William Fotheringham on stage 11: A first-ever finish outside Paris, due to the Olympics starting later that week. The Tour hasn’t ended in a time trial since the LeMond-Fignon epic of 1989; if the top of the standings is tight, this could be equally memorable but usually by now the race is nailed down. It’s far from flat, and very technical, which suggests Pogačar or Vingegaard rather than Evenepoel for the win, but on day 21 it’s largely a matter of who has anything left in the tank.

Good afternoon and welcome to the Guardian’s latest Tour de France 2024 liveblog. It’s the final stage of the Tour de France 2024 and today, the riders will be taking part in a 33.7km individual time trial from Monaco to Nice. It’s not the usual run around the sights of Paris and a race down the Champs-Élysées this year for the peloton, due to the upcoming Olympic Games in the French capital.

So, what do we have in store today? Well, I think it’s fair to say that time trials aren’t the most riveting or anticipated stage of any Tour, but today’s iteration at least has some (potentially) exciting things to look out for. Firstly, it’s not a flat time trial – the route heads from Monaco ininland towards the Col d’Èze summit via the La Turbie. That means lots of climbing and fast descents.

Secondly, this year’s Tour hasn’t been a fortunate one for the breakaways, so that’s left 10 teams so far without a win. Could there be a shock triumph in store as one of these teams push to make their mark before the Tour is over? Or will one of the big General Classification (GC) contenders bag the stage?
