Tour de France: Unchained Season 3 OTT Release Date - When and where to watch final edition of hit docu-series
Tour de France: Unchained Season 3 OTT Release Date - Netflix's fan-favourite sports docu-series is hitting the finish line. The final season, Season 3, drops on July 2, 2025, on Netflix, and it's packing all the grit, rivalries, heartbreak, and glory from the 2024 Tour de France. With eight hard-hitting episodes, this is the last, no-holds-barred look at cycling's most brutal race, and it promises to go out with a bang. What's this show all about? If you've followed the first two seasons, you know Unchained is all about men pushed to their breaking point, egos clashing, dreams crashing, and others rising from the dust. Season 1 gave us the foundation, an introduction to the chaotic, ruthless world of the Tour de France. We saw teams battling weather, injury, and each other. Season 2 dialled it up: more drama, more crashes, and raw emotional moments. Jonas Vingegaard's rise, Tadej Pogačar's relentless push, and the mind games of elite cycling were front and centre. Now, Tour de France: Unchained Season 3 turns the intensity to max. This is the 2024 Tour, tensions are higher, and the stakes couldn't be bigger. Season 3: What's going down? This final season is pure adrenaline. Jonas Vingegaard is back from a nasty crash earlier in the year. Most thought he wouldn't make it. But he shows up anyway, bruised but burning. Then there's Tadej Pogačar, fitter, faster, and with a chip on his shoulder. There's a new generation hungry to take over. Young riders, outsider teams, and fearless newcomers come flying into the peloton, ready to blow it all up. The Tour isn't just a race but a war on two wheels. And in this final chapter, the lines between underdog and champion get blurred. Who's in it? The cameras follow every key player and the unsung workhorses who live and die by the team strategy. Some familiar faces include: Jonas Vingegaard – The quiet killer with ice in his veins Tadej Pogačar – The Slovenian superstar with fire in his legs Wout van Aert – Always in the mix, always dangerous Fabio Jakobsen – The comeback story you'll never forget Tom Pidcock, Jasper Philipsen, David Gaudu – Young, bold, and out for blood Narrated once again by Alec Newman, the series is brought to life by the team behind F1: Drive to Survive: Box to Box Films and Quad Productions. James Gay-Rees and Paul Martin return as executive producers, with razor-sharp editing by Franco Bogino and team.
