Held on board MSC Cruises’ European flagship while docked at the MSC state-of-the-art cruise terminal in Barcelona, the event brought together riders, team management, media and partners on the eve of the Grand Départ. It also highlighted the growing partnership between Tudor Pro Cycling and MSC Cruises, which started exactly one year ago.

All eyes will turn to the racing tomorrow as the Tour gets underway with a Team Time Trial through the heart of Barcelona. The spectacular setting will provide the perfect backdrop for the opening chapter of what promises to be three weeks of thrilling competition.
