Despite crowning a worthy champion in Geraint Thomas, last year’s Tour de France faced some criticism for being, well, a bit boring—especially in the first week. It also marked the sixth win in seven tries for Team Sky (now Team Ineos), a fact not lost on organizers.

So in an effort to combat nap-worthy finishes while perhaps “encouraging” another contender to win, this year’s Tour boasts lots of altitude and some interesting stage profiles to create one of the more unorthodox routes in recent memory. As for Ineos, star rider Chris Froome crashed terribly in the Critérium du Dauphiné and will need at least six months to recover. That said, Egan Bernal (who crashed while training for the Giro d’Italia but is back and ready to go) will be a more than adequate replacement.
