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.

The U.K. is the latest country to say it will recognize a Palestinian state — unless Israel agrees to a ceasefire. This comes as international pressure grows for Israel to address concerns of famine in Gaza.

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

The cyclist who equalled the best ever Tour de France finish by a Scot at the weekend has been hailed as a hero in his hometown. Oscar Onley - who grew up in Kelso in the Borders - finished fourth overall in the gruelling three-week race.

The news of Pogacar’s withdrawal will make Jonas Vingegaard the overwhelming favourite for this year’s Vuelta. The Dane has never won a Grand Tour outside the Tour de France, having finished second to teammate Sepp Kuss in 2023, and showed in the final week of the Tour that he is back climbing at his best level.

(Reuters) -French cyclist Kevin Vauquelin said on Tuesday he had suffered a leg injury carrying a suitcase downstairs at home just days after finishing seventh overall in the Tour de France. The Arkea–B&B Hotels rider fractured the distal end of his fibula in what the team described as a "domestic accident".
