Tour de France: Vingegaard in yellow, Pogacar in white, Philipsen in green… Here is the full list of winners

2023-07-23 22:15:42

That’s it, the Tour is over! 21 stages, 3500 kilometers from Bilbao to Paris via the 5 mountain ranges and emotions for life. Falls, struggles, Blue (a little), a duel (for a long time) and then the orgy of Pinot on Saturday on the road to the Vosges. It’s over and to immerse you in these three weeks across France, here is the complete list of winners of the Tour 2023.

General classification: Vingegaard, yellow and untouchable

Defending champion, the Dane won his second Tour de France in a row, with a wide lead (7′29) over his runner-up Tadej Pogacar. The widest since 2014. A final lead which only very badly translates the huge fight between the first two in the general classification.

In another dimension compared to the other riders, the two rivals clashed during each mountain stage, Pogacar taking the role of the offensive while Vingegaard remained in control of a yellow jersey which he seized during the 6th stage, never to let go again. It was during the time trial between Passy and Combloux (16th stage) that the leader of the Jumbo-Visma really crushed this Tour de France 2023, pushing back his runner-up to 1′38″ before taking advantage of Pogacar’s failure on the next stage.

1) Jonas Vingegaard (DAN/Jumbo-Visma)

2) Tadej Pogacar (SLO/UAE Team Emirates) at 7′29″

3) Adam Yates (GBR/UAE Team Emirates) à 10′56″

…

9) David Gaudu (FRA/Groupama-FDJ) at 23′08″

Classification by points: Philipsen, the easy Green

Winner of four of the seven stages played on a massive sprint, the Belgian logically crushed the classification of the green jersey, despite a failure on the Champs-Élysées during the final stage. Impressively easy and each time perfectly put into orbit by his lieutenant Mathieu Van der Poel, the rider from Alpecin-Deceuninck pushed back his closest competitor, the Dane Mads Pedersen (winner of the 8th stage), to more than 120 points. He thus won the points classification for the first time in his career, and succeeded his compatriot Wout Van Aert.

1) Jasper Philipsen (BEL/Alpecin-Deceuninck) : 377 points

2) Mads Pedersen (DAN/Lidl-Trek): 258 points

3) Bryan Coquard (FRA / Cofidis): 203 points

Classification of the mountain: Ciccone, the peas in extremis

Competed by Neilson Powless, wearer of the white jersey with red polka dots continuously from the 6th to the 13th stage, then Felix Gall, winner at the top of the Courchevel altiport and of course by the yellow jersey Jonas Vingegaard, the Italian got his hands on the best climber’s tunic late, at the end of the time trial (16th stage). The Lidl-Trek rider fought through the third week until he was sure to win the mountain classification during the last high altitude stage on Saturday in the Vosges. Already named best climber of the Giro in 2019, Ciccone therefore confirmed his status during this edition of the Tour de France.

1) Giulio Ciccone (ITA/Lidl-Trek) 106 points

2) Felix Gall (AUT/AG2R Citroën) : 92 points

3) Jonas Vingegaard (DAN/Jumbo-Visma) : 89 points

…

12) Thibaut Pinot (FRA/Groupama-FDJ) : 22 points

Ranking of the best young person: Pogacar, the white man who consoles (a little)

Long in the race to get his third success on the Grande Boucle, Tadej Pogacar ended up cracking in the third week and did not join Paris with the yellow jersey on his shoulders, but with the white jersey. For the fourth year (a record), the Slovenian (winner of the Tour in 2020 and 2021) has won the best young rider classification, which rewards the rider under 25 with the best overall ranking. A small consolation prize for the leader of UAE Team Emirates, who also won two stages.

1) Tadej Pogacar (SLO/UAE Team Emirates) in 82h 13′1

2) Carlos Rodriguez (ESP/Ineos Grenadiers) at 5’48″

3) Felix Gall (AUT/AG2R Citroën) at 8′40″

…

7) Mathieu Burgaudeau (FRA/TotalEnergies) at 2h13′44″
