So far in his career, his best results have primarily come on home soil. He has won a total of four stages in the Tour de France in four separate years, running from 2015 to 2017 and then in 2024; he placed in the top ten overall for five consecutive years (from 2014 to 2018) and finished on the podium twice: second overall in 2016 and third overall in 2017. He has also worn the Young rider classification jersey, and won the Mountains classification jersey in 2019 as well as the overall Combativity Award in 2015. Outside of France, he won a stage at the 2021 Vuelta a España, and won the general classification at the 2022 Tour of the Alps.

Professional career

edit

AG2R La Mondiale (2012–2020)

edit

2012–2013

edit

Bardet turned professional in 2012.[4] He distinguished himself in that year's Tour of Turkey especially in the 3rd stage, which was a mountain affair, where he attacked relentlessly to finally take fifth place.[5] He also finished fifth overall in the race.[6]

The following season, Bardet rode his first Tour de France and took his first professional victory at the Tour de l'Ain.

2014

edit

His next victory came the following year when he won La Drôme Classic, his first single-day race win. Bardet finished 4th overall at the Volta a Catalunya and also rode his first Critérium du Dauphiné where he finished 5th overall. Going into the Tour de France, Bardet was team leader together with Jean-Christophe Péraud. Bardet climbed to 3rd place overall at the end of the second week, and even had a short stint in the white jersey. Despite losing his podium place in the final week, Bardet still attacked on downhill sections to potentially gain seconds on his rivals. In the end, Bardet finished 6th overall and Péraud finished 2nd overall. Thibaut Pinot (FDJ.fr) took the win in the white jersey standings, in front of Bardet in 2nd place.

2015

edit
 
Bardet at the 2015 Tour de France

After a spring campaign which included a 6th place at Liège–Bastogne–Liège and 9th overall at the Tour de Romandie, Bardet was regarded as one of the outsiders for a podium spot in the Tour de France. In his final stage race before the Tour, the Critérium du Dauphiné, Bardet went on the attack on the downhill section before the last climb on stage 5. He gained a minute on the technical descent, then climbed up to the ski resort of Pra-Loup to win the stage solo, 36 seconds ahead of second-placed Tejay van Garderen.[7] He went on to finish 6th overall at the race.

At the Tour de France, Bardet lost time in the crosswinds in the Netherlands and the team time trial in the first week. When the mountains finally arrived, Bardet lost even more time and with almost half of the race done, out of general classification contention. On the last day in the Pyrenees, he went into the breakaway and finished third in the stage to Plateau de Beille. Bardet and Thibaut Pinot were part of a breakaway and led over the top of the final Côte de la Croix Neuve climb of Stage 14. However, the pair were caught and overtaken by Steve Cummings (MTN–Qhubeka) on the short descent to the finish at Mende Aerodrome, and Bardet finished third in the stage. On 23 July 2015, after a solo breakaway, Bardet won Stage 18, a mountain stage for his first Tour de France stage victory.[8] The next day, he claimed the polka dot jersey for the first time, after finishing fifth in Stage 19, another mountain stage.[9] However, he lost the polka dot jersey to Chris Froome on Stage 20. Bardet finished in ninth place in the final general classification and won the combativity award of the Tour.

2016

edit
 
Bardet on his way to winning Stage 19 of the 2016 Tour de France

In February 2016, Bardet repeatedly attacked Vincenzo Nibali (Astana) during Stage 4 of the Tour of Oman and ultimately finished the stage in second position, 9 seconds behind him. Bardet finished the Tour of Oman second overall, 15 seconds behind Nibali.[10] In June, Bardet attacked during Stage 6 of Critérium du Dauphiné and ultimately finished second in the stage after being outsprinted by Thibaut Pinot to the finish line in Méribel. After Stage 6, Bardet rose to third overall in the general classification, 21 seconds behind the leader Chris Froome.[11] Bardet finished second overall in the Critérium du Dauphiné final general classification, 12 seconds behind Froome.[12]

On Stage 19 of the Tour de France, Bardet and his team mate Mikaël Cherel attacked together on a wet descent before the penultimate climb. Bardet escaped the yellow jersey group on the lower slopes of Mont Blanc with 10 kilometres (6.2 miles) to go. Bardet caught the breakaway survivor Rui Costa with 7 kilometres (4.3 miles) to go, dropped him on the steepest pitches of the final climb with 3.2 kilometres (2.0 miles) remaining and won the stage by 23 seconds over second-placed Joaquim Rodríguez; ultimately, he was the only Frenchman to win a stage in the 2016 Tour de France. After winning Stage 19, Bardet rose from fifth to second overall in the general classification. He finished the Tour in second position in the final general classification, 4:05 behind Chris Froome,[13] becoming the sixth Frenchman to finish in the top three in the final general classification over the previous 30 editions; the other five were Pinot and Jean-Christophe Péraud (both 2014), Richard Virenque (1996, 1997), Laurent Fignon (1989) and Jean-François Bernard (1987).[14]

Bardet was selected to represent France at the Summer Olympics in the individual road race, finishing 24th.

