A peloton of 155 riders took the start of stage 21 in Rambouillet. Twenty two year old Egan Bernal, the first ever Colombian winner, had his taste of Champagne at the back of the peloton in front of the cameras as per tradition. The peloton covered 34.4km in the first hour.

Tim Wellens (Lotto-Soudal) and Yoann Offredo (Wanty-Groupe Gobert) successively passed the côte de St-Rémy-lès-Chevreuse and the côte de Châteaufort in first position with the acceptance of the rest of the field. Team Ineos led the peloton as they entered Paris for the grand finale in front of the most prestigious monuments and the Champs-Elysées.

Then the action began with Omar Fraile (Astana) and a rider who raced the British pro scene in Britain for a few years, Tom Scully (EF Education First) were the first two riders to go clear off the peloton before Jan Tratnik (Bahrain-Merida) and Nils Politt (Katusha-Alpecin) caught up with the two attackers.

With 40km to go, the advantage of the leading quartet didn’t exceed 20″ as sprinters’ teams Lotto-Soudal, Deceuninck-Quick Step and Jumbo-Visma got organised early.

Defending champion Geraint Thomas (Ineos) had a flat tyre with 35km remaining and made it back to the pack quickly. Fraile, Scully, Politt and Tratnik forged on and extended their lead to 25″ with 25km to go. 15km before the end, only Scully and Tratnik were still away with Tratnik the last rider to surrender to the sprinter teams.

Meanwhile, at the back of the peloton, Tratnik’s team-mate Sonny Colbrelli was chasing to come across to the pack with the help of Vincenzo Nibali after a puncture. Michael Matthews (Sunweb) also had a mechanical but got back on with 5km to go.

Two of the Tour’s most notable riders, Daryl Impey and Julian Alaphilippe, both stage winners, respectively led the pack with 3km to go and under the flamme rouge of the last kilometre at the service of Matteo Trentin and Elia Viviani but it was eventually Edvald Boasson Hagen (Dimension Data) who launched the sprint from far out.

Niccolo Bonifazio (Total Direct Energie) found an open gap and sped up but it came down to a duel between Dylan Groenewegen and Caleb Ewan. The Dutchman on left hand side of road was pipped by the Australian on the right hand side. The last Australian to win on the Champs-Elysées was Robbie McEwen in 2002.

The last debutant to win on the Champs-Elysées was Tom Boonen on 2004 aand the last debutant to win three stages at the Tour was Peter Sagan in 2012. Egan Bernal is the youngest ever winner of the Tour de France since the inception of the yellow jersey 100 years ago.

REACTIONS
Egan Bernal: I should say thank you to all my team. Thank you G for the opportunity and all the team for the support and believing in me. Today I am the most happy guy in the world. I just won the Tour de France. I can’t believe it. It’s incredible, I don’t know what to say.  I need a couple of days to assimilate all this. It’s for my family and I just want to hug them. It’s a feeling of happiness that I don’t know how to describe it. This is the first Tour for us, Colombians. Many Colombians have tried before, we’ve had great cyclists in the past. But I’m the first one to win the Tour! Colombia deserves it.”

Geraint Thomas: “Two years ago I was here with my arm in a sling, with a broken collarbone and devastated I wasn’t able to ride my bike and two years on, I’m disappointed not to have won a second Tour! I’m proud of how I managed to get myself into good shape. It hasn’t been a smooth run into the Tour or during it really, but this team is incredible and it was a pleasure to be a part of Egan’s first of many [victories] and to be stood on the podium in second is still a big achievement.

“I’m glad to be going home and closing the front door and switching off. Emotionally, mentally and physically it’s been draining and it’s still enjoyable – it’s the pinnacle of the sport and what you dream of when you were a kid, but at the same time it’s been hard work and I’m looking forward to switching off.”

Caleb Ewan: “It was so hot today and I was suffering a lot. I thought about it to get Maxime Monfort off the front because I thought I wouldn’t be able to hang on until the end. On a few climbs, I was really struggling but eventually, I kept the good position. This morning, before the start in Nîmes, we did a recon of the final kilometre with the team, so we knew what to expect. A long home stretch is not always the most easy finish because timing as well as positioning are harder. Jasper De Buyst did a tremendous lead-out and afterwards, I was on the wheel of the other fast guys, so I decided to go early. In the end, it paid off.”

“The fact that my wife and daughter are at the race for the first time, makes it really special. It is incredibly beautiful to celebrate this victory together with them. It was difficult to keep the confidence after some second and third places. I finally got it right in stage eleven. Now, the next sprint chance immediately delivers a second victory, that is just amazing! If I am the best sprinter in this Tour? I think there are some really good sprinters here. Maybe, I proved to be the most consistent one, but in any case, today I showed to be the best.”

Matteo Trentin: “It was a fantastic three-weeks. When you come here with a GC hope and the GC hope finishes, it is unfortunate but can happen, it is sport, but straight away we went again on any single day that we could win. We were always there, always trying and four stages is not something you have everyday.”

