The 2009 Tour de France was the 96th edition of Tour de France, one of cycling's Grand Tours. This Tour featured 180 riders from 30 countries on 20 cycling teams, starting in the principality of Monaco on 4 July and finishing on the Champs-Élysées in Paris on 26 July.[1]
Of the teams taking part in the Giro, 17 were ProTour teams, and 3 were Professional Continental teams.[2] Fuji-Servetto were the only ProTour team not to receive an invitation.[3] The three Professional Continental teams included were Agritubel, Skil-Shimano and Cervélo TestTeam. Each of the 20 teams invited to the race entered a squad of nine riders.[4]
Twenty-four riders abandoned the three-week race before reaching Paris.[5] Alberto Contador of the Astana team won the race; after winning the 15th stage to Verbier, and thus taking over the yellow jersey which he kept until the end of the race.[6]