2017

edit

After crashing on stage 1 of Paris–Nice, Bardet was thrown out of the race after he had been towed by his team car.[15] Bardet won stage 12 of the Tour de France, with an acceleration near the finishing line in Peyragudes in the French Pyrenees, going clear with less than 500 metres (1,600 feet) to go to take his third stage win in as many years.[16][17] Bardet struggled throughout the penultimate stage, a 22.5-kilometre (14.0-mile) individual time trial, that started and finished in Marseille; he finished in 52nd position, 2 minutes 3 seconds behind its winner Maciej Bodnar.[18] Bardet dropped from second to third in the general classification going into the final stage, with a one-second lead over fourth-placed Mikel Landa. Bardet managed to hold on to his advantage, completing the podium behind Chris Froome and Rigoberto Urán.

2018

edit

Bardet missed the Vuelta a Andalucía after injuring his right arm in a domestic accident.[19] He returned to action with a victory in the Classic Sud-Ardèche in February. In March, Bardet rode the Strade Bianche one day classic, held partly on gravel roads in torrential rain. He broke away with the world cyclocross champion Wout van Aert and the pair led the race for much of the final 40 kilometres (25 miles) before Tiesj Benoot (Lotto–Soudal) attacked from a chasing group to catch and then drop them in the final sector of dirt roads. Benoot soloed to victory by 39 seconds ahead of Bardet,[20] who dropped van Aert in the final kilometre.[20] At Liège–Bastogne–Liège, Bardet finished 3rd – his first podium at a Cycling monument – after losing the 2nd place sprint to Michael Woods. When riding the Critérium du Dauphiné, Bardet never challenged for the overall win and only entered the top 3 inside the last two days.

When he arrived at the start of the Tour de France, Bardet had a troubled first week with mechanicals and punctures.[21] He lost time on multiple occasions during the first week and was almost two minutes behind when they started the 10th stage. On stage 12 to Alpe d'Huez, Bardet attacked and rode away from the other contenders. He was later joined by Chris Froome, Geraint Thomas and Tom Dumoulin, but decided to test the contenders with numerous accelerations. He ended the stage in 3rd place and rose to 6th place in the general classification.[22] With Bardet only being 8th in the general classification before stage 19, he and several other contenders attacked on the Col du Tourmalet with almost 100 kilometres (62 miles) to the finish line.[23] Despite being caught on the last climb, Bardet finished third in the sprint to the finish line. He moved up to a final placing of sixth overall after the penultimate stage, an individual time trial – his fifth consecutive top-ten finish at the race.

In September, Bardet finished 2nd in the road race at the UCI Road World Championships, after having attacked with Alejandro Valverde (Spain) and Canada's Woods. The group was later joined by Tom Dumoulin (Netherlands) inside the last kilometres. Valverde started the sprint with almost 200 metres (660 feet) to the finish line but Bardet never looked like a serious challenge and had to settle with 2nd place.[24]

2019

edit

Bardet started his 2019 season with a block of racing in France, finishing second overall at the Tour du Haut Var, losing out to Thibaut Pinot on the final stage, which ended with a summit finish at Mont Faron.[25] He then finished fourth in the Classic Sud-Ardèche, seventh at La Drôme Classic and fifth overall at Paris–Nice.[26] In preparation for the Tour de France, Bardet contested the Critérium du Dauphiné, finishing in tenth place overall, and was second to Jesús Herrada in the inaugural Mont Ventoux Dénivelé Challenge, which finished atop Mont Ventoux.[27] At the Tour de France, Bardet lost more than 20 minutes on stage 14 – which finished at the Col du Tourmalet – which removed him from overall contention.[28] He then shifted his focus to attempting to winning stages from the breakaway, but his best result was a second-place finish on stage eighteen, won by Nairo Quintana.[29] However, Bardet did take the lead of the mountains classification,[30] holding the polka-dot jersey for the remainder of the race.[31] He ended his season following the Tour de France, stating that he needed to "regenerate".[32]

