The 2022 Tour de France is headed to its third country on Thursday, July 6, with the peloton taking off from Belgium at 6 a.m. ET. The race gets going in Binche, Belgium and runs to Longwy, France, with the finish expected sometime in the 11 a.m. hour. The stage will air in its entirety on Peacock, and on USA Network starting at 8 a.m.

The Tour wrapped another wild stage on Wednesday with a sprint to the finish claimed by Australian Simon Clarke. He edged out Taco van der Hoorn (NED) in a photo finish. Edvald Boasson Hagen (NOR) finished third and Neilson Powless (USA) finished fourth. Wout van Aert finished 16th and retained his yellow jersey. Powless and Boasson Hagen climbed into second and third place, 13 and 14 seconds back, respectively. Pre-Tour favorite Tadej Pogačar continues chugging along, sitting in fourth place, 19 seconds back of van Aert.

Stage 6 sees the big names favored, with van Aert atop the DraftKings Sportsbook odds at +400. Pogačar is second at +750 and Matthieu van der Poel and Matej Mohoric are next at +1200.
