The 2016 Tour de France was the 103rd edition of the Tour de France, one of cycling's Grand Tours. The {{convert|3529|km|0|abbr=on}}-long race consisted of 21 stages, starting on 2 July in Mont Saint-Michel, Normandy, and concluding on 24 July with the Champs-Élysées stage in Paris. A total of 198 riders from 22 teams entered the race. The overall general classification was won by Chris Froome of {{UCI team code|SKY|2016}}, with the second and third places were taken by Romain Bardet ({{UCI team code|ALM|2016}}) and Nairo Quintana ({{UCI team code|MOV|2016}}), respectively.
Mark Cavendish of {{UCI team code|DDD|2016}} won the opening stage to take the general classification leader's yellow jersey. {{UCI team code|TNK|2016}} rider Peter Sagan won the second stage to claim yellow and held onto it until the fifth stage when Greg Van Avermaet ({{UCI team code|BMC|2016}}) took the stage and the yellow jersey. Van Avermaet lost ground in the mountainous eighth stage, finishing over 25 minutes behind the stage winner Froome, who took the yellow jersey. Froome retained the yellow jersey through to stage 17 and extended his lead further following a strong performance in the stage 18's mountain time trial. Bardet won the mountainous 19th stage and moved into second place overall and despite crashing in the rain, Froome was able to extend his lead. He then held the lead into the finish in Paris.
The points classification was won by Sagan, who won three stages. {{UCI team code|TNK|2016|nolink=yes}}'s Rafał Majka won the mountains classification. {{UCI team code|OBE|2016b}} rider Adam Yates, in fourth place overall, won the young rider classification.

