· By Press Office · 0 comments

What do Marcel Kittel and François Faber have in common? They’re the only riders in the history of the Tour de France to have won at least five of the first 11 stages at a Tour de France edition. What makes it even more remarkable is that these extraordinary feats are separated by more than a century, until today no one getting close to this record that stood since the Luxembourger claimed a spectacular win in Nice, ahead of Jean Alavoine and Paul Duboc, on July 15 1909.
