Two riders have shared the last five editions of the Tour de France. Jonas Vingegaard won in 2022 and 2023. Tadej Pogačar answered with three wins in a row, in 2024, 2025 and 2026, which brings his total to five yellow jerseys. Here is how each of those five Tours was won, year by year, with the podium and the other jerseys.
2022: Jonas Vingegaard’s first Tour
The 109th Tour started in Copenhagen on 1 July and finished on the Champs-Élysées on 24 July. Wout van Aert led the race for much of the first week, before Pogačar, the defending champion, took control and won two stages in a row. The race turned in the Alps, where Vingegaard’s Jumbo–Visma team attacked Pogačar and the Dane became the first rider to take serious time from him. Vingegaard then defended and extended his lead in the Pyrenees and in the final time trial. He won by 2 minutes 43 seconds ahead of Pogačar, with Geraint Thomas third, and became the first Dane to win the Tour since Bjarne Riis in 1996. He also won the mountains classification, while his teammate Wout van Aert took the green jersey with a record 480 points.
2023: Vingegaard again, by more than seven minutes
The 110th edition began in Bilbao on 1 July and ended in Paris on 23 July. For two weeks Vingegaard and Pogačar were inseparable: only 10 seconds split them at the end of the second week. The decisive day was the stage 16 time trial, which Vingegaard won by 1 minute 38 seconds over Pogačar. The next day, in the Alps, he pushed his lead past seven minutes. He finished 7 minutes 29 seconds ahead of Pogačar, the biggest winning margin since 2014, with Adam Yates third. Jasper Philipsen won the points classification, Giulio Ciccone the mountains, and Pogačar the young rider classification for the fourth year in a row.
2024: Pogačar’s Giro–Tour double
The 111th Tour started in Florence on 29 June and, for the first time in its history, did not finish in or near Paris: the Olympic Games were coming, so the race ended in Nice on 21 July. Pogačar took the yellow jersey on stage 4 to Valloire and kept it to the end. He won six stages, including the last three, and finished 6 minutes 17 seconds ahead of Vingegaard, with Remco Evenepoel third on his Tour debut. It was Pogačar’s third Tour after 2020 and 2021, and he became the first rider since Marco Pantani in 1998 to win the Giro d’Italia and the Tour de France in the same year. Biniam Girmay won the green jersey, Richard Carapaz the mountains jersey and Evenepoel the white jersey.
2025: a fourth yellow jersey
The 112th edition left Lille on 5 July and finished on the Champs-Élysées on 27 July. Pogačar won stage 4 to Rouen and stage 7 to Mûr-de-Bretagne, then made the difference in the Pyrenees, at Hautacam and in the mountain time trial to Peyragudes. He won by almost four and a half minutes, his fourth Tour in six editions. Vingegaard was second again. Florian Lipowitz finished third, the first German on the Tour podium since Andreas Klöden in 2006, and also won the white jersey. Jonathan Milan won the points classification and Pogačar added the mountains classification.
2026: five Tours, three in a row
The 113th Tour started in Barcelona on 4 July and finished in Paris on 26 July. Pogačar attacked on the Col du Tourmalet on stage 6 and built his lead on stage 10 in the Massif Central, stage 14 in the Vosges and stage 19 at Alpe d’Huez. Vingegaard, his main rival, left the race after a crash on stage 15. Remco Evenepoel won at Plateau de Solaison the same day, then the time trial to Thonon-les-Bains, and finished second. Isaac del Toro, on his Tour debut, was third and won the white jersey, ahead of Paul Seixas. Pogačar won by almost six and a half minutes in the fastest Tour on record. It was his fifth title and his third in a row. Mads Pedersen won the green jersey and Richard Carapaz the mountains classification.
