Thus bring the OLYMPICS with a year minus a single day. And the dates can create problems for the Tour de France, which next year should take a historic beginning on Danish ground.
this Year’s Tour de France, which is due to be settled despite coronakrisen, was on the advance pushed a week forward in comparison to the normal weeks of the settlement in order not to clash with the OLYMPICS opening.
Next year is the Tour back in familiar weeks, starting in Copenhagen 2. July and end in Paris 25. July.
But since the OLYMPICS now has been moved to 2021, with the start 23. July, the two large events run together, and overlap some days.
WORLD championships in athletics and the WORLD championships in swimming will be moved next year in order not to clash with the OLYMPICS, the two associations notified, but as yet the Tour is not announced anything out.
After the plan rolls riders in the world’s biggest cycling race out in the streets of Copenhagen to the initial time trial in stage 2. July, running two stages further through Denmark so 25. July to connect as usual, in Paris.
