Edoardo Affini (Visma-Lease A Bike) could be the first rider to set a time that could prove hard to beat and he rolls out at 12.49pm.

Jeremy Whittle reports from Rouen … Update: Date: 2025-07-09T10:58:51.000Z Title: Stage five: Caen to Caen (33km Individual Time Trial) Content: From William Fotheringham's stage-by-stage guide: The first decisive day in the battle for the overall, a relatively long time trial on the rolling bocage north-east of Caen, largely on wide main roads that will suit the most powerful riders in the field. The favourites need to at least limit any losses; the winner should be a pure rouleur. In the preview he submitted before the race started, m'learned colleague Lord Fotheringham originally tipped Filippo Ganna for the stage win today having failed to foresee that the big Italian Ineos Grenadiers rider would be forced to abandon the race with a concussion after crashing during the first stage. The Swiss Decathlon Ag2r La Mondiale rider Stefan Bissegger is another man who would have had his eye on victory today but he was also forced to abandon the race on the opening day.
