Tour de France records and statistics - wikipedia Tour de France records and statistics See also : Yellow jersey statistics One rider has been King of the Mountains, won the combination classification, combativity award, the points competition, and the Tour in the same year - Eddy Merckx in 1969, which was also the first year he participated. Twice the Tour was won by a racer who never wore the yellow jersey until the race was over. In 1947, Jean Robic overturned a three - minute deficit on a 257 km final stage into Paris. In 1968, Jan Janssen of the Netherlands secured his win in the individual time trial on the last day. The Tour has been won three times by a racer who led the general classification on the first stage and held the lead all the way to Paris. Maurice Garin did it during the Tour 's very first edition, 1903 ; he repeated the feat the next year, but the results were nullified as a response to widespread cheating. Ottavio Bottechia completed a GC start - to - finish sweep in 1924. In 1928, Nicolas Frantz also led the GC for the entire race, and the final podium was made up of three riders from his Alcyon -- Dunlop team. While no one has accomplished this since 1928, there have been four tours in which a racer has taken over the GC lead on the second stage and held the lead all the way to Paris. Laurent Fignon, winner in 1983, was the last rider to win the race in his first appearance. René Pottier, Roger Lapébie, Sylvère Maes, Fausto Coppi and Bradley Wiggins all won the Tour de France the last time they appeared in the race.

In light of George Hincapie 's suspension for use of performance - enhancing drugs, before which he held the mark for most consecutive finishes with sixteen, having completed all but his very first, Joop Zoetemelk holds the record for the most finishes, having completed all 16 of the Tours that he started.

This led to large gaps between the winner and the number two. Since the cyclists now tend to stay together in a peloton, the margins of the winner have become smaller, as the difference usually originates from time trials, breakaways or on mountain top finishes, or from being left behind the peloton. In the table below, the eight smallest margins between the winner and the second placed cyclists at the end of the Tour are given. The largest margin, by comparison, remains that of the first Tour in 1903 : 2h 49m 45s between Maurice Garin and Lucien Pothier. The nine smallest margins between first and second placed riders are as follows : Winning margin Year Opponents 8 '' 1989 Greg LeMond -- Laurent Fignon 23 '' 2007 Alberto Contador -- Cadel Evans 32 '' 2006 Óscar Pereiro -- Andreas Klöden 38 '' 1968 Jan Janssen -- Herman Van Springel 40 '' Stephen Roche -- Pedro Delgado 48 '' 1977 Bernard Thévenet -- Hennie Kuiper 54 '' 2017 Chris Froome -- Rigoberto Urán 55 '' 1964 Jacques Anquetil -- Raymond Poulidor 58 '' 2008 Carlos Sastre -- Cadel Evans Successful breakaways The longest successful post-war breakaway by a single rider was by Albert Bourlon in the 1947 Tour de France. In the stage Carcassone - Luchon, he stayed away for 253 kilometres ( 157 mi ). It was one of seven breakaways longer than 200 km, the last being Thierry Marie 's 234 km escape in 1991. Bourlon finished 16 m 30s ahead. This is one of the biggest time gaps but not the greatest. That record belongs to José - Luis Viejo, who beat the peloton by 22 mins 50 secs in the 1976 stage Montgenèvre - Manosque. He was the fourth and most recent rider to win a stage by more than 20 minutes. Overall speed Overall Speed of the Tour de France The 2005 edition was the fastest Tour de France in history. Lance Armstrong rode 3,592.5 km in 86h 15 ' 02 ``, thus realising an overall speed of 41.654 km / h, though his win was later annulled. The slowest Tour de France was the edition of 1919, when Firmin Lambot 's average speed was 24.056 km / h. Stage speeds The fastest massed - start stage was in 1999 from Laval to Blois ( 194.5 km ), won by Mario Cipollini at 50.4 km / h ( 31.32 mph ). The fastest time - trial is Rohan Dennis ' stage 1 of the 2015 Tour de France in Utrecht, won at an average of 55.446 km / h ( 34.5 mph ). The fastest stage win was by the 2013 Orica GreenEDGE team in a team time - trial. It completed the 25 km time - trial at 57.7 km / h ( 35.85 mph ). The fastest climb of Alpe d'Huez was by Marco Pantani in 1997 Tour de France at 23.1 km / h ( 14.35 mph ). Stage wins per rider 33 riders have won 10 or more stages ( including half - stages, excluding Team Time Trials ). Riders who are still active are indicated in bold.
