The 2024 Tour de France promises to be a unique edition, kicking off with its Grand Depart in Florence and Emilia-Romagna just across the Italian border. Breaking from tradition, the race will conclude in Nice rather than Paris for the grand finale. Scheduled from June 29th to July 21st, let's preview the upcoming stage.
Stage 6 of the Tour should be a calm day on the bike, with only 163 kilometers to race, mostly completely flat with a finale into Dijon. A small fourth category ascent early in the day, but after that it is just an old-school Tour day where there is nothing to keep an eye on besides the final sprint.
This will be an urban sprint, but not a technical one. The peloton will arrive in the city very fresh after a short and easy day on the bike, which will mean speeds will be very high. There isn't any meaningful features except for a big roundabout that comes with 700 meters to go. A race to this point, and then finally the sprint only seconds after.
