Bernard Hinault gives his analysis (with English translation) of the critical Stage 7 of the Tour de France and who he thinks has a winning edge.

I think I am officially qualified as ‘not paying attention to the world’ now that the Tour de France has started and I didn’t even know it.

I may not be an avid cycling fan, but I do think the Tour de France is an amazing display of human fitness and endurance. I couldn’t make it through one of the sub-sections, let alone an entire stage of the race.

The entire thing is truly an amazing sight.
