Stage 8 preview: Megève → Courchevel, 132 km (Mountain)
June 14 update: An exciting Critérium du Dauphiné concludes with a mountain stage and the cat 1 climb to Courchevel. This is the first time ASO has used Courchevel since the 2005 Tour de France (see video below); however, apparently the Sunday finish (profile) doesn't go as far up the climb as 2005. It should be another great Contador vs. Froome battle before they resume at the Tour de France in just three weeks. — Steve

Stage 7 preview: Ville-la-Grand → Finhaut-Emosson, 160 km (Mountain)
June 13 update: Stage 7 with five categorized climbs ending with two HC climbs is the Queen Stage of this year's event. The course meanders south of Lake Geneva starting from Ville-la-Grand and ending at a small, picturesque (see above) mountain hamlet, Finhaut, previously used by the Tour de Suisse and Tour de l'Avenir. Chris Froome leads by 12s over Alberto Contador which isn't much given the difficulty of this stage and the number of sections greater than 9% on the finishing climb (profile) including the last km. The climb is perfectly suited to Alberto Contador. — Steve
