GRThe third stage of the Tour de France cycling race will take place on Monday with some adjustments but without spectators in the French section due to a large fire burning in the Eastern Pyrenees. The local prefect, Pierre Renio de la Motte, announced that the route remains unchanged, but access will be restricted to cyclists and essential vehicles for the event's organization. Spectators are being asked not to approach the course or finish line area in Lez Angl, to ensure safety and the smooth running of the stage. The decision was made in agreement with Christian Prudhomme, director of the Tour de France, who emphasized that the adjustment is part of daily life for a cycling event organizer and that the priority is protecting people affected by the fire. The finish line is approximately 70 kilometers from where the fire started, which has already burned over 16,000 hectares and injured one firefighter and one resident.
