Planning to head over to Paris for the final stage. Any tips or advice?
How many laps of the Paris circuit? What time should you be there? Best vantage point? ![]() |

1. 10 laps of the Champs-Elysees traditionally. 2. AS EARLY AS POSSIBLE. You'll have to walk, it's completely shut down the night before. 3. Not a good stage for spectateurs. You're a long way from the road and the average speed on the CE is around 55kmh. Maybe try and get near the Arc (good luck!) where they do a u-turn and is the slowest point of the day. The final day is also big for VIPs, so often the best spots are taken up by grandstands you can't enter. |
