The 112th edition of the Tour de France—arguably the most iconic stage race in road cycling—gets underway in Lille on 5 July.
Twenty-three teams will take part in the race. All 18 UCI WorldTeams were automatically invited. They will be joined by five UCI ProTeams: the two highest ranked UCI ProTeams in 2024 (Lotto and Israel–Premier Tech), along with three teams (Team TotalEnergies, Tudor Pro Cycling Team and Uno-X Mobility) selected by Amaury Sport Organisation (ASO), the organisers of the Tour.
Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) rules allow twenty two teams to enter a Grand Tour – eighteen UCI WorldTeams, the two highest ranked UCI ProTeams from the previous season and two teams invited by the organisers. Grand Tour race organisers ASO and RCS Sport asked the UCI to allow an additional wildcard team to be invited to Grand Tour events, after lobbying from smaller teams competing for the wildcard slots Larger teams were reported to not support the request, with Visma–Lease a Bike noting that an additional team would decrease safety. In March 2025, the UCI announced that twenty three teams would be permitted in 2025, allowing an additional ProTeam to be invite. ASO subsequently announced the teams on 31 March 2025
They’ll take on a 3,338.8 km challenge over 21 stages, culminating in the traditional finish on the Champs-Élysées in Paris on 27 July.
Each team fields 8 riders, with line-ups being announced gradually.
