Neither of them had ever finished higher than 20th in a Grand Tour. "Not in my wildest dreams did I imagine this would be possible when we started out in Sicily almost a month ago,” Geoghegan Hart said. It was the first time since the 1994 Giro that the winner and runner-up in a Grand Tour were eligible for the U25 classification.

"This is the Tour, this is the Tour, there is nothing more important than the Tour de France and I want to take this jersey back to Colombia," Bernal said after completing the grueling 3,409 km three-week marathon in triumph. It was only his second Grand Tour finish, having taken 15th, supporting Thomas and Froome, in last year's Tour de France. "It was a Tour de France of emotions," said race director Christian Prudhomme, describing it as the best since he took charge in 2007. "If you think he's only 22, Bernal could go on to win more Tours de France than any of us," he reflected.

He now trails Alaphilippe by one minute, 35 seconds.

"If he wins this Tour, he's going to have to get a lot smarter." In Saturday's grueling 14th stage between Tarbes and Tourmalet, Thomas lost 30 seconds on Alaphilippe.

(Photo by Bryn Lennon/Getty Images)(CNN) - Going into the Tour de France's first big mountain climb in the Pyrenees, the question was: How much time would Geraint Thomas make up on Julian Alaphilippe? Alaphilippe was a mere six seconds behind in second for the stage, while Thomas, of Wales, had to settle for eighth, 36 seconds adrift. Alaphilippe had solidified his hold on the yellow jersey with a time-trial win Friday that boosted his advantage to one minute, 36 seconds over Thomas. Sunday's 15th stage from Limoux to Foix Prat d'Albis is another draining mountain climb and even longer at 185 kilometers (115 miles).

Not since 1985, Bernard Hinault's fifth and final triumph, has a Frenchman won their nation's foremost event and it clearly hurts. It was fitting and perhaps an omen that Bernal was presented with his yellow jersey for winning Paris-Nice by the legendary Belgian Eddy Merckx, a five-time winner of the Tour de France. "It's a bit special, more open, it'll be a much different Tour than usual. The next three weeks will see legends born, reputations enhanced or diminished, but like every previous Tour de France is guaranteed to be memorable.
