Jonas Vingegaard and Tadej Pogacar's Tour de France duels will become one of sport's great rivalries for the ages.
As the Dane denied Pogacar a hat-trick of Yellow Jerseys and rode into the Champs Elysees sunset in triumph, it brought the curtain down on the equivalent of Formula One dukes Ayrton Senna and Alain Prost settling their feud on a bike.
After finishing runner-up 12 months ago, Vingegaard's maiden Grand Tour win established his battle with the Slovenian as cycling's headline act, while Jasper Philipsen won the final stage. The Dane beat Pogacar by two minutes 43 seconds in the general classification and even had time for a glass of champagne on the final stage.
