We’ve got you covered with this complete list of every rider who has ever won an overall Tour de France title.
To learn more about the stories behind these athletes and their victories, Bill and Carol McGann’s two-volume The Story of the Tour de France and Les Woodland’s The Unknown Tour de Franc e are two of the best English-language resources out there.
Maurice Garin
Country: France Team: La Française Year(s): 1903
A chimney sweep-turned-champion, Garin led the inaugural Tour de France from start to finish, winning by almost three hours over the second-place rider. He earned the equivalent of about $40,000 for his efforts, money he later used to buy his own gas station.
Henri Cornet
Country: France Team: Conte Year(s): 1904
Cornet was declared the winner of the 1904 Tour after the first four finishers (including Garin) were disqualified for various forms of cheating. Only 19 at the time, Cornet remains the youngest winner in Tour history.
Louis Trousselier
Country: France Team: Peugeot–Wolber Year(s): 1905
Trousselier had to go on leave from the French army to compete in the 1905 Tour, so he made sure he invested his time wisely, winning three stages on his way to the overall victory. The night before winning the final stage, “Trou-Trou” spent all night drinking and gambling, losing the money he was set to win. He returned to the army the day after being crowned champion.
René Pottier
Country: France Team: Peugeot–Wolber Year(s): 1906
One year after becoming the first man to abandon the Tour while leading it, Pottier got his revenge by winning five stages and the overall title. Sadly, he hanged himself in his team clubhouse the following January after learning that his wife had had an affair while he competed in the race.
Lucien Petit-Breton
Country: France Team: Peugeot–Wolber Year(s): 1907, 1908
The Tour’s first two-time winner, Petit-Breton’s name is actually Lucien Mazan. Trying to keep his occupation a secret from his father—who didn’t want him to become a cyclist—Mazan raced under a pseudonym. In earning the second of his two Tour victories, he won five stages and never finished outside the top four. He was killed while serving as a driver for the French army in World War I.
François Faber
Country: Luxembourg Team: Alcyon–Dunlop Year(s): 1909
The first foreigner to win the Tour de France, Faber was incredibly large by contemporary standards. Nicknamed the “Giant of Colombe” after the Parisian suburb in which he lived, Faber measured six feet tall and weighed more than 200 pounds. He was shot in the back and killed while trying to carry a wounded comrade across no-man’s-land during a battle in WWI.
Octave Lapize
Country: France Team: Alcyon–Dunlop Year(s): 1910
To win his only Tour de France, Lapize had to overcome both his teammate Faber, the defending champion, and the Tour’s first visit to the Pyrenees. Luckily, Lapize was a much better climber than Faber, so the high mountains played to his strengths. He is perhaps most famous for shouting, “You are assassins!” at Tour organizers while climbing the Tourmalet. While serving as a fighter pilot in WWI, he was shot down and killed over Verdun.
Gustave Garrigou
Country: France Team: Alcyon–Dunlop Year(s): 1911
Despite complaints from racers, Tour organizers considered the Pyreneean stages such a success that they added the Alps in 1911. Faber again lost to a teammate, the climber Garrigou, who needed a bodyguard and disguise to finish the race after accusations that he poisoned a fellow competitor. He was later found innocent.
Odile Defraye
Country: Belgium Team: Alcyon–Dunlop Year(s): 1912
The first Belgian to win the Tour de France, Defraye rode the Tour six times and only finished once (in the same year that he won).
Philippe Thys
Country: Belgium Teams: Peugeot–Wolber, La Sportive Year(s): 1913, 1914, 1920
The Tour’s first three-time winner, Thys was the last rider to win before the start of WWI, and one of only a few prior champions to survive the conflict and continue his career.
Firmin Lambot
Country: Belgium Teams: La Sportive, Peugeot-Wolber Year(s): 1919, 1922
When the Tour started again after the war, Lambot continued Belgium’s run of success, taking the lead just two stages from the finish after Eugène Christophe—for the second time in his career—had his Tour ruined by a broken fork. Lambot won his second title at age 36, making him the oldest winner to date.
Léon Scieur
Country: Belgium Team: La Sportive Year(s): 1921
Discovered by Lambot, who hailed from the same town in Belgium, Scieur was nicknamed “the Locomotive” in the press for the way he relentlessly consolidated his lead. His wheel broke on the penultimate day and he carried it more than 300K on his back to show officials that he was justified in taking a replacement (rules at the time limited outside support for riders).
Henri Pélissier
Country: France Team: Automoto–Hutchinson Year(s): 1923
The oldest of three brothers, all of whom were cyclists, Pélissier finished only two of the eight Tours he started, placing second in 1914 and finally winning in 1923. Talented but ill-tempered, he dropped out mostly by choice. His most famous DNF came in 1920, when rather than accept a two-minute penalty for throwing away a flat tire, he abandoned the race in protest.
Ottavio Bottecchia
Country: Italy Team: Automoto Year(s): 1924, 1925
In 1924, Bottecchia became Italy’s first Tour de France champion and the first rider to wear the yellow jersey from start to finish. His initial win was made easier thanks to the departure of the Pélissier brothers on Stage 3. Discovered to be wearing two jerseys at a time, then a violation of the rules, Henri, his brother, and another teammate abandoned—you guessed it—in protest.
Lucien Buysse
Country: Belgium Team: Automoto–Hutchinson Year(s): 1926
Buysse rode selflessly for Bottecchia in 1925 and was rewarded with a chance to win the Tour for himself in 1926. Tragically, the Belgian received news that his daughter had died early in the race, but his family convinced him to carry on to victory.
Nicolas Frantz
Country: Luxembourg Team: Alcyon–Dunlop Year(s): 1927, 1928
Fourth in 1925 and second in 1926, Frantz set the foundation for his first Tour victory by winning Stage 11, a mountainous day that tackled the Pyrenean “Circle of Death,” a route with four challenging climbs including the Col d’Aubisque and Col du Tourmalet. He led the 1928 Tour from start to finish, becoming only the fifth rider (at the time) to win the overall twice.
Maurice De Waele
Country: Belgium Team: Alcyon–Dunlop Year(s): 1929
Second in 1927 and third in 1928, De Waele overcame several flat tires—riders were then required to change their own flats—and illness to win in 1929. He wasn’t a popular champion, which caused organizer Henri Desgrange to remark, “A corpse has won my race!”
André Leducq
Country: France Teams: Alcyon–Dunlop, France Year(s): 1930, 1932
The year 1930 brought a change to the Tour: National and regional teams, instead of sponsored trade teams, would now compete. This shifted the power back to France, with Leducq winning two of the decade’s first five Tours (all of which went to the French).
Antonin Magne
Country: France Team: France Year(s): 1931, 1934
Third behind Leducq in 1930, Magne took advantage of new three-minute time bonuses given to stage winners—as well as a mysterious letter tipping him off to the tactics of a competitor—to win in 1931, his first of two victories.
Georges Speicher
Country: France Team: France Year(s): 1933
Historians consider the French team at the 1933 Tour to be one of the strongest collections of pre-war riders ever assembled. Speicher was joined on the start line by former winners Leducq and Magne, as well as future winner Roger Lapébie.
Since getting hooked on pro cycling while watching Lance Armstrong win the 1993 U.S. Pro Championship in Philadelphia, longtime Bicycling contributor Whit Yost has raced on Belgian cobbles, helped build a European pro team, and piloted that team from Malaysia to Mont Ventoux as an assistant director sportif. These days, he lives with his wife and son in Pennsylvania, spending his days serving as an assistant middle school principal and his nights playing Dungeons & Dragons.

