Tour de France 2026, Stage 17 (Chambéry–Voiron, 174.7 km, July 22, 2026): Jasper Philipsen (Alpecin-Deceuninck) wins the bunch sprint
Probability
28%
Stage 17 is the last realistic sprint opportunity of this Tour before the Alpine finales (Stages 18–20). Despite 2,362 m of climbing, the 174.7 km stage finishes in Voiron after a flat final section — bunch sprint likely. Philipsen is predicted for the green jersey in Paris and stage wins 11 and 12 of this race; his main points rival is currently Mads Pedersen (Lidl-Trek, leading the points classification after Stage 12). Both will arrive at Voiron with full sprint trains. ~5–6 sprinters expected at the line; individual win probability per sprinter 20–35%. Philipsen has a profile advantage on mildly hilly sprint finales.
