Woensdag 3 juli 2024: Saint-Jean-de-Maurrienne - Saint-Vulbas (177,4 km)

Who will win stage 5 in te Tour de France 2024 according to the computer? The stage starts in Saint-Jean-de-Maurrienne and finishes after 177.4 kilomters in Saint-Vulbas. Despite being tired after the brutal stage 4, the sprinters will want to show their best in this stage. From Saint-Jean-de-Maurienne, we leave the Alps and cruise peacefully to Saint-Vulbas. Along the way, there are two climbs of 4th category, but they should pose no problem for any sprinter. The last real turn in Saint-Vulbas is over 2 kilometers from the finish, allowing the sprint trains to prepare 'in peace' to launch their leader. The road bends slightly to the right in the final hundred meters, meaning the finish line appears relatively late, making chosing the ideal line crucial. Opportunity number two for the fast men!