Tour de France winners: The full history
Only one rider can win the Tour de France each year, making it one of the most select groups in cycling. Ahead of the 2023 edition, we take a look at some of the youngest, oldest and most successful winners
The 2023 Tour de France will be the 110th edition of the race. With so much history, the race has helped some of the world’s best riders to transition from talented contender to a Grand Tour winner.
Nowadays, each of the 23 teams that will take to the Tour de France start line are allowed to bring eight riders, meaning 184 riders will begin in Bilbao for the Grand Départ, but only one rider will arrive in Paris wearing the distinguished yellow jersey.
We take a look back at some of the former Tour de France winners and those who set benchmarks in the race’s history.
Most Tour de France wins

There are four riders that share the crown of most Tour de France titles. Jacques Anquetil, Eddy Merckx, Bernard Hinault and Miguel Indurain all won the Tour de France on five occasions.
Anquetil won his first title in 1957 and had won his fifth by 1964, whereas Merckx won four in a row between 1969 and 1972, before adding his fifth title in ‘74. Hinault is the most recent French winner of the Tour de France, and he won his fifth yellow jersey in 1985. France won nine of the eleven editions of the Tour de France between 1975 and 1985, but have since gone over 35 years without seeing a yellow jersey.
Miguel Indurain is the only rider to have won the Tour de France for five consecutive seasons, a feat he achieved between 1991 and 1995. Chris Froome is the only active rider who could challenge for five titles as he currently have four Tour titles to his name. However, he isn't in this year's edition.
Lance Armstrong had held the record with seven Tour de France titles between 1999 and 2005, but he was stripped of all accolades over this period after he was found guilty of doping in 2012.
- 5 wins - Jacques Anquetil (1957 - 1964), Eddy Merckx (1969 - 1974), Bernard Hinault (1978 - 1985) and Miguel Indurain (1991 - 1995)
- 4 wins - Chris Froome (2013 - 2017)
- 3 wins - Philippe Thys (1913 - 1920), Louison Bobet (1953 - 55), Greg LeMond (1986 - 1990)
Youngest Tour de France winners

