservative fate and worked with it the best we could. On this note, don’t hate on the women at the Tour de France based on what they’re wearing. It’s all up to the sponsors!

Q: How did you get this job? A: Ah, the age-old question! After being chosen from a nationwide casting call, I began working with Medalist Sports in 2005 with Tour of Georgia and have been invited back to work for many races since then. This return invite process happens with races in Europe as well. Hostesses who execute their jobs in a professional and elegant manner tend to develop relationships with the hiring companies and may return to different races sometimes a half a dozen times or more. For instance, Martijn Maaskant’s girlfriend, Lien, works as a podium hostess for several races in Belgium. She’s adorable, articulate and knowledgeable, so she is booked straight through the spring classics! Additionally, many of you may have noticed American girl, Laura Antione, has returned to work as a podium hostess for the best young rider presentations at le Tour.

Q: What are you saying to the riders on stage? A: Fans and media alike so often greet us after a podium presentation and ask us “what were you saying to ‘that guy’ on stage this afternoon?” or they exclaim, “looks like you guys have a lot to talk about!” What we’re mostly doing is giving clear, simple directions to these guys all the way through their appearance on the podium. They’re worn out and can’t think straight, much less walk straight. So here’s how it usually goes, for instance, “Hi Roger. Congrats. Can you please step to the front and center for me? Thank you.” and, “You will now receive a gift. Please pose for a photo.” and “Great, thank you. We are going to kiss you on the cheek now for a photo.”

Since I have done this for so long, several of the guys who frequent the podium, such as Mark Cavendish, will say, “Hey Jen, good to see you” and give me the traditional European kisses as soon as I lead them to the stage. Another guy who likes to horse around is Dave Zabriskie. As often as I direct him on the podium, I continually have to plead with him to follow my direction. He isn’t trying to be a jerk … he’s just a goofball and I think he likes to make my job extra difficult just because he and Steven are teammates. On that note, sometimes if it looks like I’m saying a little more to the guys who are up there often, we probably are just having a little conversational banter.

Q: What do you do during the day when you’re not on stage?

A: We usually drive to the city where the stage begins and mingle with the crowd and riders. Then we make our way to the finish city and might stop for a bite along the way. When we get to the finish, we have more preparation — usually a little more make-up for the afternoon podium presentation. Then it’s more mingling with the crowd, hopefully grabbing another bite to eat in the hospitality tent and then on our way to learn who is presenting which award during ceremonies. We don’t just walk on stage and kiss riders. We are in a tent for an hour before the race finishes introducing ourselves to people such as sponsors, state officials and volunteers with whom we will be on stage. Then our coordinator comes over and says at lightening speed, “OK, today we’re going Amgen Leader’s jersey, then one-two-three, not three-two-one like yesterday. Then the mayor is speaking and we want you on stage for that. But then come off before jersey presentations. Jen, you have flowers on your side for all jerseys except Rabobank best young rider. The sponsor will have that winner’s flowers today. But you will need to carry the surfboard the winner on the day is receiving. And probably a trophy. And maybe a check. A big check. Yes, I believe there is a big check today. OK, you girls got it? I’m sure you do. Thanks. Go ahead and get on stage.” And that’s that. We do our best and hope it looks great.

It isn’t rocket science, but it’s all part of the program. The entire awards production, start to finish, requires a lot of man power, and in the end it’s up to two hostesses to make sure everything on-stage goes as it was planned off-stage. The winners deserve their moment in the limelight and we’re happy to help put on the show.

Well, for this month, I’m leaving the kisses and frills up to the ladies in France. Just south, here in Girona, the sun is out and it’s time for a ride. You guessed it — Steven has been training for the Brixia Tour in Italy, but today he has a rest day, which means he can casually ride by my side as I fight my way up a few hills. I like to joke my way through the pain. During our last ride, I did an immaculate imitation of Mark Cavendish sprinting to a win at the Tour. I’ve been working to get back in shape after spending almost two months stateside with Steven and my family.

Wiebes swept to the opening stage in the newly-launched Tour de France Femmes in Paris as she swept past Marianne Vos in the sprint to assume the early lead in the general classification. So whose baby was Wiebes holding after winning on the Champs-Elysees?
