Tour de France   klassement

Tadej Pogacar graait 3e ritzege mee in deze Tour, maar 3e eindzege is toch weer stapje verder weg

Tadej Pogacar (UAE) heeft op Peyragudes de armen mogen spreiden, maar zijn gele concurrent Jonas Vingegaard deed desondanks een uitstekende zaak. De Deen eindigde in het wiel van Pogacar en verliest zo dus enkel 4 (bonificatie)seconden. Nog goed nieuws voor Jumbo-Visma: Wout van Aert verzekerde zich in deze etappe van eindwinst voor het groen.

Rit 17 kort samengevat:

• Winnaar van de dag (1): Wout van Aert heeft waar hij voor naar de Tour is gekomen: de groene trui. Opdracht volbracht met nog 4 ritten op de teller. Hij is de opvolger van Tom Boonen, die groen pakte in 2007.
• Winnaar van de dag (2): Jonas Vingegaard kwam vandaag geen moment in de problemen. De Deen is weer een dag dichter bij Tour-winst.
• Winnaar van de dag (3): UAE begon aan de rit met amper vier renners. Allemaal hebben ze het beste van zichzelf gegeven, met Brandon McNulty op kop.
• Verliezers van de dag: De drie klassementsmannen van Ineos kregen vandaag, net als alle anderen, een draai om de oren van Pogacar en Vingegaard: Thomas finishte op meer dan 2 minuten, Yates zakt in het klassement van 6 naar 9 en voor Pidcock zit er geen top 10 meer in.

Van Aert snelt naar groen, Bardet probeert

De tweede van drie Pyreneeënritten was erg kort (130km), maar met vier zware beklimmingen wel krachtig.

Wout van Aert zorgde voor een eerste hoogtepunt voor Jumbo-Visma door in La-Barthe-de-Neste zijn groene trui veilig te stellen. Hij werd tweede in de tussensprint achter Jasper Philipsen en kan in het puntenklassement onmogelijk nog bijgehaald worden.

Romain Bardet, één van de verliezers van gisteren koos vandaag voor de aanval, maar het peloton gaf de Fransman nooit veel voorsprong.

McNulty plaveit de weg, Pogacar maakt het af

Zonder Rafal Majka, die de Tour geblesseerd verliet, was UAE verrassend sterk. Een herboren Mikkel Bjerg zorgde ervoor dat Van Aert moest passen op de voorlaatste klim, waarna Brandon McNulty overnam tot op de top.

Daar probeerde Tadej Pogacar het een eerste keer om Jonas Vingegaard onder druk te zetten voor de afdaling, maar de Deen kleefde aan zijn wiel.

Op de slotklim richting Peyragudes bleven nog drie renners over. McNulty nam de hele klim voor zijn rekening en werd voor zijn berewerk beloond met de Prijs voor de Strijdlust.

En zijn kopman? Die raakte ook op de steilste stukken niet af van Vingegaard, maar won wel zijn derde etappe in de sprint. De Deen zag het graag gebeuren, hij leidt nog altijd met 2'18" met nog één bergrit op het menu.

Fase per fase

Voor Pogacar is het ondertussen al de 9e etappezege in de Tour en dat in zijn 3e deelname. Dat wil zeggen dat de Sloveen bij elke deelname drie ritten wint.

Hoe kunnen ze mekaar toch zo de duivel aandoen?

Ze zijn allemaal tot het uiterste gegaan. wat een etappe alweer..

Ook Gaudu, Vlasov, Meintjes en Quintana zijn binnen op meer dan 3 minuten van winnaar Pogacar. Wat een slagveld!

Thomas verliest meer dan twee minuten

Moegestreden druppelen de geloste klassementsmannen binnen op meer dan 2 minuten. Thomas is 4e op 2'07", Lutsenko 5e op 2'34", Bardet 6e op 2'38".

BEKIJK! Pogacar klopt Vingegaard in beklijvend sprintje op Peyragudes

McNulty is erg knap derde op een halve minuut. De MVP van de rit komt uit de VS.

Pogacar wint!

Het is Pogacar die uiteindelijk de snelste en de sterkste is, goed voor zijn derde ritzege. Vingegaard blijft wel stevig leider in het klassement.

Vingegaard neemt over, Pogacar gaat mee. Wie wint?

Op het steilste stuk gaat de Sloveen weer zitten. Vingegaard zit in pole position.

