Tour de France Highlights: Season 2016, Episode 21

2016 - 21: Stage Nineteen

Gary Imlach and Chris Boardman present highlights of stage 19. The first of the two short, draining final mountain stages, both 146km long, that will decide who wins, and who loses, this year's Tour de France. Part one of the Alpine diptych comprises 27.8 km of climbing on gruelling categorised climbs before the peloton even reaches the foot of the final uphill finish of the Tour - 9.8 km up to Saint-Gervais Mont Blanc on a road with a maximum gradient of 12.9 per cent on the lower slopes. Commentary by Ned Boulting and David Millar with Daniel Friebe reporting from the roadside.
