Pogacar enjoys Nice final stage to win Tour

Slovenian speeds to emphatic third title, and a second GT victory of 2024

Tadej Pogacar had no need to attack on the final stage of the Tour de France. Defending a lead of more than five minutes in Sunday's time trial, he was set to comfortably win the race for the first time in three years and a third time overall, anyway.

But defense has not been in his vocabulary during this race, and he simply could not resist another attack.

With his main rival Jonas Vingegaard unable to challenge him, Pogacar celebrated his Tour victory in style with a dominant win in the time trial, which ended in Nice, for the 17th stage win of his already illustrious Tour career.
