The final stage of France’s iconic cycling race began around 5:50 p.m. local time on the Champs-\u00c9lys\u00e9es in Paris. The start time was slightly delayed, after changes due to wildfires raging in the southwest portion of the country.<\/p>\n

The route for the Tour de France’s final stage was also shortened because security and police for the event were reassigned to assist with the fires, organizers said<\/u> on Saturday.The final stage was originally set to begin in Thoiry, about 56 kilometers to the west of Paris, and cyclists would then ride into the famed city.<\/p>\n

The final stage<\/u> of the race was won by Dutch rider Mathieu van der Poel, in a time of 1 hour, 58 minutes and 49 seconds. Poga\u010dar’s final time<\/u> for the whole tour was 73 hours 56 minutes and 26 seconds, almost six and half minutes faster than his nearest competitor, Belgium’s Remco Evenepoel.<\/p>\n

With this fifth tour victory, Poga\u010dar became the joint most successful competitor ever in the event, joining Jacques Anquetil, Eddy Merckx, Bernard Hinault, and Miguel Indur\u00e1in. Lance Armstrong previously won seven, but was stripped of his titles after it emerged that he had used performance-enhancing drugs.<\/p>\n
