Stage 15 | Rodez – Carcassonne | Tour de France 2022

A hot day on the Tour de France with temperatures hitting 40 degrees and the racing equally frenetic, particularly over the final 50 kilometres.

Lionel Birnie is back on the Tour to join François Thomazeau and Ian Boswell as the second week draws to a close. It saw a big win for one of the sprinters who was hoping to find a chink in Wout van Aert’s armour, and a difficult day for the yellow jersey’s team.
