Preview stage 8. From the 20th to the 27th of August takes place the Tour de l'Avenir. More commonly known as the under-23 Tour de France, the race will see 9 stages throughout France where the best U23 riders of all specialties will come together to reveal many of the stars of the future.

The final day of racing finally will take place from Termignon to Ste-Foy-Tarentaise. Whoever wins the overall classification must be a tremendously talented stage-racer as the final day is not one bit easier than the previous ones. The riders tackle the Col de l'Iseran early in the day which summits at over 2700 meters in altitude, a 12.9 kilometer climb at 7.3% - if you ignore the already climbing approach to it. After a very long descent the riders tackle two smaller climbs, the final of which however hard enough to still make differences, the summit finish has 4.8 kilometers at 8.4%.

Stage 8: Termignon - Ste-Foy-Tarentaise, 100.3 kilometers
