COMBLOUX, FRANCE - JUNE 13: (L-R) Jonas Vingegaard of Denmark and Team Visma | Lease a Bike and Tadej Pogacar of Slovenia and UAE Team Emirates - XRG compete in the breakaway during the 77th Criterium du Dauphine 2025, Stage 6 a 126.7km stage from Valserhone to Combloux 1183m / #UCIWT / on June 13, 2025 in Combloux, France.

In the absence of any obvious weak points for Tadej Pogačar (UAE Team Emirates-XRG) at the 2025 Tour de France, one factor in favour of his biggest rival, Jonas Vingegaard (Visma-Lease a Bike), is the return to three mountain locations where the latter has had the advantage at previous Tours.

Iconic climbs have always proved the point of difference in the race for the yellow jersey at the Tour de France. Be it the Alps, Pyrenees, Massif Central, or a certain 'Giant of Provence', each climb at the Tour is packed with history and anecdotes of cycling icons gone by.
