CAPTION PRINTED BELOW PICTURE: 'Tour de France 1966 - Miroir du Cyclisme - Miroir Sprint'

The 1966 Tour de France stretched over 4,329 km across 22 stages and marked the first victory for French rider Lucien Aimar, who seized the yellow jersey through tactical riding and strong climbing. Aimar’s win was aided by support from his team leader, five-time Tour champion Jacques Anquetil, who played a key role in controlling the race. Dutchman Jan Janssen finished second, continuing to build his reputation as a versatile and consistent competitor, while Raymond Poulidor secured third place. The green jersey for the points classification was awarded to Willy Planckaert. This edition is remembered for Aimar’s calculated triumph, Anquetil’s sportsmanship in assisting his teammate, and protests by the riders against dope testing.
