According to Carlton I can watch the tour with no adverts on eurosport.com. I've been watching on my phone using Eurosport player app but this does have adverts. I've tried opening eurosport.com in Chrome but can't see how to watch the tour there. Anyone know what I need to do please?

I'm watching eurosport player in chrome without ads. Go to eurosportplayer.com login and click the tdf uninterrupted coverage button.

Thanks got it! There are two choices - 'on now' has adverts and then there's the 'uninterrupted' one - I seem to have clicked the wrong one every time.

The whole reason to be of the Tour is advertising. And often for horrible companies. A bizzare mix of machiste (macho) white-washing, green-washing and selling stuff. That said I was delighted to see Hirshi win today.

The Mayor of Lyon made some pertinent comments today and Rennes' new eco Mayor is not having the Tour next year because it's macho and polluting; a procession of filthy diesels following ****ed up blokes on bikes who in turn follow a bunch of vehicles with people chucking out Chinese tat. The Tour needs to change and I say that with my béret on.

Am sad about the spoiler above. Was choosing where to watch the highlights today. 😞

You should send them an email about the benifits of the Renault Zoe edukator.

No need, the members of the public interviewed in Lyon used their seconds of screen time to moan about the diesels and ask why the Tour teams weren't using electric cars.

In answer to the original question a TNT SAT card in a sat box gets you France 3 and France 2 with only enough advertising time to get something out of the fridge.
