The 1907 Tour de France was the 5th Tour de France and first to have a Luxembourg representative place in the top 10. Taking place between July 8 and August 4, 1907, the race totaled 4488 km (2,788 mi) and the average riding speed was 28.47 km/h (17.690 mi/h). The winner of the 1906 Tour de France, René Pottier, had committed suicide so was not defending his title.

Émile Georget was close to winning the race, when he was penalized for borrowing a bicycle. The lead then transferred to Lucien-Petit-Breton. Petit-Breton was an unknown cyclist before the race; He had entered the race in the "poinçonnée" category, a category fo riders who didn?'t have the support of a team, so he was allowed virtually no mechanical assistance. Petit-Breton won two stages, and won the overall classification. This year's Tour de France, unlike its predecessor was almost free of sabotage but the cheating that plagued the previous races continued.