In the run up to the 2016 Tour de France, Chris Froome ({{UCI team code|SKY|2016|nolink=yes}}) was seen by many as the top pre-race favourite for the general classification. His closest rivals were thought to be Nairo Quintana ({{UCI team code|MOV|2016|nolink=yes}}) and Alberto Contador ({{UCI team code|TNK|2016|nolink=yes}}). The other riders considered contenders for the general classification were Richie Porte ({{UCI team code|BMC|2016|nolink=yes}}), Thibaut Pinot ({{UCI team code|FDJ|2016|nolink=yes}}), Fabio Aru ({{UCI team code|AST|2016|nolink=yes}}), Vincenzo Nibali ({{UCI team code|AST|2016|nolink=yes}}), who won the 2014 Tour and the 2016 Giro d'Italia, Romain Bardet ({{UCI team code|ALM|2016|nolink=yes}}), and Tejay van Garderen ({{UCI team code|BMC|2016|nolink=yes}}).{{cite news|last1=Benson|first1=Daniel|last2=Fletcher|first2=Patrick|title=Tour de France: Analysing the favourites and their seasons so far|url=http://www.cyclingnews.com/features/tour-de-france-analysing-the-favourites-and-their-seasons-so-far/|access-date=6 January 2017|work=Cyclingnews.com|date=20 June 2016}}{{cite news|last=Westby|first=Matt|title=Tour de France: Chris Froome, Nairo Quintana and the other favourites|url=http://www.skysports.com/cycling/news/15264/10327386/tour-de-france-chris-froome-nairo-quintana-and-the-other-favourites|access-date=25 July 2016|work=Sky Sports|publisher=Sky plc|date=1 July 2016}}{{cite news|last=Ingle|first=Sean|title=Tour de France 2016 yellow jersey race: will Nairo Quintana upset Chris Froome?|url=https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2016/jun/28/tour-de-france-2016-chris-froome-yellow|access-date=6 January 2017|work=The Guardian|date=28 June 2016}}{{cite news|last=MacLeary|first=John|title=Tour de France 2016: Main contenders|url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/cycling/2016/06/30/tour-de-france-2016-main-contenders/|access-date=6 January 2017|work=The Daily Telegraph|date=1 July 2016}}{{cite news|last=Guinness|first=Rupert|title=The top 10 contenders for this year's Tour de France 'maillot jaune'|url=http://www.espn.com/sports/endurance/story/_/id/16678540/tour-de-france-2016-top-10-contenders-year-maillot-jaune|access-date=6 January 2017|publisher=ESPN|date=1 July 2016}}{{cite news|last=Finch-Penninger|first=Jamie|title=Contenders test their Tour de France legs|url=http://www.sbs.com.au/cyclingcentral/article/2016/06/21/contenders-test-their-tour-de-france-legs|access-date=6 January 2017|work=SBS|publisher=Commonwealth of Australia|date=21 June 2016}}
Froome, who won both the 2013 and 2015 editions of the race, had shown his form during the season with overall victories in two stage races, the Herald Sun Tour and the Critérium du Dauphiné, a race considered to be the warm-up for the Tour.{{cite news|last=Clarke|first=Stuart|title=Which is the best Tour de France warmup race?|url=http://www.cyclingweekly.co.uk/news/racing/tour-de-france/which-is-the-best-tour-de-france-warmup-race-177648|access-date=7 January 2017|work=Cycling Weekly|date=18 June 2015}} The runner-up in the 2013 and 2015 Tours, Quintana, had won three stage races in the lead up to the Tour, the Volta a Catalunya, the Tour de Romandie, and the Route du Sud. Contador, winner of the 2007 and 2009 Tours, found success in stage races during the season, winning the Tour of the Basque Country and placing second at Paris–Nice and the Volta a Catalunya.
The sprinters considered favourites for the points classification and wins on the flat or hilly bunch sprint finishes were Peter Sagan ({{UCI team code|TNK|2016|nolink=yes}}), Marcel Kittel ({{UCI team code|EQS|2016|nolink=yes}}), André Greipel ({{UCI team code|LTS|2016|nolink=yes}}), Mark Cavendish ({{UCI team code|DDD|2016|nolink=yes}}), Alexander Kristoff ({{UCI team code|KAT|2016|nolink=yes}}), John Degenkolb ({{UCI team code|TGA|2016|nolink=yes}}) and Michael Matthews ({{UCI team code|OBE|2016b|nolink=yes}}).{{cite news|last=Clarke|first=Stuart|title=How the sprinters are preparing for the Tour de France|url=http://www.cyclingweekly.co.uk/news/racing/how-the-sprinters-are-preparing-for-the-tour-de-france-233244|access-date=25 July 2016|work=Cycling Weekly|date=14 June 2015}}{{cite news|last=Henrys|first=Colin|title=Tour de France 2016: green jersey contenders|url=https://roadcyclinguk.com/racing/previews/tour-de-france-2016-green-jersey-contenders.html|access-date=25 July 2016|work=Road Cycling UK|publisher=Mpora|date=29 June 2016}}{{cite news|last=Frattini|first=Kirsten|title=The kings of the sprints at the Tour de France|url=http://www.cyclingnews.com/features/the-kings-of-the-sprints-at-the-tour-de-france/|access-date=6 January 2017|website=Cyclingnews.com|date=1 July 2016}}{{cite news|last=Glendenning|first=Barry|title=Tour de France 2016 green jersey race: Peter Sagan and his main rivals|url=https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2016/jun/28/tour-de-france-2016-green-jersey-peter-sagan|access-date=6 January 2017|work=The Guardian|date=28 June 2016}}{{cite news|last=Westby|first=Matt|title=Tour de France: How Marcel Kittel, Mark Cavendish and the other sprinters compare|url=http://www.skysports.com/cycling/news/15264/10330607/tour-de-france-how-marcel-kittel-mark-cavendish-and-the-other-sprinters-compare|access-date=6 January 2017|work=Sky Sports|publisher=Sky plc|date=1 July 2016}}{{cite news|last=Guinness|first=Rupert|title=Kittel, Cavendish among the usual sprinters to watch at Tour|url=http://www.espn.com/sports/endurance/story/_/id/16688520/tour-de-france-2016-there-tour-there-sprint-finishes|access-date=6 January 2017|publisher=ESPN|date=1 July 2016}} Sagan, the world road race champion and winner of the points classification in the four previous Tours, had won the one-day classics, Gent–Wevelgem and the Tour of Flanders, and two stages of the Tour of California during the season before the Tour. Kittel's 2016 season had been successful up to the Tour as he had amassed a total of nine wins from sprints, most notably, two stages of the Giro and the Scheldeprijs one-day race. He also won both the general and points classifications of the Dubai Tour. Greipel's season total of wins so far was eight, with three Giro stages. Cavendish's form was not clear as his season was mostly spent training for the omnium track event at the Olympic Games the month following the Tour. Although Kristoff's total of wins in the season was eight, they were not in major races. Degenkolb had spent the majority of his season recovering from an injury and it was thought he could pose a threat. Matthews only had two wins so far in the season, both at Paris–Nice, including the race's points classification.

