The 2020 Tour de France has provisionally been postponed until late August.
The Tour de France, first run in 1903, is known as the biggest race in world cycling and is one of the three grand tours, alongside the Vuelta a Espana and Giro d’Italia. The grand tours are the only races allowed to go for three week’s duration and are the most prestigious tours on the calendar.
Last year’s Tour de France was won by Colombia’s Egan Bernal, who edged out last year’s winner Geraint Thomas. Steven Kruijswijk of the Netherlands finishd third.
