Who won the 2024 Tour de France?
The full general classification and the standings for the other jerseys
Tadej Pogačar's (UAE Team Emirates) won the Tour de France, finishing more than six minutes ahead of his closest challenger and with a haul of six stage wins including the final three back-to-back.
On stage 20, the final road stage, Pogačar followed an attack from Jonas Vingegaard (Visma-Lease a Bike) in the final 3km of the stage and easily outsprinted the Dane at the finish, taking his fifth stage victory of the race and all but securing his third Tour title.
He went on to secure it with victory on the hilly final-day time trial from Monaco to Nice, putting another minute into Vingegaard, who achieved a hard-fought second place just months are suffering a punctured lung and several other serious injuries in a crash at Itzulia Basque Country.
Third place both on stage 21 and overall went to Remco Evenepoel (Soudal Quick-Step), who also won the best young rider's classification on his debut Tour - 15 minutes ahead of next-best Carlos Rodríguez (Ineos Grenadiers) - and finished nine minutes down on Pogačar.
The only changes on GC on the final day were at the opposite end to Pogačar, as Santiago Buitrago (Bahrain Victorious) leapfrogged Giulio Ciccone (Lidl-Trek) into 10th place.
Biniam Girmay (Intermarché-Wanty) made history as the first African to win the green jersey of the points classification, while Richard Carapaz (EF Education-EasyPost) secured the polka dot king of the mountains classification on the climbs of stage 20.
UAE Team Emirates topped off their Tour in style by winning the team classification, with three riders in the top 10: Pogačar, João Almeida and Adam Yates.
