The season began with a classic Monte mix, dry tarmac, snow, and black ice in the French Alps. Tire strategy once again played a decisive role.

Col de Turini: Legendary hairpins with snowbanks and ice patches.

Col de l'Orme: Narrow alpine roads with sheer drops.

Gap Region: Mixed-surface challenges requiring quick adaptation.

Day-to-day weather swings meant crews had to commit to tire calls hours before stages began, often gambling with results.
