The man in yellow: Youngest two time Tour de France winner
The Tour de France winner is proudly repping the leader’s yellow jersey in Paris today
Tadej Pogačar of Slovenia has now claimed two Tour de France victories.
It was a gruelling three-week ride, but Pogačar made it seem easy.
The UAE Team Emirates leader successfully defended his huge lead of 5 minutes, 20 seconds.
He won over the final stage to the Champs-Élysées by beating Jonas Vingegaard, who came second. Richard Carapaz finished third overall, 7:03 off the pace.
“I’m gonna speak from the heart,” said Pogačar on the final podium.
“Thank you to everybody who came along during the three weeks. It was amazing to be riding along the route.”
Last year, the 22 year old became the youngest winner of the Tour in 116 years.
He is now the youngest double winner of the race.
Pogacar also won the awards for best rider under-25 and the king of the mountains polka-dot jersey, a triple he also achieved on his debut last year.
Australia’s Ben O’Connor finished fourth overall on his Tour debut.
Only three other Australians — Phil Anderson, 2011 winner Cadel Evans, and Richie Porte — have ever finished in the top five.
Australia’s multimillion-dollar campaign to attract Hollywood productions to its shores appears to be paying off.
The allure of Australia lies not only in its picturesque locations but also in its competitive financial incentives.
The government offers generous rebates and tax breaks to international productions, making it an attractive proposition for filmmakers looking to maximise their budgets.
Despite the recent intake of Hollywood productions down under such as ‘The Fall Guy’ and ‘Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga’, Aussie independents are still finding the space to carve their own creative path.
Rob Fantozzi joined the program to discuss the latest in Hollywood, and showcased his own upcoming project – ‘Omerta‘. #featured
