Tadej Pogacar celebrated his fourth Tour de France title in Paris but was denied what would have been a stunning final stage victory as Wout van Aert rode away on the wet cobbles of Montmartre to win on the Champs-Elysees.

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 Pogacar. Especially considering Sunday’s final stage had already been neutralized for safety reasons and he just had to complete the race.

Florian Lipowitz planned a quiet Monday in Paris after a stunning third-place finish at the Tour de France the previous day. "I am looking forward to the break," the Tour debutant said after completing the final podium behind four-time winner Tadej Pogacar and ex-champion Jonas Vingegaard.
