Marianne Vos doubles up in yellow on Stage 6 after Lorena Wiebes crash at Tour de France Femmes
Marianne Vos (Jumbo-Visma) sprinted to Stage 6 victory at the Tour de France Femmes to extend her lead in the yellow jersey to 30 seconds ahead of the mountains, and practically secure the green jersey. Vos followed up her victory on Stage 2 with another dominant sprint success, although she was helped by the absence of Lorena Wiebes (Team DSM) who was unable to latch back on after crashing on a descent at high speed.
Ad/> Vos is expected to lose the maillot jaune when the first mountain test arrives on Saturday, but this victory all but wrapped up the points classification. Vos moves to 267 points, with Wiebes a distant second on 191 ahead of two stages that will not favour sprinters.
