(French pronunciation: is an annual bicycle race held
in France and
nearby countries. First staged in 1903, the race typically covers around 3,200
kilometres (2,000 mi) and lasts three weeks. As the best known and most
prestigious of cycling's three "Grand Tours", the Tour de
France attracts riders and teams from around the world. The race is broken into
day-long segments, called stages. Individual times to finish each stage are
aggregated to determine the overall winner at the end of the race. The rider
with the lowest aggregate time at the end of each day wears the leader's yellow jersey on
the next day of racing.[1] The
course changes every year, but the race has always finished in Paris. Since 1975, the
climax of the final stage has been along the Champs-Élysées.