Pogacar versnelt dan toch, maar Vingegaard kleeft aan het wiel.

Nog 500m: ze gaan sprinten.

Vingegaard heeft zin om te versnellen, maar doet het niet. Het is voorbij voor Pogacar vandaag, zo lijkt het toch.

Pogacar laat Vingegaard nu inschuiven. Krijgen we nog een aanval of baart Peyragudes een muis?

Onder de vod zit Vingegaard nog wat rustig rond te kijken. De Deen heeft alles onder controle.

Brandon McNulty krijgt de Prijs van de Strijdlust vandaag. Dat is dik verdiend!

McNulty gaat nog altijd niet van de kop af. Pogacar wacht nu wel erg lang. Is het van niet beter kunnen bij de Sloveen?

Pogacar heeft geen vertrouwen in een langeafstandsraket.

Tour de France 2023 routes – All the rumours ahead of the official presentation

Information on next year's routes ahead of Thursday's presentation

Tour de France Femmes 2023 route

Tour de france 2023 route.

The routes for the 2023 editions of the Tour de France and Tour de France Femmes will be unveiled in Paris on October 27 in one of the most highly-anticipated non-racing events of the cycling calendar. 

Deputy Editor Patrick Fletcher is in Paris for the presentation and Cyclingnews will have live coverage of the presentation followed by full details of the route, rider reaction and analysis. 

Race organisers ASO do their best to keep a lid on the details until they click play on their carefully constructed video montages in the Palais de Congrès, but reports, leaks, and rumours never fail to circulate ahead of the big reveal. 

Local French newspapers are all scrambling to bring readers details of when the Tour might roll into their corner of the Hexagon, while Thomas Vergouwen at the VeloWire website is, as ever, compiling these reports and combining them with his own sleuthing to produce an overview, at least of the men's route. 

The 110th edition of the men's Tour de France will take place from July 1-23, starting in Bilbao, Spain, and finishing in the French capital Paris. 

The second edition of the modern incarnation of the women's Tour de France – the Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift – will start on July 23 and finish on July 30, with the start and finish locations still unknown. 

Below Cyclingnews looks at all the rumours and potential outlines for both routes.

With less than 24 hours to go the presentation we have updated the information with all the latest information, rumours and leaks. 

What we know about the Tour de France Femmes route

If ASO has a tight lid on the Tour de France route, they have an even tighter one on the Tour de France Femmes route details.

The second edition of the new version of the women's Tour de France will begin on July 23, on the same day as the stage 21 conclusion of the men's race, and the route will finish at an unknown location on July 30.

The women's race is currently scheduled to be held across eight stages again; however, it is not expected to begin on the Champs-Elysées circuits in Paris as it did in 2022.

The return of the women's Tour de France after three decades of absence offered a historical moment in women's cycling, and the two events - the women's opening stage 1 and the men's closing stage 21 – were held on the same day in Paris. Lorena Wiebes (Team DSM) won the circuit race and took the first yellow jersey to kick off the eight-day women's race. Later that evening, Jasper Philipsen (Alpecin-Deceuninck) took the bunch sprint to win stage 21 of the men's event as Jonas Vingegaard (Jumbo-Visma) sealed the overall victory.

It was the perfect hand-over of the yellow jersey from the men's race to the women's race as the peloton, fans, and media departed Paris on stage 2 to follow the women's event across the northeast and into the Vosges mountains for the finale atop La Super Planche des Belles Filles where Annemiek van Vleuten (Movistar) was crowned the overall champion. 

In total, there were nearly 20 million viewers in France across the eight days of racing, with an average per stage of 2.25 million on France 2 and France 3 delivering an audience share of 26.4%, according to official Tour de France Femmes figures. The finale alone was watched by more than 5 million French viewers.

Many of the event's top riders, including Van Vleuten, suggested that the Tour de France Femmes, while only in its second edition, was so successful this year that it perhaps no longer needs to start on the coattails of the men's race. 

The speculation is that the Grand Départ could move away from the hustle and bustle of the Paris circuits – out from under the men's race – and begin in an all-new location in 2023.

• Tour de France Femmes heads to Massif Central in 2023
• Van Vleuten supports possible Tour de France Femmes shift from Paris depart
• Top riders welcome rumoured move away from Paris for the 2023 Tour de France Femmes

Massif Central Grande Depart?

