About this chart

Five riders share the record of 5 Tour de France overall titles: Jacques Anquetil, Eddy Merckx, Bernard Hinault, Miguel Indurain and now Tadej Pogacar. Pogacar equalled it in 2026 with his third win in a row, after 2020, 2021, 2024 and 2025. Anquetil became the first five-time winner in 1964, Merckx matched him in 1974, and Indurain won all five of his consecutively, from 1991 to 1995.

The chart counts cumulative general classification titles at each year-end, per official records. Lance Armstrong's seven wins from 1999 to 2005 were annulled in 2012 and not reassigned, so he does not appear. Floyd Landis's 2006 and Alberto Contador's 2010 wins were also stripped, leaving Contador with 2. Chris Froome has 4, Jonas Vingegaard 2, and Remco Evenepoel finished second in 2026. No Tour was held in 1915 to 1918 or 1940 to 1946.
