So that’s it - the 2025 Grand Tour season is officially over.
I think it’s fair to say that this year, even with Tadej Pogačar’s absurdly dominant Tour de France performance, has been one to remember when it comes to three-week stage races for a whole host of reasons. Redemption arcs from Yates and Vingegaard, breakthrough rides from the likes of Onley and Del Toro, and of course, the large-scale protests in Spain which ultimately brought the Vuelta’s final stage to a premature halt. Yesterday, though, despite the disruption, belonged to Jonas Vingegaard and Team Visma Lease-a-Bike.
