Summary
Photo Sipa / Charles Cuau The ninth stage of the Tour de France, Sunday 12 July, between Malemort and Ussel (Corrèze), has been shortened by 30 kilometers, while the department has been placed in heat red vigilance by Météo-France, announced the organizers and the prefecture on Saturday. It's been a week since we run every day with temperatures above 35 degrees, it's a daily fight to cool down with ice and water. "A daily fight to refresh oneself" That the course of a stage of the Tour de France is changed is not a novelty, but, for this reason, it is an unprecedented decision in the history more than a century ago of the Grande Boucle.
Furthermore, Sunday’s stage nine of the Tour de France will be shortened by 30 km (18.64 miles) due to heat risks, race organisers said on Saturday, though it will retain its originally planned start and finish points. French nuclear producers had to reduce output due to the heat on Friday.
