Hail, floods and landslides had changed the end of stage 19, and the start of today's stage. Originally, today was suppose to have three climbs and a total of 130 kilometers. The stage changed to just the final climb and just 58 kilometers. With that in mind, it was going to have to be an all out assault from the base of the Val Thorens if any changes were going to be made on the general classification placings. As the peloton started the climb it was the teammates of Steven Kruijswijk (Jumbo-Visma), George Bennett and Laurens De Plus driving the pace. Behind them sat Ineos with the plan of keeping Egan Bernal in Yellow and Geraint Thomas in third overall. Peeking around the corner is Julian Alaphilippe (Deceuninck-Quick Step) hoping to hold onto second at the very least.
