New route modification - stage start at 13:45
11:28
As weather conditions have deteriorated further compared with yesterday’s forecast, the race organisers have decided to make additional changes to the route for stage 7, in consultation with the Alpes-Maritimes prefecture, the UCI race jury, and representatives of the teams and of the riders.
To avoid the sections made dangerous by rain in the first part of the route, riders will be transferred in their team buses to a new start location on the Louis Nucéra bridge, at Le Broc. After a 2.5 kilometre transfer, the official start will be given at kilometre 73 of the original route. The finish line remains in Isola-Village, at the end of a route now reduced to 47 kilometres.
