who are the five time winners of the tour de france
List of Tour de France general classification winners Jacques Anquetil, Eddy Merckx, Bernard Hinault and Miguel Indurain, have won the most Tours with five each. Lance Armstrong was the winner of seven consecutive Tours between 1999 and 2005,[3] but he was stripped of these titles in October 2012 by the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) after it emerged that he had used performance-enhancing drugs.[4] Indurain is the only man to win five consecutive Tours. Henri Cornet is the youngest winner; he won in 1904, just short of his 20th birthday. Firmin Lambot is the oldest winner, having been 36 years, 4 months old when he won in 1922.[5] French cyclists have won the most Tours; 21 cyclists have won 36 Tours among them. Belgian cyclists are second with 18 victories, and Spanish riders are third with 12 wins.[6] The most recent winner is Chris Froome of Team Sky, who won the 2017 Tour, his third in succession, and fourth in total.[7]
