Like last year, Jonas Vingegaard was crowned Champion of the Tour de France. The 26-year-old crossed the finish line with his team-mates on Sunday’s final stage in Paris and, as expected, retained the yellow jersey. In the overall standings, the Dane has a lead of seven and a half minutes over Slovenian Tadej Pogacar and almost eleven minutes over Brit Adam Yates. Felix Gall finished his first Tour of France in a strong eighth place.
In the end, the East Tyrolean, who won the king’s stage on Wednesday, was more than 16 minutes behind Vingegaard, who had now won the Tour twice. The 115.5 kilometer final stage, on which the yellow jersey is traditionally no longer attacked, was won by Belgian Jordi Meeus in the finish sprint ahead of his compatriot Jasper Philipsen. Dylan Groenewegen from the Netherlands was third.
The Italian Giulio Ciccone won the red dotted jersey for the best climber ahead of Gall. Philipsen got the green jersey for the best points.
