Tour de France Highlights: Season 2016, Episode 17

2016 - 17: Stage Sixteen

Gary Imlach and Chris Boardman present highlights of stage 16. Today's stage across the Swiss border to Berne was designed with two things in mind. One was to give the sprinters a final opportunity to do their thing before four gruelling stages through the Alps. The other was to celebrate the life and works of Fabian Cancellara, born in nearby Wohlen bei Bern. He retires this year after a glittering 16-year career. Just one categorised climb along the way, but the road is rarely flat and a bunch sprint is far from certain. Commentary by Ned Boulting and David Millar with Daniel Friebe reporting from the roadside.
