Eurosport with Velo Club
The Eurosport commentator is Karsten Migels, whose book "Zum Teufel mit der Flamme Rouge" is available from Delius Klasing Verlag. In the first week of the race, the team will have the ex-professionals Robert Bengsch and Bernhard Eisel as experts. The 17-time Tour participant Jens Voigt will once again take a seat on the support bike during this time and provide Eurosport viewers with insights from the peloton. From the second week onwards, Voigt will replace Robert Bengsch in the commentary. Birgit Hasselbusch is responsible for the information away from the racing action and provides the audience with interesting facts about the country and its people.
Eurosport also offers a very special treat for cycling fans: the Velo Club, which already existed last year. In a half-hour analysis show, presenter David Marcour welcomes guests such as Jan Ullrich or Tony Martin live in the studio and discusses the stages of the Tour de France with them in detail.
