The ski resort built at the foot of the Plomb du Cantal welcomed the Tour de France peloton for the finish of the longest stage of the 1975 edition, won by Michel Pollentier after 260km of racing. In 2016, Greg Van Avermaet won at Le Lioran and also took the Yellow Jersey. In 2024, Jonas Vingegaard gave his supporters hope by winning a sprint duel with Tadej Pogačar for the first time. However, the Slovenian wasn’t caught out again as he went on to seal overall victory in Nice.
