Stage seven will see the peloton ride high into the toughest climbs of the Vosges. In what may be considered the queen stage, the field will go up none other than the Petit Ballon, the Col du Platzerwasel and the Grand Ballon before the finale in Le Markstein. It will be a day with several opportunities to attack, and the differences are expected to be big.
