Tadej Pogacar secured his fourth overall victory in the Tour de France after an epic final stage, during which he aimed to claim a prestigious win. However, the 26-year-old Slovenian was beaten by a stronger competitor. Wout van Aert won the stage on the Champs-Élysées after outperforming Pogacar on the third and final climb of Montmartre Hill.