Adam Yates: “In summary it’s been a successful Tour – four stage wins and everyday we went out there and gave it everything. Some days it worked out and when it didn’t we tried again the following day. When you give 100% you can’t be disappointed and I think we went out there and did all we could. For me personally it didn’t go exactly to plan but the guys never lost faith and when we changed focus, they were there to help me jump in the breaks and chase a stage win.”

Simon Yates: “It was a great Tour – very successful for the team of course. Four stage wins, I dont think we’ve ever had so much success at the Tour before, not since the guys had the yellow jersey before I was in the team. I am very proud to be part of that success. The boys have been really great from start to finish and we will celebrate well tonight in Paris.”

Steven Kruijswijk: the ninth Dutchman in history who finished on the overall podium in Paris. After many top five places, it also the first podium place in a grand tour for the Dutchman. “This is very special. This was my goal and when you finally succeed, you are very happy. For me, this was the best I could do. In today’s stage, it was a matter of paying attention and making it safely across the finish. When I crossed the line, I finally had that feeling of finishing third. It is an amazing feeling. So far, this is my career’s crowning achievement, but I am hungry for more in the coming years. I am very grateful to the team for the past three weeks. Everyone played an important role. Moreover, with four stage wins, it was a more than great Tour.”

Dylan Groenewegen was a bit upset by his second place: “The last kilometre was quite hectic. We were not in a perfect position. I started the sprint on the left, but Ewan came around me on the right. That’s a pity, but he was simply the strongest today. For me, it was a strange Tour with the crash in Brussels. I am happy to have won a stage. Everything extra was a bonus. It was a great Tour for us with four stage wins and Steven on the podium.”

Julian Alaphilippe: For three amazing weeks, Julian Alaphilippe created his own myth, one that will reverberate over generations, after igniting a nation’s hopes and keeping them alive, while continuously surpassing everyone’s expectations. “The race has been a marvelous experience, something truly unique. It was my dream to wear the maillot jaune, but to have it for 14 days was simply incredible. The team did a tremendous job riding for me and protecting me, while for my part I fought day after day to prolong this dream in yellow for as long as possible”, an elated Julian said on the Champs-Élysées, where he took to the podium to receive the Super Combatif award.

“The support of the public was superb, I don’t have enough words to tell you what it meant for me to have them chant my name, show their encouragement and support me and the team. I want to thank them for this! I have never imagined this, just as I have never imagined that I would one day finish fifth overall, a beautiful performance and a bonus which rounds out this unforgettable Tour de France”, said Julian, who brought three weeks of joy to his countrymen.”

Richie Porte: “It’s no secret. I didn’t come here to finish 11th on GC. I fought with everything I had, we didn’t have great luck, but we had a great team, a great atmosphere, which is good. It’s been three years since I made it to Paris, so it’s a bit of a miracle to make it here! I am a bit disappointed to be honest, but it is what it is, and we’ll be back next year!”

Emanuel Buchmann: “I need one or two weeks to realise what has happened over the last three weeks. To be one of the top 5 in the Tour de France is unbelievable. I always thought that something like this could be possible but, at the Tour de France, mistakes are not allowed. Thankfully, I made it, even when I was on the limit at the end.

This fourth place overall was the optimum; Bernal, Thomas and Kruijswijk were too strong. I need to calm down now to enjoy all these moments. I would be happy if this success motivates young adults and kids to start cycling too and join a club. Furthermore, I want to say thank you to Ralph Denk and BORA-hansgrohe. Together we worked so hard in the last couple of years. Today we can celebrate this hard work.” –

Peter Sagan: “To wear the green jersey on the podium of the Champs-Elysées is a privilege and an honour, even more so when it is for a record-breaking seventh time. I’d like to thank everybody in the team, our management, the staff, the sports directors, the riders, we all worked hard to achieve this. We had a very good Tour de France and we showed that each year we progress as a team, we get stronger.

However, nothing of this would have been possible without the support of our sponsors that believe in us and have been by our side in the most difficult moments and now in this moment of happiness and glory. I will now take a few days off and then continue to work for the upcoming goals of the final part of the season.”

Romain Bardet: “It’s a happy end and a good lesson to know that I can make it up for my failures. The polka dot jersey is the symbol of the kind of cycling I like and the Tour de France I’ve loved as a kid. I’m proud to have it on the Champs-Elysées. A bit of luck was needed and I got some in the last mountain stage. A couple of years ago, I lost the polka dot jersey towards the end, this time around it worked out well.”

Michael Matthews: “I tried to save the legs as much as possible over the past few days,” explained Matthews at the finish. “We were really motivated for today and I felt good, but unfortunately the luck was not on our side. When I saw that I had a bad mechanical I was still hoping to get back for the finale.”

“I had a fast bike change from the team and I really appreciate that. I had Nico waiting in the cars to bring me back to the bunch, before Lennard and Chad were there to bring me as close to the front of the bunch as possible. By that point I was pretty sure it was over but we fought all the way to the line; you never know what happens.”

“The team morale is still super high at the moment; we kept fighting and kept trying, and hopefully we can keep that spirit going and break the bad luck train we’re on at the moment.”
