Weather at the finish city of Bergerac at 2:05 PM, local time: 34C (94F), fair, with the wind from the east-northeast at 11 km/hr (7 mph). The temperature is forecast to climb to 36C (97F) at 3:00 PM. No rain is forecast.
Rated ascents:
- Km 102.6: Côte de Domme, 3.7 km @ 3.3%. Cat. 4
- Km 140.4: Côte du Buisson-de-Cadouin, 2.2 km @ 5.3%. Cat. 4
The stage: Tour boss Christian Prudhomme writes: A change of scenery doesn’t always result in a change of scenario. This run into the department of Dordogne, which includes a passing nod to the Lascaux caves and a trip to Sarlat, won’t radically change the amount of vertical gain, which will only total 1,150m. The sprinters vanquished in Bordeaux the day before should get a chance for revenge, while the contenders for the green jersey will once again have two good reasons to be on their toes during the stage.
