How can I follow the race?
Those with subscriptions to Eurosport (through Discovery + Sport and Entertainment pass) or GCN + are lucky, both will broadcast every day, as will ITV4 and Welsh terrestrial channel S4C. In Wales, S4C is available on Sky 104, Freeview 4, Virgin TV 166 and Freesat 104, while in England, Scotland and Northern Ireland it can be found on Sky 134, Freesat 120 and Virgin TV 166 and also on iPlayer. Live programs and highlights programs will be shown at different times each day. Alternatively, if you are stuck at work or not subscribing to Eurosport if you have a sports package with like Sky and BT or GCN + – or do not have access to S4C – then you can follow the action as it unfolds, right here with Telegraph Sport. Almost every shift will be blogged live by our team – details will follow – while selected race details and standings will also be published in the main classifications.
Which teams will ride the Tour de France?
As with all WorldTour races, each team from the top level of professional cycling receives an invitation and in the case of the Tour de France, everyone is contracted to take part in the big tour.
In addition, Alpecin-Fenix and Arkéa-Samsic qualified as the top-ranked ProTeams from 2021, while race organizers handed over ASO game card locations to the French groups B&B Hotels-KTM and TotalEnergies.