Speculation in La Montagne places the Grand Départ of the Tour de France Femmes in the Massif Central on July 23. Specifically, the race looks likely to begin in Clermont-Ferrand, the capital of the Auvergne region.

It was reported that Tour de France Femmes director Marion Rousse visited the Auvergne region to consider Clermont-Ferrand as the starting point for next year's event, along with its potential to host multiple stages.

The area is set to host multiple stages of the men's event, too, with Clermont-Ferrand Mayor Olivier Bianchi saying that gender equality was an important factor in its bid to host the opening stage of the women's race.

Although the type of race has not been revealed, top riders such as Cecilie Uttrup Ludwig (FDJ-Suez-Futuroscope) say that the possible move away from a Paris opener could allow the race to expand into new terrain and possibly bring in a time trial. This discipline was sorely missed in this year's race event.

Beginning in the Massif Central could also mean that the event could see more decisive stages in the first few days of racing, with speculation that the women's race, like the men's, could visit Puy de Dôme.

Where to next?

While many had hoped for the event to visit the iconic Tour de France mountains of the Alps and Pyrénées this year, there were obvious challenges and limitations to how much of the countryside the Tour de France Femmes could traverse in just eight days.

Unless ASO is secretly planning to expand the number of days for the 2023 Tour de France Femmes, the peloton will need to complete eight days of racing inside a reasonably sized area of France. It cannot feasibly visit all of the areas the men's race visits, but moving away from Paris could mean the race will see new places next year.

A starting point in the Massif Central means the race could venture east to the Alps, where the race could hit iconic ascents such as L'Alpe d'Huez or south to the Pyrénées for mountain passes such as the Col du Tourmalet. 

Journalist for RTL France , Nicolas Georgereau, indicated via his social media channels that the Tour de France Femmes could start in Clermont-Ferrand with the final stage in Pau at the foot of the Pyrenees. 

In between, he suggested that the race could venture south through Blagnac, Albi, and Lannemezan with a mountaintop finish at the Col du Tourmalet.

We will find out the full details on Thursday.

What we know about the men's Tour de France route

As it stands, we only have official details on two-and-a-half of the 21 stages of the men's Tour de France. The other stages have still to be confirmed.

The Grand Départ has been awarded to the Basque Country in Spain, and the opening two stages have already been unveiled, along with the start location of stage 3, which will see the Tour cross into France to an as-yet-unknown finishing location. 

The 2023 Tour de France begins in Bilbao on July 1, with a 185km route that heads out to the hilly coastline of the Bay of Biscay before returning to Bilbao for a late, steep climb of the Pike Bidea and the finish in the city centre. Stage 2 features more punchy terrain on a 210km route from Vitoria-Gasteiz to Donostia San Sebastián, with the Jaizkibel climb – well known from the Donostia San Sebastián Klasikoa – close to the finish.

Stage 3 will start in Amorebieta-Etxano and track 80km along the Basque Country coastline before reaching the French border. And that's where the official details come to an end.

• 2023 Tour de France to start in the Basque Country
• 2023 Tour de France set to return to Puy de Dome mountain finish
• Tour de France director Prudhomme suggests Puy de Dôme could return to route

What could follow when in France?

Newspapers and specialist websites on either side of the border have reported with confidence that stage 3 will finish in Bayonne, the small city near Biarritz as the Tour heads to France.  

Bayonne is around 30km up the coast from the Spanish border, and the stage would almost certainly culminate in a sprint finish, possibly along the banks of the Adour river.

The Tour de France then looks set for an early foray into the Pyrenees. 

Most of the media reporting around these stages comes from the well-regarded Sud Ouest regional newspaper, which suggests stage 4 will make its way into the Pyrenees from Dax to finish in Laruns. There is no shortage of major mountains in the vicinity of the finish town, so there should be a late climb and descent to the line, with Primož Roglič and Tadej Pogačar both winning there in recent years. 

Sud Ouest speculates that stage 5 will see an uphill finish at Cauterets after a start from the Tour's most-visited city of Pau. Cauterets is only a category-3 drag but was preceded by the Col d'Aspin and Col du Tourmalet when it was last used in 2015. Again, it remains to be seen how hard this stage ends up being. 

Clues to stage 6 are scarcer still. Sud Ouest mentions the possibility of a time trial, with the latest reports suggesting the return of a team time trial around Tarbes. That would be a change in strategy for ASO but could happen and spark an early battle for every second between Jumbo-Visma, UAE Team Emirates and Ineos Grenadiers.  

