1935 Tour Quick Facts:

4,338 km raced at an average speed of 30.650 km/hr.

93 starters aligned national teams (40 riders), as individuels who could join the national teams in the case of abandonments (23 riders), and as fully independent touristes-routiers (30 riders).

Romain Maes surprised all by taking the lead in the first stage (which was a very difficult, challenging stage) and holding it to the end.

Favorite Antonin Magne abandoned after being hit by a car. Francisco Cepeda became the Tour's first racing fatality.

Aluminum rims are allowed for the first time, although riders had disguised their use for years.

Time bonuses: 90 and 45 seconds for the first and second-place riders if the stage ended in a sprint.

In the case of a solo break, the winner's gap is the bonus, up to 2 minutes. This same bonus applied to the rated mountain tops.
