The riders will very much appreciate the inclusion of this circle, because the normal 180 and the sprint out of it most certainly caused some pain to the legs after 4000km or so.

For the first time in Tour history, the race will go around the Arc du Triomphe, one of the craziest, busiest and most central hubs of the city - certainly the traffic mayhem this causes will be worth it.

They still have 4 laps to play before the intermediate sprint. Peter Sagan has sewn up the green jersey, but there is pride on the line with 46.5km to go.

These 10 laps will go by very fast thanks to the inclusion of the traffic circle, but the high speed will make it harder for breakaways to stick.
