Last year’s Tour concluded outside Paris for the first time since 1905 because of a scheduling conflict with the Olympics, with the final stage held in Nice. The Champs-Élysées returned this year for the conclusion of the 3,320-kilometer (2,060-mile) race.

Watch the exciting finish to the 21st and final stage of the Tour de France in Paris, where a group of cyclists battled wet conditions after a tough day of climbing up and around the Basilica of Sacré Cœur de Montmartre.

Three passages over Montmartre mixes up the traditional procession on the Champs-Élysées for stage 21 of the Tour de France.
