But just to be clear, the Slovenian superstar has not clinched his fourth Tour de France win just yet. He basically just has to stay upright as the final day of the Tour is a processional stage, where traditionally the GC leader is not challenged.

The roads were dangerously slippery after heavy rain. A fourth Tour de France title was all but won anyway, so finishing safely in the pack would do fine for Tadej Pogačar. Especially considering Sunday's final stage had already been neutralized for safety reasons and he just had to complete the race.
