The organisers of the Tour de France are set to implement a new Covid-19 protocol at the race this July, which will see interaction between fans and riders reduced.
During last year’s edition, 17 riders left the race with Covid-19 before the final day in Paris. The virus also heavily impacted this year’s Giro d’Italia, where Soudal Quick-Step finished with just two riders, having lost five to Covid positives, including the race leader Remco Evenepoel.
