00:00A tearful Mark Cavendish crosses the line, 35 stage wins in the Tour.
00:13The end of a sporting career in the Tour de France.
00:18An emotional Mark Cavendish in tears at the finish of his final road stage of the Tour.
00:26The stages of the Tour, I've raced 200 maybe. I've won 35 of them but probably half of them
00:34have been in a group out the back just trying to get through so I can compete the next day.
00:41He says thank you to Case Bowl, to Ballerini.
00:45His team have done an incredible job to get him through the mountains.
00:51Winning is winning, you try that, that's what you do. If you're good at something you win,
00:54but it's the determination not to give up when things are hard on your head and on your body.
01:01They're the important things, those are the things that make you better as a person you know
01:04and that's what the Tour de France has taught me more than anything.
01:07Mark Cavendish's realisation that his career in the Tour de France has come to an end.
01:25The 21st and final stage of this Tour de France. An individual time trial between Monaco and Nice
01:31featuring the climbs of La Turbie and the Col d'Aize before a long downhill sweep to the finish line.
01:42After a gruelling race, who would still have the legs to go for glory today?
01:45Well Lenny Martinez set the early benchmark covering the course in 48 minutes and 24 seconds.
01:51Impressive stuff from the 21-year-old Frenchman,
01:54the next 50 riders out would fail to better his time.
02:02Martinez was finally dislodged over an hour later by Harold Tejada,
02:06the Colombian climber storming around the course in 48 minutes and 14 seconds.
02:129.9 seconds faster, that's an impressive time trial particularly over the last bit
02:19and Martinez now has to say goodbye.
02:23Others clearly weren't going all in, Wout van Aert for example was almost five minutes down
02:28at the top of the Col d'Aize. We would have to wait for the favourites to shake things up.
02:35The rivalry between you and Jonas Vingegaard has already become legendary in the Tour.
02:40Attack of Hane Begaccia, here he goes now, this is the moment, Vingegaard reacts straight away.
02:48I appreciate that rivalry because I respect him a lot.
02:53I'm better than I have expected myself.
02:56Begaccia starts the assault to try and take the yellow jersey for good.
03:00I wanted to hit hard today.
03:04I will just give the maximum in terms of GC.
03:06Remco Ovenepoel wins his first ever stage of the Tour de France.
03:10I will of course do my best to try to follow today.
03:14Unfortunately Jonas decided to not ride with us.
03:16He's saying absolutely no way I'm working with you two.
03:19I wouldn't say lack of balls, I would just say riding smart.
03:27Vingegaard wants to have the mental blow of beating Begaccia to the line.
03:31Now we can all say that it's a fair fight, that he's in top shape.
03:36Hane Begaccia, he has dealt a hammer blow to the hopes of Vingegaard.
03:42When it was steep, I was catching back sometimes.
03:44So I think he gained the most of the time when it was more flat because he has his total power.
03:50So in some kind of way it also gives confidence for tomorrow that that's a different climb.
03:57I don't see why today would be more suited for him compared to yesterday.
04:01Tadej Begaccia, 14th stage win in his career.
04:05I don't know even myself anymore why I tried today.
04:09I took two seconds ahead of Jonas today and I'm happy with that.
04:14I still think there's a chance, yes.
04:16Of course I have to fight all the way, but I will also fight everything I can and I never give up.
04:23Every opportunity that somebody of the GC wants to take, that he can take, he should take.
04:28Four stage wins in the Tour de France and a total obliteration.
04:34Hey, I'm proud of you.
04:36You give everything, that's what matters.
04:39Absolutely.
04:43I don't think he was better than on Plateau du Bay, but I was just not as good.
04:50It's pure power.
04:52It's Tadej Begaccia.
04:53It's win number five in this year's Tour de France.
04:57If you told me this before the Tour, I would not believe it.
05:03It's just out of this world, actually.
05:09All of the riders in the Tour are now either finished or out on the course.
05:28The yellow jersey has started.
05:38The best time for Jonas Ingeborg is 26 seconds better than Evenepoel.
05:47The best time for Tadej Begaccia is 24 seconds better than Jonas Ingeborg.
05:54It's been a display of sheer power on this course.
06:09He's even got time to come around the corner and freewheel.
06:14Tadej Begaccia, total class, total dominance, six stage wins, three times Tour de France winner.
06:24I'm out of the world, so I'm super happy to win here and incredible.
06:42This year, Tour de France was just amazing.
06:45I was enjoying from day one until today.
06:50Van Der Poel looks really good in the World Championship jersey,
06:52but I want to take it from him this year.
06:55But we will see.
07:03Begaccia rounding things out in style with another crushing victory,
07:07his sixth of a race that he has utterly dominated.
07:12The Slovenian becomes the first rider to complete the Tour Giro double since 98.
07:16His final margin of victory, six minutes.
07:1917 seconds.
07:22Biniam Gemay made history at this tour,
07:24becoming the first rider from Eritrea to win a stage, three in total,
07:28and to conquer the green jersey.
07:30Similarly, Richard Carapaz is the first man from Ecuador to win the mountains classification.
07:35He was also named the race's most aggressive rider.
07:40Evenepoel finishes his first tour as the best young rider
07:43with a stage victory and a place on the overall podium.
07:47No surprise to see UAE finishes the best team
07:49with three riders inside the top six overall.
07:56I'm finished. I cannot say no more.
08:00So, yeah, let's enjoy this moment and thank you, everybody.
08:05After two years of hurt, Begaccia is back on top.
08:08Thank you all for joining us from Florence to Nice,
08:11and we'll see you again in 2025.
