Tobias Halland Johannessen

Tobias Halland Johannessen (born 23 August 1999) is a Norwegian road cyclist, who currently rides for UCI WorldTeam . Along with his twin brother Anders, Tobias raced in mountain biking, cyclo-cross and road cycling, before deciding to focus primarily on road racing. Knee injuries had kept him from competing in much of the truncated 2020 season. In July 2021 he named to the Norwegian team to compete in the road race event at the 2020 Summer Olympics.

Career Johannessen began cycling alongside his brother Anders as a means of getting to school. He initially focussed on cyclo-cross and mountain biking before switching his focus to road racing, signing with the Uno-X development team for the 2021 season. In June 2021, Johannessen finished second in the General Classification of the Giro Ciclistico d'Italia, as well as finishing second on two individual stages.

Johannessen raced the 2022 Tour of Norway, in which he took the leader's jersey after the second stage and eventually finished in fourth position, winning the Points classification. He also raced the 2022 Critérium du Dauphiné, in which he won the Young Rider Classification after finishing 10th overall, over a minute ahead of nearest challenger Brandon McNulty.

He participated in the 2023 Tour de France, ending third on stage six, and top 10 on three additional stages.

In one of his first races of 2024, Johannessen was close to winning the Classic Var, but mistook a metal gantry close the finish for the actual finish. This led to Lenny Martinez overtaking him a few metres before the finish line, thus snatching the victory. In the run-up to Tour des Alpes-Maritimes, Johannessen was regarded by some as a contender to winning the General Classification. He finished 4th on the first stage, but crashed on the second stage and fractured his collarbone. Johannessen returned to racing in the Volta a Catalunya, two months later.

He rode in the 2025 Tour de France, finishing in the top ten overall.