2020

edit

Bardet contested four races in the early part of 2020, prior to the COVID-19 pandemic-enforced suspension of racing, with his best result being second overall at the Tour des Alpes-Maritimes et du Var. Following the resumption of racing, Bardet contested only races in France for the remainder of the season, with the exception of Brabantse Pijl and the Tour of Flanders held in Belgium in October.[33] He ran as high as fourth overall in the Tour de France, but withdrew ahead of the fourteenth stage following a crash, which left him with a concussion and a "small haemorrhage".[33][34]

Team DSM (2021–present)

edit

In August 2020, Bardet signed an initial two-year contract with Team Sunweb, later renamed Team DSM, from the 2021 season, and team dsm-firmenich, from the 2023 season.[35]

2021

edit
 
Bardet made his first start at the Giro d'Italia in 2021, finishing seventh overall

Bardet made his first start at the Giro d'Italia, sharing team leadership with Jai Hindley, the 2020 runner-up.[36] Bardet made his way up the general classification, moving into the top ten overall after stage 14, finishing at the Monte Zoncolan. He finished second to Egan Bernal on stage 16,[37] and moved up to fifth place overall on the penultimate stage, following a fourth-place stage finish.[38] However, he fell to seventh in the general classification during the final-day individual time trial, dropping behind Daniel Martínez and João Almeida. Bardet also rode into the leader's jersey at the Vuelta a Burgos, a preparation race for the Vuelta a España. In spite of his crash on the descent of the Picón Blanco climb, he won the third stage solo to Espinosa de los Monteros, his first in over three years.[39] He held a 45-second lead over Mikel Landa heading into the final stage, but he lost the race lead to Landa after cracking in the final 3 kilometres (1.9 miles) of the stage; he ultimately finished sixth overall, and won the mountains classification.[40]

On stage 5 of the Vuelta a España,[41] Bardet crashed and lost over twelve minutes; he lost a further thirteen minutes the following day, removing him from overall contention. On stage 14, he was involved in the breakaway; he chased down several counter-attacks, and went clear with 6 kilometres (3.7 miles) to go. He then rode solo to the summit finish at Pico Villuercas to claim the stage win, 44 seconds ahead of Jesús Herrada.[42] Bardet held the mountains classification for four days, before the lead passed to his teammate Michael Storer.[43] Bardet and Storer also made it into the breakaway on the penultimate stage; Storer mathematically sealed the mountains jersey ahead of the final time trial, while Bardet finished second in the standings.[44]

2022

edit

Prior to the Giro d'Italia, Bardet took the overall victory at the Tour of the Alps, his first general classification win since the 2013 Tour de l'Ain.[45] With Jai Hindley having moved to Bora–Hansgrohe, Bardet had outright team leadership at Team DSM for the Giro d'Italia,[46] and during the race, he signed a two-year contract extension with the team.[47] In the ninth stage, Bardet finished second to Hindley on a summit finish at Blockhaus, moving up to third place overall.[48] He lost a place to Richard Carapaz a couple of stages later, and was out of the race altogether by the end of stage thirteen, abandoning the race due to sickness.[49]

 
Bardet at the 2022 Tour de France

His next start was at the Tour de France, where he finished in the top-three on the eleventh stage, which finished at the Col du Granon; he moved up to second overall behind Jonas Vingegaard following the stage.[50] He lost almost 20 seconds to Vingegaard, Geraint Thomas and Tadej Pogačar the following day, as he dropped from second to fourth on Bastille Day. He lost more than three minutes on stage sixteen,[51] dropping to ninth overall; he yo-yoed around the lower half of the top-ten placings for the remainder of the race, finishing seventh overall on the road, before being promoted to sixth with Nairo Quintana's disqualification.

2023

edit

Bardet started his season with top-ten overall finishes at the Tour des Alpes-Maritimes et du Var and Paris–Nice stage races – finishing eighth and seventh respectively – and also finished in ninth place at La Flèche Wallonne.[52] At the Tour de Romandie, Bardet finished third on a hilly second stage, and ultimately finished in seventh overall. He contested the Tour de Suisse for the first time,[53] where he recorded three top-ten stage finishes, and finished fifth overall.[54]

2024

edit

Bardet opened the 2024 season with a third place in the Classic Var in February. In late April, he finished second to Tadej Pogačar in Liège–Bastogne–Liège.[55] He next competed in the Giro d'Italia, finishing second on stage 10 and 9th overall.

In late June, Bardet won his fourth career Tour de France stage on the first day of the race, holding off the chasing peloton by five seconds with teammate Frank van den Broek.[56]

Bardet lives in Clermont-Ferrand.[57] Alongside his professional cycling career, he began business studies in 2011, in the grande école program adapted to high-level athletes in Grenoble School of Management.[58]