"I think it's going to take a complete cyclist – but the stage that certainly stands out for me is Mont Ventoux", he added.
The first stage started at the Mont Saint-Michel island monastery and finished north on at Utah Beach. The second stage was held between Saint-Lô and Cherbourg-en-Cotentin. The third stage left Manche in Granville and headed south to the finish in Angers. Stage four took the race further south, between Saumur and Limoges, with the fifth stage crossing the elevated region of Massif Central to the finish at the Le Lioran mountain resort. Stage six headed to Montauban before the entrance to the Pyrenees in stage seven. This mountain range also hosted two further stages: a roller-coaster stage eight and the finish in Andorra in stage nine. The following three stages, 10 to 12, crossed the south of the country eastwards to Mont Ventoux. After an individual time trial, stage 14 took the race northwards through the Rhône Valley, which was followed by a stage that took the race into the Jura Mountains. Stage 16 ended with a finish in Bern, Switzerland. The next four stages took place in and around the Alps, before a long transfer took the Tour to the finish with the Champs-Élysées stage in Paris.

Classification leadership and minor prizes
There were four main individual classifications contested in the 2016 Tour de France, as well as a team competition. The most important was the general classification, which was calculated by adding each rider's finishing times on each stage.{{sfn|Race regulations|2016|p=30}} Time bonuses (time subtracted) were awarded at the end of every stage apart from the two individual time trials. The first three riders got 10, 6 and 4 seconds, respectively.{{sfn|Race regulations|2016|p=30}} If a crash had happened within the final {{convert|3|km|1|abbr=on}} of a stage, not including time trials and summit finishes, the riders involved would have received the same time as the group they were in when the crash occurred.{{sfn|Race regulations|2016|p=33}} The rider with the lowest cumulative time was the winner of the general classification and was considered the overall winner of the Tour.{{sfn|Race regulations|2016|p=30}} The rider leading the classification wore a yellow jersey.{{sfn|Race regulations|2016|p=23}}

The second classification was the points classification. Riders received points for finishing among the highest placed in a stage finish, or in intermediate sprints during the stage. The points available for each stage finish were determined by the stage's type.{{sfn|Race regulations|2016|p=29}} The leader was identified by a green jersey.{{sfn|Race regulations|2016|p=23}}
The third classification was the mountains classification. Points were awarded to the riders that reached the summit of the most difficult climbs first. The climbs were categorised as fourth-, third-, second- or first-category and hors catégorie, with the more difficult climbs rated lower.{{sfn|Race regulations|2016|p=29}} Double points were awarded on the summit finishes on stages 9, 12, 17 and 19.{{sfn|Race regulations|2016|p=29}} The leader wore a white jersey with red polka dots.{{sfn|Race regulations|2016|p=23}}

The final classification was a team classification. This was calculated using the finishing times of the best three riders per team on each stage; the leading team was the team with the lowest cumulative time. The number of stage victories and placings per team determined the outcome of a tie.{{sfn|Race regulations|2016|p=30}} The riders in the team that lead this classification were identified with yellow number bibs on the back of their jerseys and yellow helmets.{{sfn|Race regulations|2016|p=23}}
In addition, there was a combativity award given after each stage to the rider considered, by a jury, to have "made the greatest effort and who demonstrated the best qualities of sportsmanship".{{sfn|Race regulations|2016|p=30}} No combativity awards were given for the time trials and the final stage.{{sfn|Race regulations|2016|p=19}} The winner wore a red number bib the following stage.{{sfn|Race regulations|2016|p=30}} At the conclusion of the Tour, Peter Sagan won the overall super-combativity award, again, decided by a jury.{{sfn|Race regulations|2016|p=30}}
