29 August 2020 – Nice to Nice, 156 km (97 mi)
An early break was made by Michael Schär, Cyril Gautier and Fabien Grellier, who split the six mountain points on offer evenly between themselves; Grellier was awarded the King of the Mountains jersey by virtue of having scored his two points first. The break was caught with 100 km still to go, after which it started to rain, making the downhill stage very slippery and leading to several crashes. The riders agreed a truce in the peloton. A large pileup occurred with 3 km to go, however the riders involved were all credited with the same time as the stage winner. Alexander Kristoff won the final sprint. The crashes led to the withdrawal of John Degenkolb, Rafael Valls and Philippe Gilbert and left several other riders injured.
