What are the current 2024 Tour de France standings?
Two-time Tour champion Tadej Pogacar won his second consecutive stage in Saturday’s Stage 20 to once again build on his overall lead and tighten his grip on the yellow jersey with just a day left in the competition.
What’s the full route for the 2024 Tour de France?
The Tour de France begins in Florence, Italy, and finishes in Nice, France.
Because the Olympic and Paralympic Games will be taking place in Paris, this will mark the very first year that the Tour de France will not end in the “City of Light.” It’s also the first time the Tour ends with a time trial since 1989.
The Tour features four summit finishes and two time trials. The vertical gain will eclipse 52,000 meters over the 21 stages.
The 19th stage climb up Cime de la Bonette will reach an elevation of 2,802 meters (1.75 miles), the highest-altitude summit in modern Tour history. It was last on the route in 2008.

Who won the 2023 Tour de France?
Danish rider Jonas Vingegaard won the 2023 Tour de France, his second straight victory in the event. If Vingegaard wins again this year, he would be the first cyclist to win the event three straight years since Chris Froome from 2015-2017.
Relive the defining moments of the 2023 Tour de France below:
