The Tour de France 2023 will hold its Grand Départ in the Basque Country, with a first stage in Bilbao on 1st July, and will finish in Paris on 23rd July, on completion of a 3,404-km route that will tackle the difficult slopes of the country’s five mountain ranges. The battle for the Yellow Jersey will witness a decisive and emotional episode on the Puy de Dôme, where a stage finish will be held 35 years after the victory of Denmark’s Johnny Weltz. The return to this legendary climb will be accompanied by the rise in importance of sites that will mark the Tours of the future, such as the Grand Colombier or the Col de la Loze. The sole time-trial on the Tour de France in 2023 will take place over 22 kilometres between Passy and the Combloux ski resort in Haute-Savoie. The sprinters will also have the opportunity to express themselves on finishes in Bordeaux, Limoges, Moulins, before the grand finale on the Champs-Elysées.

00:00 Today Pogacar, congratulations, sweet, sweet revenge for you.
00:07 I would not say revenge, but it is sweet to win today and to take some time back.
00:14 I feel a little bit relieved and I feel much better now.
00:20 Honestly, were you a little bit worried after losing close to a minute yesterday on Jonas?
00:25 Yeah, who wouldn't be? The display Jonas showed yesterday was incredible.
00:31 I was thinking when they start pulling on Tourmalet, if it's going to happen like yesterday,
00:39 then we can pack our bags and go home.
00:41 Luckily, I had good legs today and could follow on Tourmalet quite comfortably.
00:49 When I felt it was the right moment, I attacked and it was a big relief.
00:57 It's not your first stage victory, but it's always nice to win a stage on the Tour de France.
01:03 Yeah, it's a ten-stage victory. I'm coming for you, Marc.
01:08 No, I'm joking.
01:10 Who knows?
01:12 The gap is now a lot smaller. It's around 30 seconds on Jonas.
01:18 You're optimistic, I suppose.
01:21 Yeah, I would say now it's almost perfect, the gap.
01:27 It's going to be a big, big battle until the last stage, I think.
01:33 I think I know the answer, but who would you dedicate your victory to today?
01:38 I would, of course, Urska.
01:43 Because yesterday she was already at home, not racing.
01:49 She gave me all the power today, and that one's for her.
01:55 Thank you very much.
