Frenchman Lenny Martinez takes the best time by a wide margin… Follow the time trial of the 21st stage

A final showdown for the yellow jersey? Untouchable for three weeks, Tadej Pogacar can complete his domination with a sixth victory in this 111th edition of the Tour de France, on the final stage that connects Monaco to Nice, Sunday July 21. Hilly and 33.7 km long, this time trial should lead to significant gaps and smile on the freshest riders, who climb as well as they ride.

The historic coronation of Tadej Pogacar. A third crown and a first double. Already winner of the Tour de France in 2020 and 2021, the Slovenian has secured a sufficiently comfortable lead to serenely celebrate his first Giro-Tour double, a feat not achieved since 1998 by Marco Pantani.

Remco Evenepoel as your only rival? Third, more than eight minutes behind the yellow jersey in the general classification, the Belgian could shake up the hierarchy in Nice, to secure the last victory. Winner for the first time on the Tour during the time trial of the 7th stage, the world champion of the discipline checked this last opportunity.

First arrival outside Paris. Paris Olympics 2024 obliges, the final arrival of the Grande Boucle is judged for the first time in a city other than the capital. Nice has the honors of this first, which should not be repeated in the near future, while the Tour left from Italy for the first time on June 29.
