The general classification of the Tour de France
Wout van Aert, the rolling machine
The green jersey, insatiable, played all the roles on this Tour.
On all terrains.
Super teammate, stage winner.
In an exercise he enjoys, the Belgian, a real rolling machine, enjoyed himself on the steep roads of the Lot.
The one who was awarded the title of super combative of this Tour won his 3rd stage victory (his 9th on the Tour), the 6th for Jumbo-Visma on this Tour.
Wout Van Aert will have one last opportunity to showcase himself, this Sunday on the Champs-Élysées.
Stage he won last year…
Jonas Vingegaard, sure of his strength
The yellow jersey, with a comfortable lead, did not save the last time.
Trajectories, commitment, the Dane has, without calculation, given everything.
As if his position at the top of the general classification depended on it.
And gave himself a fright when in a left turn taken too fast, too wide, he grazed the rock 3 km from the finish.
2nd in the stage, 19'' behind his team-mate Wout van Aert.
Tadej Pogacar has given everything again
Great host of this Tour, Tadej Pogacar has, once again, given everything.
Despite his disappointment and fatigue, he competed with the infernal duo Jumbo-Visma.
The leader of the UAE Team Emirates (2nd overall at 3'34'') took 3rd place in the time trial 27'' behind Wout van Aert.
Winner of 3 stage victories and once again white jersey, the Slovenian has learned a lot on this Tour.
FLOPS
Filippo Gana exceeded
Favorite of the first stage in Copenhagen, the sculptural Italian (who had finished with a deflated tire) had to settle for 4th place.
The Ineos roller was among the names that came up most often for victory on the last lap.
He had to settle for 5th place, 42'' from Wout Van Aert.

Stefan Küng, far from the mark
The Swiss, renowned for his rolling qualities, was not able to let his power and his raises speak.
The strong rider from the Groupama-FDJ formation had to settle for 11th place, 1'55'' behind Wout Van Aert.
Nairo Quintana loses a place
The Colombian was not in his favorite exercise.
He knew he would be wasting time.
And he lost.
The leader of the Arkéa-Samsic team finished 42nd, 4'8'' behind Wout Van Aert.
He lost a place in the general classification, slipped to 6th place, overtaken by the Russian Aleksandr Vlasov.
