US Edition2025 Tour de France final stage to feature Montmartre climb from Paris Olympic road race
- The 2025 Tour de France will feature its 21st and final stage passing through Montmartre in Paris before finishing with an eight-lap sprint on the Champs-Elysees on July 27.
- Organizers included Montmartre following its popularity during the 2024 Olympic road race, which attracted around 500,000 spectators despite posing logistical challenges due to the peloton's larger size.
- The final stage traditionally serves as a parade with the yellow jersey usually decided the day before, but the Montmartre climb introduces a new element that complicates the route and security measures.
- Olympic champion Remco Evenepoel expressed opposition, saying, "Leave the stage as it is, don't make it more complicated," citing rider fatigue after 20 stages and added stress.
- The route change celebrates the 50th anniversary of the Champs-Elysees finish and may affect sprinters’ strategies while reflecting cycling’s increased popularity after the Olympic Games.
