Tour de France general director Christian Prudhomme has responded to the rumours that have recently surged regarding the 2024 Tour de France, with indications to it's start and finale of the race.
This comes after the rumours that the edition could have it's finale away from Paris, but instead in Nice so as to avoid the clash between the Olympic Games and the Tour de France in Paris. “As of today, we haven’t decided anything yet, Placing the Tour de France and the Olympic Games side by side is a possibility, but we still have to work on it. In any case, nothing is certain yet," he told AFP.
The work is still being done in the background and announcements are expected in the coming months. The 2023 Tour de France will start in Bilbao, and the 2024 race is being heavily hinted to be hosted by the city of Florence in Italy.
This year the Grand Depart will take place in Copenhagen, with three stages in Danish territory to be followed by a hard race that's set to be decided in it's summit finishes. The race will also host two stages in Switzerland with finales in Lausanne and Châtel.

- Your not looking back far then, the US won one last year and Belgium the year before, they being more likely to repeat than the US. Besides with only 3 per year and Slovenia/Denmark already named that only leaves one country per year so yes obviously that means every year about 200 can’t hope for a GT ;-) On the other hand, it is rare to see so many different countries/ riders winning Giro or TdF over a long period as was the case before the SloDen rivalry heated upMistermaumau26-11-2024

- C’mon, give the guy a break, after all that he only lost to an alien by a few minutes over 80 hours and easily beat everyone else. Without the alien’s improvement over last year he’d probably have even won it. Nobody last year expected alien to still make such a big jump.Mistermaumau26-11-2024
- I understand. But once you join the TdF peloton you don't get to use excuses from before the race. Now if he had crashed in the race that's another story.Sweep26-11-2024

- They are riding the same roads in the same weather as they have for the 100 years. The only things that have changed are the speeds and the tactics. Neither of which are decided by the UCI. All you have to do is listen to the DS of every team in every race telling every rider to move up and ride faster.Sweep26-11-2024
- If you crash then you say you've recovered then you decide to ride then you say you can win and then you lose. Well, Jonas you can't say "But I crashed".Sweep26-11-2024
- He will be back strong in '25 barring another crazy crash.awp26-11-2024
- Chad Gerlach, the homeless heroin addict? Or a different Chad Gerlach? Good luck with your own demons, Sweep.
