Lorena Wiebes (DSM) made history with victory on Stage 1 of the inaugural Tour de France Femmes – marking her win by appearing on the podium with a baby. And not her baby. The Dutch star delivered on her tag as the favourite to overhaul Marianne Vos (Jumbo-Visma) in a drag race to the line on the Champs-Elysees.
PARIS — Lorena Wiebes of the Netherlands sprinted to victory Sunday in the first stage of the women's Tour de France, which returned after a 33-year absence.
PARIS : In a sport that has a heavy doping past, any Tour de France winner is being put under scrutiny and Jonas Vingegaard was no exception after Saturday's final time trial.
Mark Cavendish described the «wall of noise» that Tour de France competitors have to deal with in the last stage at the Champs-Elysees. While the first part of the day’s racing is typically not competitive, with cyclists coming together to acknowledge the winner-elect, the concluding final sprint around the Champs-Elysees — there will be eight laps on Sunday — is hotly contested.
Jonas Vingegaard of Denmark will ride into Paris on Sunday as a first-time Tour de France champion after placing second in Saturday’s time trial.
It's a double helping of the Champs-Elysees on Sunday as the inaugural Tour de France Femmes gets underway shortly before the men's race finishes on the iconic cobbled strip. It’s an interesting twist to start the race where the men end, with a sprint finish the most likely outcome unless the weather intervenes.
Tour de France leader Jonas Vingegaard (Jumbo-Visma) holds such a commanding lead in the general classification that he can afford a crash on the Stage 20 time trial and still win the overall race, according to Eurosport expert Dan Lloyd. The Dane holds a 3’26” lead over second-placed Tadej Pogacar (UAE Team Emirates) ahead of the 40.7km time trial from Lacapelle-Marival and Rocamadour. Ad/> Pogacar has been in a not entirely dissimilar position before.
Jonas Vingegaard insists he will not take any risks and that his "best should be enough" on Saturday's key time-trial as he stands on the verge of being crowned Tour de France champion.
