I used to watch the Tour most years but after the drugs debacles in recent years I don't pay much attention, riders like Pantani and Virenque seemingly having great stamina only to test positive. I prefered the days of Indurain, Riis, Cipollini and Ullrich.
I would still regard it as the ultimate test of stamina though (for those not on drugs), so GL to those taking part.
