The route is designed in such a way that time trials and high-altitude mountain stages act as real selection points – precisely where equipment details, pacing strategy and team strength become measurable. Accordingly, the live blog focuses not just on ‘who wins’, but on the ‘why’: which decisions gain seconds, which cost energy, and which set-ups work under Tour conditions.
