Tour de France Wrap Up: Champion Crowned and 2027 Outright Odds

Our Tour de France wrap starts with the only story that really matters this year: Tadej Pogacar has won his fifth Tour title, equalling the all-time record and confirming his place among the sport's true greats. But there's plenty more to cover from three weeks of racing, and a genuinely interesting question already forming about what 2027 could bring. Here's the full result, every jersey winner, and an honest early look at next year's outright market.

Champion Crowned

Tadej Pogacar's fifth Tour de France title puts him alongside Eddy Merckx, Bernard Hinault, Miguel Indurain and Jacques Anquetil as the joint most successful riders in the race's history. He was never outside the top four on general classification at any point this year, won five individual stages, and the 2026 edition itself set a record for the fastest average speed ever recorded at the Tour de France.

The final stage into Paris belonged to someone else, though. Mathieu van der Poel won a thrilling sprint finish on the Champs-Elysees and Montmartre circuit, having ridden much of the finale alongside Pogacar himself before finding the decisive kick in the closing metres.

Final General Classification

Every Jersey Winner

It was also a genuinely rare Tour for French cycling: this year marked only the third time in the race's history that a French rider failed to win a single stage.

What Comes Next: An Honest Look at 2027

It's worth being upfront here: formal outright markets for the 2027 Tour de France are still incredibly early, and firm odds typically take shape closer to the race itself rather than immediately after the previous edition finishes. That said, the shape of next year's conversation is already starting to form.

• Tadej Pogacar: The obvious starting point for any 2027 discussion. A sixth title would make him the outright most successful rider in Tour de France history, surpassing the four-way tie he's just joined.
• Remco Evenepoel: This year's runner-up finish strengthens his case as the most realistic alternative for the yellow jersey, even if the gap to Pogacar remains substantial.
• Isaac del Toro: A third-place finish and the white jersey suggest genuine GC potential for the future, particularly if UAE Team Emirates-XRG gives him more freedom to ride for himself.
• Jonas Vingegaard: Missed the second half of this year's race entirely after a Stage 15 crash. His return to full fitness and form will be one of the most closely watched storylines heading into 2027.

With the Tour now finished, it's a good moment to reflect on how you approached betting across the three weeks of racing, win or lose.

Sportsbet.io offers deposit limits, time-out tools, and self-exclusion options if you ever want extra control over your betting.
