Le dernier vainqueur sur le Tour d'Italie 2023 se nomme Mark Cavendish (Astana Qazaqstan Team) ! Pour l'ultime journée de sa carrière sur le Giro, le champion de Grande-Bretagne s'est imposé à Rome ce dimanche à l'occasion de 21e étape, signant ainsi son premier succès depuis onze mois. Aidé notamment par son ami Geraint Thomas (INEIOS Grenadiers), qui lui a donné un coup de main dans le final, celui qui a décroché sa 17e victoire sur le Tour d'Italie a largement devancé les surprenants Alex Kirsch (LUX, Trek-Segafredo) et Filippo Fiorelli (ITA, Green Project-Bardiani CSF-Faizanè) à l'issue d'un sprint massif marqué par une grosse chute à une cinquantaine de mètres de l'arrivée. Entouré par ses coéquipiers de la Jumbo-Visma, Primoz Roglic a quant à lui vécu une ultime journée de course sans embûche - même si le final a été très tendu - et remporte donc le 106e Giro.

00:00 Joe, your first top three in a Grand Tour, what was the feeling on stage with Roglic and Thomas?
00:06 It was pretty special, being there with two Grand Tour winners and especially those who they are, they are so much experience and so good.
00:16 So it was a pleasure, very special and hopefully I'll be back there again.
00:21 It was your last chance to be the best young rider, what will you come back for?
00:26 I think this jersey, I can't be up there anymore. On the other hand it's good, I'm growing up, which is a good thing.
00:36 But the main goal is always the GC, the podium, so let's say this is a bonus.
00:42 How much do you think you can still improve your cycling?
00:45 I think I still have a good margin, I still can grow up a little bit, I'm still far from my top I think.
00:52 I will keep working hard for it of course, but let's find out the next years.
00:57 And you will come back to the Giro d'Italia?
00:59 I will come back, I don't know if it's next year, but definitely I will come back.
01:03 You'll be welcome back.
01:04 Thank you.
01:05 Thank you.
