Tour de France 2011 - ÉTAPE 14 - Saint-Gaudens Plateau de Beille 168.5 km 01
- 13 years ago
The opinion of Jean-François Pescheux: Go with the victory?
"This is the last major stage in the Pyrenees. Six challenges to the program: the Col de Portet-d'Aspet, the Col de la Core, Col de Latrape, Col d'Agnes, the Port of Lers and the coming to Plateau de Beille. These are passes that do not have the reputation of the Aubisque and Tourmalet, but the accumulation of difficulties will create a beautiful stage. 168.5 km is short, but from the beginning, there will be attacks! There is no secret, the "big guys" meet on this type of steps. Indeed, all who are taxed at the Plateau de Beille won the Tour that year. "
