Tour de France: follow the 12th stage between Briançon and Alpe d’Huez

Welcome to the live of this 12th stage of the Tour de France 2022. On this national holiday, the profile of this stage is probably the most beautiful of this edition, and also the toughest. These 165.1 km between Briançon and L’Alpe D’Huez (13.8 km at 8.1%) will be legendary to complete this crossing of the Alps. Before this firework of emotions in the famous bends of the last ascent of the day, the peloton will have swallowed two passes outside the category, the Galibier (23 km at 5.1%), perhaps the least formidable difficulty of the day, then the Col de la Croix-de-fer (29 km at 5.2%), which comes after a long descent allowing the peloton to breathe a little.
