The peloton will set off from Roanne at 1:20 p.m. (fictitious start at 1:05 p.m.) and will cross the departments of Loire, Rhône and Saône-et-Loire. The arrival is scheduled around 5:20 p.m. (if we take into account an average speed of 42 km/h).

Then, the Col des Ecorbans (2.1km at 6.9%) and the Col de la Casse Froide, 3rd category (5.2km at 6.1%). Finally will come the turn of the 2nd category passes, namely the Col de la Croix Montmain (5.5km at 6.1%) and the Col de la Croix Rosier (5.3km at 7.6%). All peaks are between 633 and 853 meters above sea level. On Wednesday, Jasper Philipsen won the final sprint, during the last course for true pure sprinters.