One of the recent trends that can be observed in professional cycling is the increased level of opportunity and confidence given to young riders. This means that some of the youngest Tour de France champions in history have won the race in the previous couple of years. Egan Bernal became the third youngest rider to win the Tour de France in 2019 — he was aged just 22 years old and 196 days.
Tadej Pogačar became the second only rider to win the Tour de France aged under 22 — he was crowned champion just one day prior to his 22nd birthday.
However, Henri Cornet remains the youngest rider to win the Tour de France. He won the yellow jersey in 1904 by a margin of more than two hours, which was just the second edition of the race. Originally, Cornet was fifth to finish, but the race was riddled with various scandals. After numerous disqualifications, Cornet was handed victory.
- 1904 - Henri Cornet, 19 years and 352 days
- 2020 - Tadej Pogačar, 21 years and 365 days
- 1909 - François Faber, 22 years and 187 days
- 2019 - Egan Bernal, 22 years and 196 days
- 1910 - Octave Lapize, 22 years and 280 days
Oldest Tour de France winners

Some of the oldest Tour de France victors came in the race's early years too. Firmin Lambot is the only rider to win the Tour de France aged over 35 years old. The Belgian rider won his second Tour de France title at 36 years old and 130 days in his eighth Tour de France start.
The following year, Henri Pélissier won the Tour at the age of 34 years and 180 days. He remains the second oldest rider to win the Tour. The oldest rider to triumph at the Tour de France in the modern-day is Cadel Evans, who won in 2011 at the age of 34 years and 160 days, making him the third oldest rider to win the maillot jaune.
- 1922 - Firmin Lambot, 36 years and 130 days
- 1923 - Henri Pélissier, 34 years and 180 days
- 2011 - Cadel Evans, 34 years and 160 days
- 1948 - Gino Bartali, 34 years and 8 days
- 1910 - Lucien Buysse, 33 years and 309 days

Every Tour de France Winner Since 1903
So, you are wondering who every Tour de France winner since the start of the iconic race back in 1903 is? Let's dive in to it!
Although it may not rank amongst the most popular sports in America, the Tour de France remains one of the most historic and anticipated sporting events in the world. It's truly an exhibition of how far the human body can be pushed.
Related : Making Sense of the Tour de France
Since its inception in 1903, the best cyclist and sports scientists in the world take their talent to the beautiful back country of France in an attempt to claim the title of Tour de France champion.
Here is a list of every Tour de France winner:
2022: Jonas Vingegaard
- Country : Denmark
- Team: Jumbo-Visma
The 2022 Tour de France will be one remembered for decades to come. Slovenian cyclist Tadej Pogačar was on the cusp of winning his third straight Tour before Jonas Vingegaard had something to say about it. The race came down to the wire when Pogačar and Vingegaard were neck-and-neck on the Col de Spandelles, even causing a crash that left Pogačar with scratches to his leg. Vingegaard finished in 79 hours, 33 minutes, and 20 seconds, setting a record for fastest finish in Tour history. Without a doubt, Vingegaard will be coming back to defend his title this upcoming Tour de France.
2021: Tadej Pogačar
- Country: Slovenia
- Team: UAE Team Emirates
After a dominating 2020 Tour de France, all eyes were on the twenty-two-year-old cyclist to remain atop the racing mountain. He did that and more in dominating fashion, becoming the youngest racer to ever win two Tour de France titles. Not only did Pogačar take home the yellow shirt, he claimed a victory in the Mountains and Youth classifications.
Pogačar started to build a lead after winning the time trail on stage 5, and gained three and a half minutes on the second place racer by the 8th stage. By the final race day, Pogačar was racing defensively with a fierce lead and an almost guaranteed win.
2020: Tadej Pogačar
Country: Slovenia Team: UAE Team Emirates
With the looming Covid-19 pandemic and the world's sporting events being shutdown, it looked as though the 2020 Tour de France wouldn't happen. After a short postponement, the Tour was back in action and the cycling world was introduced to its newest legend.
Tadej Pogačar went into the 2020 Tour with a modest shot at winning, but almost nobody had him as a general favorite to win. He proved everyone wrong and became the first Slovenian born cyclist to win the Tour. Pogačar also claimed wins in the Mountains and Youth classifications, cementing himself as the best all-around cyclist in the world as of now.
2019: Egan Bernal
- Country: Colombia
- Team: Ineos
The 2019 Tour de France gave us another cyclist claiming their home countries first title after Egan Bernal won in dominating fashion. Team Ineos had such a dominant performance that their racers finished in first and second place, claiming them the team championship as well. Bernal finished the Tour in eighty-two hours and fifty-seven minutes, a whole minute and eleven seconds above second.
2018: Geraint Thomas
- Country: Great Britain
Not only was 2018 an incredibly dominant year for Geraint Thomas, but it was just as great for racing team Sky. The 2018 Tour marked the fourth straight competition that saw a racer from team Sky claim the yellow shirt. Although Thomas didn't dominate the race at every stage, he carefully chose his moments to make pushes and gain time, eventually putting him in first. Thomas won no other classifications this year, but that doesn't matter when you're wearing the yellow shirt.

