The top of Mûr-de-Bretagne will be on everyone’s lips
With an arrival at the top of Mûr-de-Bretagne (2 km at 6.9 %), the runners will have to keep it under the pedal so as not to arrive in the red. Dreaded by the entire peloton, he promises a good struggle in the last kilometers, especially since the runners will have to cross it twice. After the first to take its marks, the second should force them to draw on their reserves.

The favorites of the 7th stage of the Tour de France
In view of Thursday, with Tadej Pogačar who did not need to force to stay a second from Van der Poel in the classification of the yellow jersey, we can see a victory of the Slovenian. Unless the Dutch man can better understand Mûr-de-Bretagne if no attack is launched. However, the level of fatigue displayed by Dutch does not invite optimism.
Also pay attention to the outsiders, including the two French Romain Grégoire and Kevin Vauquelin. Matteo Jorgenson, Oscar Onley, Jonas Vingegaard and Florian Lipowitz will also have to be monitored in view of their qualities as signs.
