Tour de France 2026: Our GC form guide

The 2026 Tour de France is underway, featuring a highly competitive general classification battle over three weeks across Spain and France. Defending champion Tadej Pogačar, 27, enters the race with four Tour victories and is chasing a record-equalling fifth title, having dominated the 2026 season with wins at Strade Bianche, Milan-San Remo, Tour of Flanders, Liège-Bastogne-Liège, Tour de Romandie, and Tour de Suisse. His chief rival Jonas Vingegaard joins young contenders Isaac del Toro and Paul Seixas in what is described as one of the most talent-heavy top-ten battles the race has seen in years.
