Zaczynamy Wielką Pętlę! O godzinie 16:00 rampę startową opuści pierwszy kolarz i rozpoczną się trzy tygodnie pięknych emocji. Zmagania otwiera jazda indywidualna na czas o długości 13200 metrów prowadzona ulicami stolicy Danii – Kopenhagi.
Szczęśliwcem, który to otworzy tegoroczne Tour de France jest Jérémy Lecroq z B&B Hotels – KTM. To on jako pierwszy zaprezentuje się publiczności punktualnie o 16:00, jako ostatni rampę startową opuści z kolei o 18:55 Marc Soler z UAE Team Emirates. To oznacza, że niedługo po 19 poznamy pierwszego lidera tegorocznej Wielkiej Pętli.
Praktycznie wszyscy faworyci, tak czasówki jak i klasyfikacji generalnej, wyruszą na trasę w pierwszej części stawki. Jest to związane z tym, że później może zepsuć się pogoda i dyrektorzy sportowi chcą uniknąć ewentualnych strat na tym podłożu. Tym samym około 17:30 może się okazać, że będziemy już tylko czekali na dokończenie rywalizacji, a komentatorzy będą analizowali straty między faworytami zamiast opisywać bieżące wydarzenia.
W stawce mamy 4 Polaków. O 16:25 wystartuje Maciej Bodnar (TotalEnergies), drugi z naszych ruszy o 17:49 Rafał Majka (UAE Team Emirates), o 18:40 swój pojedynek z czasem rozpocznie Łukasz Owsian (Team Arkéa Samsic), a o 18:47 rampę startową opuści Kamil Gradek (Bahrain – Victorious).
