Bernard Hinault

Bernard Hinault boasts an undefeated record when finishing grand tours, never losing a race he completed. His five Tour de France titles and ten grand tour victories place him second only to Eddy Merckx in total grand tour wins. Notably, Hinault retired in 1986 after sharing victory with Greg LeMond, a move that displays his unique combination of ferocity and sportsmanship. His career win rate in major tours stands at 100% completion, a feat faster than the average of other three-time winners.