Stage 7 should take the race north, starting in Mont-de-Marsan – the adopted hometown of 1973 Tour winner Luis Ocaña – and finishing in Bordeaux. It's a major city but hasn't hosted a Tour stage finish since Mark Cavendish won in 2010. There could be another big city finish - and potential bunch sprint - the next day, with France Bleu reporting that stage 8 will head to Limoges, possibly from Libourne. 

Stage 9, as is customary, will be the final stage of the opening week ahead of the first rest day, and it's set to be a hotly-anticipated affair. 

Rumours of a return to the Puy de Dome have been circulating for a while, and this looks to be the day, according to La Montagne . The climb up the dormant volcano hasn't been used since 1988 but has a storied history, including the Poulidor-Anquetil duel in 1964 and the time a spectator punched Eddy Merckx in 1975.

Stage winners include Fausto Coppi, Federico Bahamontes, Luis Ocaña, Lucien Van Impe, and Joop Zoetemelk. Although not overly long, the main 5.8-kilometre ascent of the climb, which spirals around the central cone of the volcano, is unremittingly steep and spectacular, with gradients averaging around 12%. 

The first rest day will come on July 10, with La Montagne's report indicating this will be in the city of Clermont-Ferrand. This lies in the Auvergne region just outside the chain of old volcanos in that corner of the Massif Central, so the second week could open with more medium mountains.

La Montagne is still the local newspaper here and reports a finish in Issoire to the south of Clermont-Ferrand on stage 10, which would be a flat finish but likely preceded by hilly terrain. Stage 11 is then said to loop back to start in Clermont-Ferrand before finishing in Moulins. This would take the race north out of the Massif Central and would likely be a flatter affair, especially towards the finish. 

Into the Alps in week 2

The second half of the 2023 Tour de France is where things become far less clear even close to the official presentation. There is still considerable uncertainty, though a visit to the Jura, the Alps and the Savoie area near Italy and Switzerland is, of course, guaranteed.

Le Progrès has reported that stage 13 - on Bastille Day - will be in the Jura, from Châtillon-sur-Chalaron to the Grand Colombier, which featured as a stage finish in 2020.

The Dauphiné Libéré , the newspaper which covers the Alps, it claims to know of stage finishes in Morzine and Saint-Gervais during the race’s time in the mountain range. Morzine is a ski resort that has hosted multiple Tour visits, with stage finishes usually coming after the hors-catégorie climb and hair-raising descent of the Col de Joux Plane.

Velowire put the Morzine stage towards the end of the second week and flags the possibility of only individual time trial in the Sallanches area after the second rest day on Monday July 17. The Dauphiné also suggests a mountain stage from Les Gets to Saint-Gervais, in the shadow of Mont Blanc, where Romain Bardet won in 2016.

The stage is expected to start in Passy on the north side of the Arve valley and then climb the Côte de Domancy and finish in the village of Combloux on the southside. 

The Côte de Domancy has been named the Montée Bernard Hinault after the French rider attacked alone to set up his historic victory at the 1980 World Championships in Sallanches.  It is only three kilometres long but has an average gradient of 8.5% and a section at 16%.

The day after is perhaps the Queen stage of the 2023 Tour de France and climbs the Col de la Loze bike path to 2,304 metres before a descent and the finish on the ramp of the Courchevel altiport. Primož Roglič distanced  Tadej Pogačar  on the steep newly-surfaced climb in 2020, with Miguel Angel Lopez winning the stage.

On leaving the Alps. the Tour route is expected to head north to the Jura and the Vosges via Bourg-en-Bresse and Poligny. 

The Vosges has been favoured in recent years, with extensive visits to La Planche des Belles Filles, but the major rumour for 2023 revolves around the Grand Ballon, last used in 2019 but never as a summit finish. 

France Bleu notes that local officials are planning to build a 5km path from Geishouse up the Col du Haag, which is said would be a 13km climb with nearly a vertical kilometre, thus making it the only hors-catégorie climb in the Vosges mountains.

This stage could be on the final Saturday. If that indeed proves to the case, then there would be on final time trial before the finish in Paris. This would be a Tour light on time trialling kilometres in comparison to the Giro, which has 70km against the watch spread across three stages.

