Over its long history women have been mostly excluded from the Tour de France. Until recently.
In 2022, after a long campaign by some of female cycling's biggest names, the Tour de France Femmes was introduced. So how is it doing? And will it ever be on a level footing with the much older and long-established men's race?
We hear from competitors, sponsors, broadcasters and race director Marion Rousse.
Produced and presented by Lexy O'Connor
