Tour de France 2023 Stage 6: How to watch, TV and live stream details, start time, route map and profile
Still, if the Slovenian did fancy a redemption mission, then Stage 6 could provide the perfect stage…
The second day in the Pyrenees hinges on the infamous Aspin-Tourmalet combo ahead of the race’s first summit finish at Cauterets. The historic Col du Tourmalet (17.1km at 7.3%) is one of the most famous Tour ascents of all time and, perhaps, the only legendary ascent of the entire edition – although coming so far from the finish may dull its potential piquancy.

Still, if this short mountain stage is raced anything like the Granon stage at last year’s Tour, then we could see similar levels of activity on the Tourmalet as we saw on the Galibier in Stage 11 in 2022. It remains to be seen if any severe damage can be done on the final climb with its gentle average gradient of 5.4%.
But there’s a steep double-digit segment near the top of the 16km test to conclude what could be a pretty full-on day – so it’s not infeasible that some of the GC favourites look to make a big statement.
How can I watch the 2023 Tour de France on TV and live stream?