The Tour de France peloton will likely transfer to Paris on Sunday morning. The final parade stage is set to start inside the national velodrome of Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines, which will host the track racing at the 2024 Paris Olympics. 

The final winner of the stage will again be crowned on the Champs-Elysées after the sprinters fight for one last victory at sunset on Sunday.

📸 Na de tranen in Baskenland is er nu voorspoed voor Landa: herstel gaat goed, Tour absoluut niet in gevaar

Het was in het Baskenland niet bepaald de week van Soudal Quick-Step. Nadat eerder al Remco Evenepoel uitviel met een gebroken sleutelbeen en schouderblad , kwamen daags na de inmiddels welbekende horrorcrash ook Mikel Landa en Gil Gelders ten val. Dat meldde de Belgische WorldTour-ploeg op X .

Tijdens de voorlaatste rit vond er op 78 kilometer van de meet wederom een fikse valpartij plaats, met dus andermaal lieden van The Wolfpack als slachtoffers. Volgens de eerste berichten had Landa een nekbrace om en last van de schouder en sleutelbeen. De beelden van de Bask die werd afgevoerd waren hartverscheurend.

Landa met gebroken sleutelbeen én twee gebroken ribben

Iets later kwam de ploeg met een update rondom Landa , die bij nader onderzoek zijn sleutelbeen gebroken bleek te hebben. 'Hij zal nog verder onderzocht worden, om zo het beste pad in het kader van zijn herstelproces uit te kunnen tekenen', werd er vermeld.

Zondag kwam dan weer de bevestiging binnen dat Landa ook nog twee ribben gebroken zou hebben bij de crash. Over de specifieke duur van zijn revalidatietraject is nog altijd weinig bekend.

Gelders stapte weliswaar ook af, maar leek beter weg te komen na zijn valpartij. Op de sociale media-kanalen van Soudal Quick-Step verschenen immers foto's van een glimlachende Gelders, die ook zijn duim opstak.

Landa kan snel weer terug in competitie keren namens Soudal Quick-Step

Een kleine week na de crash in het Baskenland meldt Marca dat het herstel van Landa behoorlijk voorspoedig verloopt. Een operatie aan het sleutelbeen bleef achterwege, uiteindelijk staat een hersteltijd van drie a vier weken te wachten, zo meldt de Spaanse krant. De Ronde van Romandië, die eind deze maand start, komt wellicht nog te vroeg. Tijdens de Dauphiné, die de Bask samen rijdt met zijn kopman Remco Evenepoel, zal Landa zeker weer helemaal fit zijn. De Tour de France komt onder geen beding in gevaar.

Will the Tour de France be won by the last man standing?

With Jonas Vingegaard, Remco Evenepoel and Primož Roglič hitting the deck at Itzulia Basque Country, all three now face battle to get their seasons back on track

Juan Ayuso might have stood atop the podium at Itzulia Basque Country as the overall winner last week, but the biggest winner was possibly not the Spaniard, but his UAE Team Emirates teammate Tadej Pogačar .

The 25-year-old wasn’t present in the north of Spain, and so dodged the misfortune and injuries that befell his rivals for the Tour de France . It’s counterintuitive that avoiding racing makes you more of a favourite, but at Itzulia, Remco Evenepoel (Soudal Quick-Step), Jonas Vingegaard (Visma-Lease a Bike) and Primož Roglič (Bora-Hansgrohe) were all impacted to different extents by the horror crash on stage four .

Evenepoel broke his collarbone and shoulder blade, while Roglič escaped serious injury, just receiving a lot of bruises and road rash, but it was Vingegaard who looked the worst off . The Dane remained motionless on the floor for a significant amount of time; it later transpired that he had broken his collarbone, several ribs, and suffered a collapsed lung. His plans for a defence of his Tour crown remain uncertain as a result.

It takes around six to eight weeks to bounce back from broken ribs and collarbone, but it isn’t so much the time away from racing, as the time away from training which could cause more concerns for three of the favourites for the Tour. In a video message, Evenepoel said his “long term goals”, ie the Tour, would not be impacted, but hard earned training gains could well be lost through the layoff.

Vingegaard was described as getting “a little bit better every day” by Richard Plugge, his team boss, at the weekend, but it will take a couple of weeks for the true extent of his injuries and the impact of them to be realised. 

