1936 Tour Quick Facts:

4,438 km raced at an average speed of 31.045 km/hr.

90 starters, 60 of whom are on national teams and 30 are touristes-routiers (independent riders).

For complex political reasons, Italy did not send a team and a team of "Italians of France" was not allowed to start.

Tour father Henri Desgrange was too ill to direct the Tour and after the second stage, handed management of the Tour to Jacques Goddet.

Belgian Sylvère Maes rode a masterful 16th stage while Antonin Magne cracked. The French team was unable to find the team unity needed to challenge the Belgians.

Vervaecke was penalized 10 minutes in the 16th stage for using a bike with gears and another 1-minute penalty for getting an illegal feed from his wife.

Magne got an illegal feed from Victor Fontan in the same stage and was penalized 5 minutes, the net effect was to move Magne to second place.

Time bonuses: 90 seconds and 45 seconds respectively for stage win and second place in case of a sprint. In case of a solo victory, the bonus is the time gap, up to 2 minutes. The same bonus applied to the the first rider to the top of rated mountains.
