A jersey that tells the story of the combination classification
Recognisable by its different colours, the Tour de France combination jersey recalls a classification that no longer exists and was last contested in 1989. Greg LeMond won it during the 1985 Tour de France, riding for the French team La Vie Claire.
Our video explores the history of this jersey and its distinctive classification, as well as the story of the team founded by Bernard Tapie.
