Race course

After his victory on the second stage, Kurt Stöpel was the first German stage winner and also the first German to wear the yellow jersey . But already on the next stage he was unable to defend the top position after several flat tires and had to relinquish the leadership jersey to the dominant player in the 1932 Tour de France, André Leducq . Stöpel finished second overall.

Leducq defended the overall lead taken on the third stage until the finish in Paris. During the tour, the Frenchman was able to achieve a total of six stage wins, including the stage over the Col du Galibier in the Alps, on which the riders had to fight with fresh snow. With an average speed of 29.313 km / h, Leducq achieved his second Tour de France victory after 1930 . The best team in 1932 was Italy.

Kurt Stöpel documented the course of the Tour de France in 1932 as an experience report (see literature).
