At the 2004 Giro d'Italia, Wegmann won the "King of the Mountains" jersey as the race's best climber. At the 2005 Tour de France, Wegmann attacked early on Stage 7 in an attempt to win the stage that ended in Karlsruhe, Germany. Due to his tremendous lead (at points up to 17 minutes on the main peloton), he became the virtual leader in points and general classification. However, he was caught near the end of the stage. He has worn the King of the Mountains Polka Dot Jersey on 2 occasions in the Tour de France. He won the 2007 and 2008 German National Road Race Championship.
