The race takes place from July 26 to August 3, featuring nine days of racing. The event reaches new heights with a 1,165km route that spans four regions and features a total elevation gain of 17,240 metres with major climbs over the Col de Madeleine, Col de Joux Plane, and a mountaintop finale at Châtel.

Vollering fell less than four kilometers from the finish line in Angers in a crash that involved several riders. Examinations carried out by the team doctor revealed that she had suffered multiple contusions but she did not go to hospital “given the non-urgent nature of her condition,” FDJ-Suez said.
