Crosswinds In Brittany, A Serious Threat

Crosswinds Can Turn The Tour de France On Its Head At Any Moment, In Brittany The Threat Is Real

The Tour de France can be ripped apart at any moment by cross-winds. Gregor Brown travels to Brittany, where windy racing is expected this year.

We saw it happen in the 2020 edition in stage 7 to Lavaur, first Bora and then Ineos dropped the hammer on the unexpected including Richie Porte and Tadej Pogacar. And the year before in Albi, when Wout Van Aert eventually won the stage.
