Tour de France final stage could copy Paris Olympics road race with cobbled climb

The men's peloton ascend the Butte de Montmartre during the Paris Olympics road race in 2024.

The Tour de France's final stage of this year’s race could include three ascents of the Butte de Montmartre as the race gets set to return to its traditional Paris finish.

Last year saw the race wrap up in Nice due to the Olympics taking place in the French capital, but will return to Paris this year.
