PARIS: After winning seven of eight titles from 2012-2019, Ineos-Grenadiers have been kicked out of contention since Tadej Pogacar and Jonas Vingegaard seized power in brutal fashion and there is little chance that the British outfit will regain their crown in the near future.
PARIS (AP) — Jonas Vingegaard of Denmark won his first Tour de France title on Sunday after coming out on top in a thrilling three-week duel with defending champion Tadej Pogacar.
A wonderful edition of the Tour de France came to a close as the sun set over Paris with outgoing champion Tadej Pogacar (UAE Team Emirates) putting in a spirited attack on the final lap, Jumbo-Visma crossing the line to celebrate Jonas Vingegaard’s overall win, and Jasper Philipsen (Alpecin-Deceuninck) storming the final sprint by a number of bike lengths. Denmark’s Vingegaard, 25, lapped up the applause as he came home arm-in-arm with his team-mates – including the green jersey Wout van Aert, who opted not to contest the final sprint that he won 12 months ago.

Geraint Thomas, the 2018 champion, was third.
ROCAMADOUR, France: Jonas Vingegaard survived the “heart attack” of a near fall on Saturday’s individual time-trial to virtually wrap up the Tour de France and now only needs to cross the Champs-Elysees finish line in Paris on Sunday to guarantee the champion’s yellow jersey. Team Jumbo’s Vingegaard tops the overall standings 3min 34sec ahead of two-time defending champion Tadej Pogacar, while Geraint Thomas of Ineos Grenadiers, the 2018 winner, stands third at 8min 13sec. Frenchman David Gaudu of FDJ and Aleksandr Vlasov of Bora round out the top five ahead of Sunday’s stage to Paris which is traditionally a ceremonial run.
Adam Blythe says that Jumbo-Visma have torn up the rulebook with a performance of pure dominance at the Tour de France, and reserved special praise for their Belgian talisman Wout van Aert. The Dutch team could finish the Tour de France with the yellow, green and polka dot jerseys, and – depending on the victor on Stage 21 — seven stage wins in an almost unprecedented show of excellence at the French Grand Tour. Ad/> Jumbo-Visma secured a one-two on the Stage 20 time trial after Vingegaard survived a scare late on to finish second behind the irrepressible Van Aert.
Jonas Vingegaard (Jumbo-Visma) has heaped praise on his team-mates after he edged closer to a maiden Tour de France win. The Dane survived a late scare on the last descent of the decisive final time trial to Rocamadour — won by his Jumbo-Visma team-mate Wout van Aert — to strengthen his already vice-like grip on the yellow jersey. Ad/> If he navigates Stage 21 without accident or incident, the 25-year-old will win the 109th running of the Tour de France.