Lance Armstrong wins seventh Tour de France
On July 24, 2005, American cyclist Lance Armstrong wins a record-setting seventh consecutive Tour de France and retires from the sport. After Armstrong survived testicular cancer, his rise to cycling greatness inspired cancer patients and fans around the world and significantly boosted his sport’s popularity in the United States. However, in 2012, in a dramatic fall from grace, the onetime global cycling icon was stripped of his seven Tour titles after being charged with the systematic use of performance-enhancing drugs.
Born on September 18, 1971, in Plano, Texas , Armstrong started his sports career as a triathlete, competing professionally by the time he was 16. Biking proved to be his strongest event, and at age 17 he was invited to train with the U.S. Olympic cycling developmental team in Colorado . He won the U.S. amateur cycling championship two years later, in 1991, then finished 14th in the road race competition at the 1992 Olympics in Barcelona, Spain. He turned pro later that year but finished last in the Classico San Sebastian, his first race as a professional. In 1993 he bounced back to win 10 titles, including his first major race, the World Road Championships. That same year, he also competed in his first Tour de France, the grueling three-week race that attracts the world’s top cyclists, and won the eighth stage. In 1995 he again won a stage of the Tour de France, as well as the Tour DuPont, a major U.S. cycling event.
Armstrong began 1996 as the number-one-ranked cyclist in the world, but he chose not to race the Tour de France and performed poorly at that year’s Olympics. After experiencing intense pain during a training ride, he was diagnosed in October 1996 with Stage 3 testicular cancer, which had spread to his lungs and brain. He underwent surgery and chemotherapy, then began training again in early 1997. Later that year, he signed with the U.S. Postal Service team. After he quit in the middle of one of his first races back, many thought his career was over. However, after taking some time off from competition, Armstrong came back to finish in the top five at both the Tour of Spain and the World Championships in 1998.
In 1999, to the amazement of the cycling community, Armstrong won his first-ever Tour de France and went on to win the race for the next six consecutive years. In addition to his seven overall wins (a record for both total and consecutive wins), he won 22 individual stages and 11 individual time trials, and led his team to victories in three team time trials between 1999 and 2005. After retiring in 2005, Armstrong made a comeback to pro cycling in 2009, finishing third in that year’s Tour and 23rd in the 2010 Tour. He retired for good from the sport in 2011 at age 39.
Over the years, Armstrong’s intense training regimen and his famed dominance in the difficult and treacherous mountain stages of the Tour de France inspired awe among both fans and opponents. His cycling cadence, which averaged 95 to 100 rotations per minute (rpm) but reached as high as 120 rpm, was considered remarkable, particularly during climbs. In addition to being an exceptionally talented climber, Armstrong performed extremely well in time trials.
Throughout his career, Armstrong, like many other top cyclists of his era, was dogged by accusations of performance-boosting drug use, but he repeatedly and vigorously denied all allegations against him and claimed to have passed hundreds of drug tests. In June 2012 the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency (USADA), following a two-year investigation, charged the cycling superstar with engaging in doping violations from at least August 1998, and with participating in a conspiracy to cover up his misconduct. After losing a federal appeal to have the USADA charges against him dropped, Armstrong, while continuing to maintain he had done nothing wrong, announced on August 23 that he would stop fighting the charges. The next day, USADA banned Armstrong for life from competitive cycling and disqualified all his competitive results from August 1, 1998, through the present.
On October 10, 2012, USADA released hundreds of pages of evidence, including sworn testimony from 11 of Armstrong’s former teammates, that the agency said demonstrated Armstrong and the U.S. Postal Service team had been involved in the most sophisticated and successful doping program in the history of cycling. A week after the USADA report was made public, Armstrong stepped down as chairman of his Livestrong cancer awareness foundation, and also was fired from many of his endorsement deals. On October 22, Union Cycliste Internationale, the cycling’s world governing body, announced that it accepted the findings of the USADA investigation and officially was erasing Armstrong’s name from the Tour de France record books and upholding his lifetime ban from the sport.
After years of denials, Armstrong finally admitted publicly, in a televised interview with Oprah Winfrey that aired on January 17, 2013, he had doped for much of his cycling career, beginning in the mid-1990s through his Tour de France victory in 2005. He admitted to using a performance-enhancing drug regimen that included testosterone, human growth hormone, the blood booster EPO and cortisone.

L'Auto was not the success its backers wanted.