On Tuesday, Visma-Lease a Bike reported that he had had a successful operation on his collarbone. However: "He will now spend the next few weeks recovering. It is not yet clear how long this will take. He is doing well and expresses his gratitude to everyone for their kind words over the past few days."

Pogačar then, the fourth member of this quad of Tour de France favourites, is the one who moves into the virtual lead, three months out from the race actually taking place. Of course, he has to race the Giro d’Italia in between now and then, in which anything could happen, but if he stays upright, it might be swinging towards the Slovenian. Perhaps, though, this is the year for someone out of the blue to win, the first surprise winner in years. Nothing can be predicted.

Bike racing is often decided as much by fortune as by design. This is nothing new. How often have we been excited about a potential Tour for the ages, only for something to come up? The expectation is often better than the reality. That could well be the case with the 2024 Tour de France, which has been shaped already.

Visma-Lease a Bike, especially, cannot catch a break at the moment. The dominant squad of 2023 lost Wout van Aert to a crash ahead of the Tour of Flanders and Paris-Roubaix, and now have Vingegaard out of action for an unclear amount of time.

Away from the impact on the Tour, the crash was a reminder that something needs to be done to lessen the outcome of these racing incidents. As well as Vingegaard, Evenepoel, and Roglič’s injuries, Jay Vine (UAE Team Emirates) suffered a cervical and two thoracic spine vertebral body fractures, while Steff Cras (TotalEnergies) also came away with a collapsed lung, broken ribs and a two fractured vertebrae. These kinds of injuries should not be normal.

Gino Mäder’s crash and subsequent death last June forced the UCI to create the SafeR project, which looked to study crashes and other parts of races to make them less dangerous. Because, as Vuelta stage winner Nicholas Roche said after the Itzulia crash , “it's not normal that riders should risk their life”.

Crashes are a part of cycling, and crashes mean injuries. However, they shouldn’t be life threatening, or so regular. Riders will not slow down, organisers will not want to be constrained in their route choices, and the money isn’t there to put crash protection on every descent. Action is needed. The lottery cannot go on.

Bravur toont nieuwe collectie horloges, geïnspireerd op de 'gouden dagen' van het wielrennen

De Heritage-collectie is geïnspireerd door de stijl van de iconische teams van Eddy Merckx, Tom Simpson, Bernard Hinault en anderen.

Het luxe Zweedse horlogemerk Bravur heeft onlangs een nieuwe collecties horloges gepresenteerd: de 'Team Heritage'-serie is een collectie geïnspireerd op de stijl van de 'gouden dagen' van het wielrennen, allemaal handgemaakt in Båstad, Zweden.

De Team Heritage-serie combineert strak en modern design met een klassieke toets, met de modellen REN, PEU en MER die elk een iconisch wielerteam uit de jaren 50 tot 80 eren. De modelnamen zijn geïnspireerd op de driekaraktercode die door de UCI aan elk team is toegekend.

Het ontwerp van de PEU draait om het iconische patroon van Peugeot, het gerenommeerde Franse team dat wordt beschouwd als het meest succesvolle in de geschiedenis, met renners zoals Eddy Merckx, Robert Millar, Charly Gaul, Walter Godefroot en Tom Simpson. Met zijn iconische schaakbordpatroon is het team synoniem geworden met de wielergeschiedenis, en het truitje fungeerde als het handelsmerk van het team van 1963 tot 1986.

De REN neemt veel van zijn ontwerp over van het karakteristieke geel, zwart en witte patroon van het Renault-teamtruitje, gedragen door mannen als Bernard Hinault, Laurent Fignon en Greg Lemond. Het team, dat de sport domineerde tussen 1978 en 1983, stond bekend om zijn gedurfde truitjes die gemakkelijk te herkennen waren in het peloton en volledig in lijn waren met de modetrends en ontwerpstijlen van die tijd.

Met zijn uniek gekleurde wijzerplaat, met het kenmerkende paars en geel van het iconische Mercier-truitje, is de MER een opvallende toevoeging aan de serie. Het Franse team, opgericht in 1933, heeft het record van het hoogste aantal deelnames in de geschiedenis van de Tour de France en stond bekend om het hebben van een van de meest populaire renners van die tijd in het team, Raymond Poulidor.

Prijzen voor de 'Team Heritage' serie start bij € 1395, inclusief gratis wereldwijde verzending. Alle horloges zijn te koop via bravurwatches.com
