After their big day and the two sections of Saturdaythe riders set off today for the last stage of the Tour Cycliste de Martinique.
A 142.7 km stage that connects Rivière-Pilote to Le Lamentin.
This 9th stage is a final in apotheosis but anything but a part of pleasure. The start is set for 1 p.m. at the Poirier roundabout, in Rivière-Pilote.
The riders then head towards Ducos and the Cocotte roundabout, crossing Sainte-Luce and Rivière-Salée.
A Ducos / Le François and Le Lamentin loop
Then, a loop awaits them, between Ducos, Le François and Le Lamentin. Six loops exactly and six passages from the summit of Morne Pitault to François. Five passes will count for the polka dot jersey.
Suffice to say that this last trying stage could still change the general situation and see riders attacking, trying everything to dislodge Dilhan Will, solid yellow jersey so far. Especially after his performance the day before in the time trial.
