Tour de France Femmes 2027 to race team time trial through London
The 2027 Tour de France Femmes will include an 18 kilometre team time trial through central London, finishing on the Mall on stage 3.
London gets a decisive early test
The 2027 Tour de France Femmes will route its third stage through central London, with an 18 kilometre team time trial scheduled for August 2. The stage will finish on the Mall and take the peloton past the Houses of Parliament.
That matters because a team time trial is not just a presentation-stage showcase. Placed on stage 3, it can shape the race before the individual selection points have fully arrived. Stronger, better-drilled squads can convert cohesion, pacing discipline, and equipment execution into early time gains, while any weakness in lineup depth or coordination is exposed quickly.
For a race that is still building its identity and reach, a central London course also gives the event a highly visible urban stage without sacrificing competitive consequence. The route detail available so far is limited, but the format alone suggests this will be one of the early reference points for GC positioning.
