With the 2022 Tour de France close to starting, organizers are deep into making decisions already for the coming seasons and this week there seems to be a substantial amount of information coming out about the 2024 edition, with rumours on a different starting and finishing location.
This was reported by Gazzetta dello Sport, who claim that the finale could avoid the traditional ending in the Champs Élysees in Paris due to it's proximity to the Olympic Games that will be taking place in the same city that year, and instead be heading to Nice which is one of France's most popular cities and already the host of the finale of Paris-Nice every year.
