The current GC standings at the Tour de France 2025

A series of short, sharp climbs brought the GC contenders out to play on stage 2 of the 2025 Tour de France, but it was Mathieu van der Poel (Alpecin-Deceuninck) who came away with the stage victory and the maillot jaune in Boulogne-sur-Mer on Sunday.

Van der Poel had to fight off a late challenge by World Champion Tadej Pogačar (UAE Emirates XRG), who finished second ahead of GC rival Jonas Vingegaard (Visma-Lease a Bike).
