Audrey Lemieux and Tino Rossi will be providing French-language commentary for the Tour de France for FloSports/FloBikes, which is showing the Grand Tour race in Canada

Audrey Lemieux and Tino Rossi are looking forward to the alarm going off very early in the next few weeks.

“It is long hours but we are so passionate that for us it’s just candy,” said Lemieux, a competitive road racer herself for 12 years before joining forces with Robbi Weldon in the Para-cycling program. Other contenders like Vingegaard, Slovenian Primoz Roglic and Belgium’s Remco Evenepoel have had to recover from a massive crash in April at the Tour of the Basque Country.

The race, which features 52,320 metres of overall elevation including four mountaintop finishes, ends with a 33.7-kilometre individual time trial from Monaco to Nice rather than the normal final sprint on the Champs-Elysees, due to the Paris Olympics.
