Tour de France 2020 Another high end, but this time in a third-rate port
TAfter the second and last day of rest, the Tour de France tackles stage 16 today. Many returns with a route of 164 kilometers between La Tour du Pin and Villard de Lans. Perhaps a somewhat decaffeinated mountain, since in these approaches to the Alps many of the classical names are absent this time, but remember that the races are made tough by the cyclists themselves.
The squad faces a day with one port of first, two of second, one of third and one of fourth. It’s -Quotes from Virieu, 2.3 km at 6.8% – it is the first one you will find, at kilometer 12. Then, almost halfway through the stage, the Col de Door (2, 7.4 km at 6.8%) and in 94, the Cote de Revel (6 km at 8%).
After the descent and some non-scoring slopes and false plains, the first-class port arrives: Saint Nizier de Moucherotte, 11.5 to 6.5%. Finally, the Cote 2.000 de Villard de Lans, ahe end of a third climb: 2.2 km. 6.5%. A terrain more conducive to fighting by stage than by the general one, although if someone wants to attack the leaders, at some point they will have to fight.
Primoz arrives at the stage as leader Roglic (Jumbo Visma), followed by Tadej Pogacar (UAE Emirates) at 40 seconds and Rigoberto Urn (EF1) at 1:34. The first Spanish is Mikel Landa (Bahrain McLaren), at 2:16, followed by Enric But (Movistar), in the eighth, at 3:15.
The squad will leave Le Tour de Pin at 13:05, Spanish peninsular time, and is scheduled to arrival a Villar de Lans -of great memory for Spanish cycling since Perico Delgado won two stages there- between 17:23 and 17:52, according to the average speed of the platoon.
