The Tour de France is one of the most renowned and challenging cycling races in the world. Held annually since 1903, it spans approximately 3,500 kilometers (2,200 miles, this year 3498 kilometers) over the course of 21 stages. The race mostly takes place in France, but it often includes parts of neighboring countries like Belgium, Italy, Germany, and Spain.

It was organized L'Auto, a newspaper, to increase sales and soon evolved into one of the most prestigious events in cycling. Every summer, the race captures the world's attention with its combination of grueling climbs, strategic team dynamics, and the sheer endurance required of its participants.  In recent years, the Tour has delivered some unforgettable moments. For instance, the 2020 edition saw the unexpected triumph of Tadej Pogačar, who, at just 21 years old, became the youngest winner in over a century, shocking fans and pundits alike with his dramatic come-from-behind victory. The rivalry between Pogačar and Jonas Vingegaard has been intense, with Vingegaard clinching his second consecutive title in 2023 after a fierce battle. These events have reaffirmed the Tour's reputation as not just a race but a stage for legendary feats and rivalries that captivate sports enthusiasts around the globe.
