The most important cycling event in the world, the Tour de France 2024, will begin on Saturday, June 29.
The current Danish champion Jonas Vingegaard and Slovenian rider Tadej Pogačar are the center of attention in their clash. With a goal of winning a third Tour de France, the two have combined to win the last four titles.
Following his decisive triumph in the Giro D’Italia, Pogačar enters the competition as the favorite to build on his two victories from 2020 and 2021. With the Tour de France concluding just days before the Olympic Games in Paris 2024, the bronze medalist from Tokyo 2020 may have an amazing few weeks.
In the meantime, Vingegaard has recovered from an injury at the last minute to be ready for the Tour, where he hopes to become the first rider from Scandinavia and the sixth rider overall to win three straight yellow jerseys.
The race this year is special for several reasons. Commencing in Italy, this edition will commemorate a century since Ottavio Botteicher emerged as the country’s first Italian Tour de France victor.
