Tour de France, Stage 7: Start time, TV channel, live stream, course map, favorites to win

The 2022 Tour de France heads into the mountains for the first time and we’ll start to separate the wheat from the chaff in this year’s race. The Tour got hilly with Stage 6, but as the elevation profile shows below, Stage 7 is going to be a sizable increase in difficulty. It’s not the most difficult mountain stage, but it will test the cyclists.

The stage gets going Friday morning at 6:30 a.m. ET when the peloton leaves Tomblaine. It will air in its entirety on Peacock and on TV via USA Network starting at 8 a.m. The stage wraps at La Super Plache Des Belles Filles in the 11 a.m. hour.

Tadej Pogačar claimed his first stage on Thursday with a win at Stage 6 and heads into Stage 7 as the favorite. He is installed at +200 at DraftKings Sportsbook and is followed by Jonas Vingegaard at +800. Pogačar claimed the yellow jersey on Thursday and is now -400 to win the overall race.
