Tour de Suisse live stream 2022: how to watch every cycling stage online and on TV from anywhere

One of the last and most important stops on the road to you-know-what, the 85th edition of the Tour de Suisse offers a precious opportunity for the likes of Adam Yates, Geraint Thomas and Remco Evenepoel to put some miles on the clock and fine-tune their game plans ahead of their upcoming jaunt west of the Swiss border. Join us for a spin as we explain how to get a 2022 Tour de Suisse live stream and watch UCI WorldTour cycling online and on TV from anywhere. We also have info on this year's Tour de Suisse stage times below.

With views as breathtaking as the climbs, the Tour de Suisse leads the peloton on a merry chase into the Swiss Alps, where only the hardiest of mountain goats can truly shine.

This year's race begins with a circuit race in Küsnacht, with the route getting lumpier and bumpier through the week before a relatively flat Stage 4, which offers a short respite before a brutal Stage 6 that features the imposing Nufenen Pass and a summit finish on Moosalp.

There's another summit stage end to look forward to on Stage 7, which leads up to Malbun, with the race set to finish with a flat individual time trial in Vaduz, Liechtenstein. Picturesque won't even cover it.

Richard Carapaz may have opted against defending his title, but it's a quality field that also features Peter Sagan, Tom Pidcock and Jakob Fuglsang. Read on for everything you need to know to watch a 2022 Tour de Suisse live stream from anywhere.
