The Tour de France will go ahead tentatively after a turbulent couple of years. The event went ahead during the pandemic however many restrictions remained in place for the safety of athletes and organisers.
The 2022 Tour de France is modelled from the 2021 plan which had to be moved to Brittany, this is of course due to the pandemic. This year will be the first time since 2017 that 4 countries have featured on the route with Belgium, Switzerland and Denmark included with the event ending as usual in France.
