Tadej Pogacar triumphs at the Tour de France 2025. The Slovenian of the UEE Emirates Team officially certifies its success in the twenty-first and last stage of the Grande Boucle, the Mantes La Ville-Paris (Campi Elisi), of 132.5 km.
“Due to the slippery roads in the shaded points of Montmartre, it was decided, in agreement with the commissioners of the UCI and the representatives of the teams and runners, to stop the time trial in the fourth step on the finish line, that is before the three laps that affect the Cote de la Butte Montmartre”, explained the organizers. This is for what is the general classification. Instead, the final fraction of the Grande Boucle continues for another 50 kilometers. The world champion, after an absolute domain seasoned with four stage wins, manages to put the Danish Jonas Vingegaard (Vistma Lease a Bike) behind him, second to over 4 minutes, and the German Florian Lipowitz (Red Bull Bora), third at about 11 minutes.
This is the fourth triumph in his career for Pogacar, who equals the number of victories of Chris Froome, taking only one length from the record held by Miguel Induarain, Jacques Anquetil, Eddy Merckx and Bernard Hinault. The Friulian Jonathan Milan (Lidl-Trek) conquers the green shirt and becomes the Italian third of the story to win the points ranking, after Alessandro Petacchi and Franco Bitossi. Now the cyclists are preparing for the arrival on the Elisi fields, where we return for the classic final parade after the parenthesis in Nice last year, due to the concomitance with the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.
