Chris Froome wins the Tour as Ireland’s Dan Martin and Sam Bennett enjoy strong finishes

Bennett had a superb final-day finish, recovering from injuries suffered in a first-day crash.

Andre Greipel won the final stage of the 2016 Tour de France as Chris Froome crossed the line arm-in-arm with his Team Sky team-mates to confirm his third Tour title.

German Greipel, also the winner in Paris 12 months ago, pipped the late-charging world champion Peter Sagan to the line in the traditional sprint on the Champs-Elysees after racing clear of Norway's Alexander Kristoff on the run-in.
