Last year’s Tour concluded outside Paris for the first time since 1905 because of a scheduling conflict with the Olympics, with the final stage held in Nice. The Champs-Élysées returned this year for the conclusion of the 3,320-kilometer (2,060-mile) race.

Wout van Aert denied Tadej Pogacar a prestigious stage win, but Pogacar is still partying in Paris having retained his Tour title. That's his fourth Tour triumph overall... now let's see if he goes for the Grand Tour treble later this year. Until then, it's 'au revoir' from the Champs-Elysees.

France is calling on the European Union to pressure Israel to agree to a two-state solution with the Palestinians.
