The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- He stated before the 1961 Tour that he would gain the yellow jersey on day one and wear it all through the tour, a tall order with two previous winners in the field, Charly Gaul and Federico Bahamontes, but he did it.
- His victories in stage races such as the Tour were built on an exceptional ability to ride alone against the clock in individual time trial stages, which lent him the name "Monsieur Chrono".
- He won eight Grand Tours in his career, which was a record when he retired and was surpassed only by Eddy Merckx and Bernard Hinault.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Jacques Anquetil article was read about 50,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 88 and blocks with 88: each hit it takes is cut by 35 %.
