Tour de France stage 11 sets off from Clermont-Ferrand to Moulins, France on July 12. The cyclists will embark on a 179.8-kilometer, or 111.72-mile, flat route through the beautiful French hillside. 

As it turns out, perhaps the rest day on July 10 was exactly what these cyclists needed to get fired up for what is to come. On the Stage 10, the teams showed us that not even the blistering heat can hold them back from putting up their best fight. 

Krists Neilands showed incredible stamina throughout the whole stage 10. He held a strong solo lead but could not keep up with Ben O’Connors attack to the front. 

In a final three fight for the finish, Pello Bilbao finished first, followed by Georg Zimmerman and O’Connor in third with just seconds between them. 

Jonas Vingegaard, defending Tour de France champion, will wear the yellow jersey for the fifth consecutive stage coming into stage 11. Tadej Pogačar is in second and Jai Hindley is in third for the general classification rankings. 

Here is what you need to know ahead of stage 11 of the Tour de France

Tour de France Stage 11 Route

Stage 11 includes three category 4 climbs with a sprint halfway through. There are opportunities for both climbers and sprinters to surge ahead of the pack. 

Côte de Chaptuzat-Haut is the first climb of the stage appearing at 31.8 kilometers (19.76 miles). 

There is a chance to sprint 70.5km (43.8 miles) into the route, between Côte du Murcerol and Côte de la Croix Blanche. 

It’s a relatively straightforward route for stage 11 and could favor sprinters.

Jasper Phillipsen has claimed the green jersey as his own ever since stage 3 of the Tour de France.
