Corsican win this race

It's time to get pedalling. The Tour de France, the world's most famous bike race, is starting today. Beginning in Florence, Italy, the 2024 Tour will cover a total distance of 3497.3 kilometres. This year's course will be a little different from the other races in the Tour's history. The final finish line has always been in Paris; however, because the French capital will be busy getting ready for this year's Olympic Games, the race will end in Nice on France's Mediterranean coast.
