TheSouvenir Henri Desgrange is an award and cash prize given in the yearly running of theTour de France , one of cycling'sGrand Tour races. It is won by the rider that crosses a particular point in the race, mostly the summits of thehighest and iconic climbs in theAlps andPyrenees .[ 1] Henri Desgrange ,[ 2] [ 3]
Following the death of Desgrange in August 1940,[ 4] 1947 Tour , the first Tour since1939 , having been cancelled during World War II.[ 5] stage 11 ,Raymond Impanis was the first of the field to pass a point by Desgrange's final residence, the "Villa Mia" in Beauvallon,Grimaud , on theFrench Riviera .[ 6] [ 7] 1948 Tour , the prize was earned byRoger Lambrecht in the opening few kilometres at the summit of theCôte de Picardie climb inVersailles , Paris.[ 8] [ 9] [ 10] [ 11] 1950 and1951 Tours saw the award marker point moved into the mountains atop the 2,058 m (6,752 ft)-highCol du Lautaret ,[ 12] [ 13] [ 14] [ 15] Col du Galibier in the Alps, his favourite and one of the Tour's most iconic climbs.[ 16] [ 17] [ 18] 1952 ,[ 19] [ 19] 1965 Tour , the Galibier has always been used when it was passed.[ 19]
The tunnel at the summit of the Galibier was closed for safety reasons in 1976 – eventually re-opening in 2002.[ 20] [ 21] [ 22] [ 23] 1979 Tour , whenLucien Van Impe claimed the award.[ 17] stage 19 of the2011 Tour , but in that edition the Galibier was climbed twice in celebration the 100th anniversary of its appearance in the Tour.[ 24] previous stage was atop the full Galibier climb, whereAndy Schleck claimed memorable stage win as well as the award after his 60 km (37 mi) solobreakaway .[ 25] [ 24] 1998 Tours, when ItaliansFausto Coppi andMarco Pantani , respectively, took the award and then went on to win the stage, which proved decisive to both their overallgeneral classification victories.[ 18] [ 26]
Non-summit marking points have been sparsely used for the award.[ 19] 1964 Tour .[ 19] Cysoing in the far north hosted on the1956 Tour , marking 200,000 kilometres travelled in Tour de France history.[ 27] [ 19] Stage 11 of the1978 race saw the award given toChristian Seznec at the legendary village ofSainte-Marie de Campan in the valley between theCol du Tourmalet andCol d'Aspin in thePyrenees ,[ 28] 1913 Tour , per the rules,Eugène Christophe was forced walk 14 km (9 mi) down the Tourmalet carrying his bicycle broken before repairing it at aforge in Campan.[ 29] Grand Départ stages ) of the1981 Tour , hosted byNice , with the award at first planned to take place in the final kilometres ofstage 1a beside theCarrefour supermarket on thePromenade des Anglais . This break from tradition was seen by the media as disrespectful to the race and the legacy of Desgrange.[ 30] [ 31] [ 31] Landes forest 42 km (26 mi) before the end ofstage 7 inBordeaux ,[ 32] [ 33] Theo de Rooij as a result of him being at the front of the leading breakaway group.[ 34]
From the 1965 Tour onwards, if the Galibier was not passed then the award was instead given atop a climb of similarly equal height, most commonly the Tourmalet, and beginning with the1997 Tour , thehighest climb of a Tour was mostly used when the Galibier was not included.[ 19] [ 35] 2013 Tour and the2023 Tour , the highest climb was always used. The2024 Tour saw the award return to the Galibier, despite a higher climb occurring on stage 19. On two occasions, the Galibier climb was cancelled due to bad weather and the award locations were moved;[ 36] Col d'Aubisque ,[ 37] [ 38] [ 39] landslides in 2015 moved the award to 2,250 m (7,382 ft)-high AlpineCol d'Allos .[ 40]
The amount of cash given as a prize for the award was higher in the early Tours.[ 19] 2003 , the winner has received a €5000 prize.[ 19] 1963 Tour has the award not been given, although at the conclusion of that race there was a special "Desgrange prize" given to the general classification winnerJacques Anquetil who was adjudged to have had the best "head and legs" throughout the Tour.[ 19] [ 41] Souvenir Jacques Goddet , honouring the second Tour directorJacques Goddet , is a similar award in the race given since the2001 Tour mostly atop the Tourmalet.[ 42] [ 43]
