Taken on May 30,2019, in Melun, this close-up portrait beautifully illustrates the significance and prestige associated with this coveted sports shirt. Jacques Marinelli's remarkable achievement is highlighted by his six-day reign as the leader of one of the world's most challenging races.

It serves as a reminder that success often comes after enduring immense challenges and pushing oneself beyond limits.
