In the 1967 edition of Paris–Nice, Tom Simpson delivered a defining performance, winning the race. After a disagreement the day before, the two reconciled, and on the climb of Mont Faron, a steep and decisive ascent, Merckx took the stage win while Simpson claimed the overall race lead by 1 minute and 26 seconds. The effort highlighted Simpson’s strength and experience, and despite their clash, Merckx, then a rising star, still looked up to Simpson as a mentor.
