The ceremonial final stage of the 2026 Tour de France, a roughly 130 km run from Thoiry into central Paris. The finale takes in three ascents of the Montmartre climb on the Rue Lepic in the closing 15 km before opening onto the Champs-Elysees. With the general classification decided on Alpe d'Huez the day before, the day is a procession for the leaders and a sprint for the rest. The shirt: The final stage in Paris is where the yellow jersey (maillot jaune) is paraded and locked in, cycling's single most-sold piece of race merch.

The traditional pre-summer-break race closes July before F1 goes quiet until Zandvoort. The shirt: Last team-gear showcase before the August break; driver merch drops cluster around it.
