NB : today, the women stage will finish one hour before the men stage starts.
The Tour is back in Paris, but for the first time, a climb up Montmartre is included in the Champs ΓlysΓ©es loop.
Ruling point (art. 20.b): if it is/starts raining, the times are taken on the first/subsequent passage over the finish ligne.
Usually you can, it was just that the flat terrain and sprint teams made it near impossible to gain any meaningful time. As a result, it was considered a bit of an unwritten rule that you don't attack and respect the results of the last 20 days of racing. This year the time gaps were neutralised on Montmartre because of the wet conditions (pre-race safety rule).
