Pre-race favourites
The French team had had some problems with the selection, as Jacques Anquetil, the winner of the 1957 Tour de France, did not want to share leadership with Louison Bobet, winner in 1953, 1954 and 1955.http://www.cyclingrevealed.com/timeline/Race%20Snippets/TdF/TdF1958.htm Little Charly Gaul Climbs to a Tour Victory Barry Boyce 2004 Cycling Revealed 19 February 2010 Anquetil had been so superior in 1957, that he did not want Bobet and Géminiani both in his team. The French team selector then chose to include Bobet in the national team.McGann McGann 2006 228–236 Raphael Géminiani, who had been in the French national team since 1949, was demoted into the regional Centre-Midi team. Géminiani was not pleased, and sent the French team director Marcel Bidot a "jack-ass" named "Marcel" to express his displeasure.
Charly Gaul was part of a Dutch / Luxembourg team and agreed to share his prizes with the team in exchange for their support.McGann McGann 2006 228–236

Race overview

The first stage left in Brussels, to celebrate Brussel's World Fair.McGann McGann 2006 228–236 In the first stages, Luxembourgian climber Charly Gaul struggled, and lost considerable time in flat stages.
During a break in the sixth stage, Anquetil and Bobet were left behind. Géminiani was in the leading group, and gained more than ten minutes on his rivals. After the sixth stage, Gerrit Voorting was in first place, followed by François Mahé from the French national team, and Géminiani.McGann McGann 2006 228–236
In the seventh stage, Arigo Padovan won the sprint from Brian Robinson. The jury however relegated Padovan to second place for irregular sprinting, and Robinson became the first British winner of a stage.McGann McGann 2006 228–236
The ninth stage again saw a large breakaway, this time including Darrigade. Darrigade won the sprint, and because the next group was more than 10 minutes behind, he became the new leader.McGann McGann 2006 228–236
Géminiani and the French national team were still on bad terms. When Gastone Nencini, a threat to both, had escaped and the national team members asked Géminiani to help them to get Nencini back, Géminiani refused.McGann McGann 2006 228–236
The Pyrénées were visited in stage 13. Darrigade was not able to keep up with the leaders, and lost the lead. Bahamontes had tried to escape but failed, and later Gaul tried to escape, but he also failed. The favourites finished together, and Géminiani became the new leader; Vito Favero was only three seconds behind him.McGann McGann 2006 228–236
In the fourteenth stage, also in the Pyrenees, Bahamontes escaped again, and this time he managed to stay away and win. Géminiani finished in the next group, but because Favero won the sprint for the second place, he received 30 seconds bonification time, and became the new leader.McGann McGann 2006 228–236
In the fifteenth stage, Favero again finished second, and extended his lead again by 30 seconds.McGann McGann 2006 228–236
In the eighteenth stage, a mountain time trial, Gaul won back time, and jumped from sixth place to third place in the general classification. Géminiani jumped back to the first place in that stage.McGann McGann 2006 228–236 In the nineteenth stage, over the Alps, Gaul had mechanical problems, and lost ten minutes. Second-placed rider Favero was now at a margin of more than three minutes.McGann McGann 2006 228–236
In the twentieth stage, again in the Alps, Bahamontes finished first. Gaul lost a few seconds to Géminiani in that stage, so after the twentieth stage, Gaul was more than sixteen minutes behind Géminiani.http://www.cyclingrevealed.com/Aug06/Aug_Cover_Feature3.htm Cycling revealed 1 March 2010 Graham Jones Great Escapes August 2006 https://web.archive.org/web/20100201115513/http://www.cyclingrevealed.com/Aug06/Aug_Cover_Feature3.htm 1 February 2010 live With only a few stages left, Géminiani appeared to be able to win the race.
