Continental is a main sponsor and tyre supplier of selected teams at the 112th edition of the Tour de France, one of cycling’s premier events. For the first time in 2025, the tyre manufacturer will also exclusively equip the organiser’s official support motorcycles with its two-wheeler tyres. The manufacturer says the event provides “an excellent platform” to demonstrate its sustainable performance technology in front of a large international following. The Tour starts in Lille on 5 July, ending on the Champs-Élysées in Paris on 27 July, covering 3,320km over 21 stages. This year’s Tour includes the return of legendary climbs such as Mont Ventoux and Col de la Loze, demanding mountain stages that put maximum strain on tyres.
