Tadej Pogačar of Slovenia outclassed the field with a convincing victory in the world's most prestigious cycling race. Highlights, results are here.
Last year’s Tour concluded outside Paris for the first time since 1905 because of a scheduling conflict with the Olympics, with the final stage held in Nice. The Champs-Élysées returned this year for the conclusion of the 3,320-kilometer (2,060-mile) race.
The roads were dangerously slippery after heavy rain. A fourth Tour de France title was all but won anyway, so finishing safely in the pack would do fine for Tadej Pogačar. Especially considering Sunday's final stage had already been neutralized for safety reasons and he just had to complete the race.
Wout van Aert denied Tadej Pogacar a prestigious stage win, but Pogacar is still partying in Paris having retained his Tour title. That's his fourth Tour triumph overall... now let's see if he goes for the Grand Tour treble later this year. Until then, it's 'au revoir' from the Champs-Elysees.
