The Tour de Suisse is the last major preparation race for the Tour de France. With, as usual, a mountain course. There are three mountain stages with several climbs and two time trials, accounting for almost 40 individual kilometres. The sprinters come off worst with possibly one chance and the remaining stages offer opportunities to strong breakaways or for the classics riders.
The big crowd puller is undoubtedly Remco Evenepoel. After dropping out of the Giro d'Italia, the World champion returns to the peloton hungry for the overall victory. His main competitors include Juan Ayuso, Jay Vine, Wilco Kelderman, Pello Bilbao, Romain Bardet and Sergio Higuita.

The Fantasy Tour de Suisse starts on Sunday 11 June 2023 at 14:25.
You have a budget of 165 million euro to buy 15 riders for the starting line up and 25 million euro budget to pick 3 substitutes. You can win points for every stage and for the General Classification.
When a rider does not start in a stage, then the first available substitute takes his place. The points of the drop-out will remain in your total points scored, the points of the substitute will only count from start of the next stage. Be aware that a rider, who is not available on the startlist when the game starts, will not be replaced!
When a rider does not start in a stage, the rider with a value closest to that of the rider withdrawn from the race takes his place. An example: You have Wout van Aert in your team with a value of 15,0 million. As substitutes you have Egan Bernal (27,0 million), Caleb Ewan (11,0 million) and Marc Hirschi (10,0 million). In this example, Ewan will take the place of Van Aert because his value is closest to 15,0 million.
When you have two substitutes with the same difference in value, then the rider with the highest value will take his place. If a rider with a value of 10,5 million, in the above example, is not starting in the race, then Ewan will take his place. If there are two riders with the same difference and the same value, the rider on the highest position of the substitute list will enter your team.
The game will cost $10,69/€10/£8,88 per team and will start with a guaranteed amount of $5,360/€5,000/£4,290 in prizes. The first prize will be $1,075/€1,000/£860 (81 GC prizes).
