"Could make a finish for the ages": Your thoughts on Tour de France ditching Paris for Nice finale, the Tour de France is likely to swap out the final stage in Paris for a seaside finale in 2024 because of the Olympic Games being held in the French capital just days later.
But Rendel's got an idea..."I'm sure they do and by God they earn it, but just every now and again it might be nice to have a last day that actually meant something? Two thirds of the Giro last days since 2008 have been individual time trials and produced some amazing finales...imagine Pog, Rog, Bernal, Vingegaard — maybe even Pidcock! — all within two minutes of each other and an out and back 40k TT over the Col de Braus on the final day.
"However I do hope, as you mentioned, that they decide a good full race now rather then a GC procession.":"Very seldom watch the final stage of Tour de France as such an anticlimax. Hopefully Nice will be nice 👍"agreed: "With you on that one. Ok, there's the sprint, but all the divving about and sipping champagne beforehand...it's not sport."
