COMMENTARY FROM MARION ROUSSE

Four loops featuring four ascents of the Col d’Èze: this finale will be anything but a leisurely lap of honour. The addition, on the last lap, of a detour via the Chemin du Vinaigrier and the Col des Quatre Chemins – for a total climb of 6km at 7.6% (including more than a kilometre at 12%) – will offer plenty of opportunity to shake up the overall classification if it’s not already set in stone. The suspense would then be guaranteed until the Promenade des Anglais, approached from the opposite direction to the previous stage.
