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.

- He actually took a pay cut when transferred to Visma; he was the star at Jayco for years, he moved because a different team structure could improve his chances and they both got the benefits of the transaction. Money would have been more important if he was a rising talent, not an established one on his way out.mhfrvz11-01-2026

- Maybe Simon's close bond with his brother made his position untenable, for instance if Visma were planning an unwelcome surprise for UAE.Hills3310-01-2026
- You forgot the tax angle which says quite a lot about people who are already well set up. And he’s got rid of the money hasn’t he, or rather invested it long-term for his family, people who like money spend differently.Mistermaumau10-01-2026

Front24210-01-2026 - Knowing even less about Jonas than they do about Tadej, journalists seem determined to emphasise the differences between them. They all pepper their articles about Jonas with the words family, quiet and candid. Then they have to make Tadej sound the opposite. If Tadej started a family they would be confused.Hills3310-01-2026
