Stage 6 Preview
Greg Van Avermaet powered through the Tour’s first mountain stage to take both stage 5 and the yellow jersey for the first time in his career on Wednesday.
Stage 6 is an undulating stage that should provide ample opportunity for a breakaway to escape.
The finish is expected to be around 11:20 a.m. EST, meaning you can tune in at about 11:00 a.m. to see the sprinters’ teams organize for the final sprint in Montauban.