In stage 21, the weather conditions were bad. Before the stage started, Gaul told Bobet that he would attack on the first climb of the day, which he did. Bahamontes followed him, but let himself drop back because the weather was too bad and the finish was still far away. Gaul continued on his own, and his margin with the next cyclist kept growing. Géminiani now asked the French national team to help him, but they could not help and did not want to help. Géminiani forgot to take food in the food zone, and was hungry in the last part of the stage.McGann McGann 2006 228–236 In the end, Gaul won the stage almost 8 minutes ahead of the next rider. Favero came in third, more than ten minutes later, and Géminiani seventh more than 14 minutes behind. Favero was again first in the general classification, with Géminiani only 39 seconds behind in second place and Gaul 67 seconds behind in third place.http://memoire-du-cyclisme.net/eta_tdf_1947_1977/tdf1958_21.php Mémoire du cyclisme 45ème Tour de France 1958 - 21ème étape fr https://web.archive.org/web/20120320164541/http://memoire-du-cyclisme.net/eta_tdf_1947_1977/tdf1958_21.php 20 March 2012 26 September 2016 dead After that stage, Géminiani accused the French team of treason, because he said it was due to their attacks that he lost the lead.http://www.letour.fr/HISTO/us/TDF/1958/histoire.html The Tour - Year 1958 Amaury Sport Organisation 19 February 2010 https://web.archive.org/web/20100717054703/http://www.letour.fr/HISTO/us/TDF/1958/histoire.html 17 July 2010 dead dmy-all Because of the extraordinary circumstances, the time limits were not enforced that stage. Second-placed rider Favero was now at a margin of more than three minutes.McGann McGann 2006 228–236
Stage 22 was flat, and the favourites stayed together. This meant that the time trial in stage 23 would be decisive.
In that time trial, Gaul was the first of these three to start. Gaul set the winning time, and Géminiani and Favero lost more than three minutes, so Gaul took the lead in the general classification. Anquetil, who felt sick and was behind in the general classification, did not start that stage.McGann McGann 2006 228–236
The last stage traditionally saw no problems for the leader, and Gaul became the first Luxembourgian cyclist since 1928 to win the Tour. In the final sprint in the last stage in the Parc des Princes, André Darrigade was in first position when he collided with Constant Wouters, the 70-year-old secrétaire-général of the stadium, who was attempting to prevent photographers encroaching on the track. Darrigade needed five stitches, but Wouters' injuries were more serious, and he died eleven days later.https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/general/tour-de-france-an-alternative-view-of-the-ultimate-road-race-456215.html https://web.archive.org/web/20080403055243/http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/general/tour-de-france-an-alternative-view-of-the-ultimate-road-race-456215.html dead 3 April 2008 Tour de France: An alternative view of the ultimate road race 6 July 2007 The Independent 19 February 2010
Classification leadership and minor prizes
The time that each cyclist required to finish each stage was recorded, and these times were added together for the general classification. If a cyclist had received a time bonus, it was subtracted from this total; all time penalties were added to this total. The cyclist with the least accumulated time was the race leader, identified by the yellow jersey.Nauright Parrish 2012 452–453The yellow jersey changed hands eleven times, the most ever.Augendre 2016 49http://www.bicycling.com/tourdefrance/article/0,6802,s1-7-130-16191-1,00.html 81 Reasons The Yellow Jersey Still Matters Bruce Hildenbrand Bicycling 20 August 2006 19 February 2010 https://web.archive.org/web/20100211201036/http://www.bicycling.com/tourdefrance/article/0%2C6802%2Cs1-7-130-16191-1%2C00.html 11 February 2010 dead dmy-all Gaul had an average speed of 36.919 km/h, which was a new record. Of the 120 cyclists that started the 1958 Tour de France, 78 finished the race.
The points classification was calculated by adding the stage ranks of each cyclist.Nauright Parrish 2012 453–454
The mountains classification was calculated by adding the points given to cyclists for reaching the highest point in a climb first.Nauright Parrish 2012 454
The team classification was calculated as the sum of the daily team classifications, and the daily team classification was calculated by adding the times in the stage result of the best three cyclists per team.Nauright Parrish 2012 455 It was won by the Belgian team, with a large margin over the Italian team.
In addition, there was a combativity award given after each mass-start stage to the cyclist considered most combative. The decision was made by a jury composed of journalists who gave points. The cyclist with the most points from votes in all stages led the combativity classification.van den Akker 2018 211–216 Federico Bahamontes won this classification, and was given overall the super-combativity award.Augendre 2016 49 The Souvenir Henri Desgrange was given in honour of Tour founder Henri Desgrange to the first rider to pass the summit of the Col du Lautaret on stage 21.
