Stage 13 saw Mauro Schmid take the win, but the most exciting news from a British perspective was Tom Pidcock, who worked his way up to fourth on general classification after escaping in the breakaway.
Today has the potential to be the most exciting stage of the Tour yet, with climbing from the very start. Just 14km into the day, the riders tackle the Grand Ballon (21.5km at 4.8%), before three more categorised climbs: the Col du Page (9.8km at 4.7%), the Ballon d'Alsace (8.9km at 6.9%) and the concluding Col du Haag (11.2km at 7.3%).
That final ascent is likely to be where any general classification attacks are launched, and you can almost guarantee Tadej Pogačar will see it as another opportunity to add a stage victory.
While the yellow jersey already appears to be heading the Slovenian's way, the battle behind him is beginning to heat up. Jonas Vingegaard holds just a 30-second advantage over Remco Evenepoel, while a chasing group featuring Juan Ayuso, Paul Seixas and Florian Lipowitz remains firmly in contention.
