Hello and welcome to highlights of stage two of the tour to France fam. Alex Swift starting in Thining in Kur. The crowds out in force. Marina Voss leading the race overall for 4 seconds from Kim Laort. Pauline Fon Provo her teammate third at 6 seconds, but a tough gritty day awaited the riders. 2,30 m of elevation, four categorized climbs and many uncatategorized tight twisty roads and then a steep climb up to the finish. Bonus sprint climb coming with 22.9 to go would be a day for the breakaway, but general classification riders beware on a stage such as this. Our attackers early attackers of the day were France of picnic pasta now and Odianique a local rider from the team of Maui star. The pelaton though not keen to let these two go clear the gap never more really than a minute as we ran in towards our categorized climbs. Our intermediate sprint as Shatan Kau took it from Bianique. While behind we had a sprint between Mariana Voss in yellow and Lorenus the European champion in the white. Mariana Voss jumped first. Weebis edging out the Mayo Jean. We headed towards the Mena Qule climb the summit coming with 59.7 km to go and it was Silka Smolders and Elise Shab where we’re starting to see the battle emerging in the early stages of the Queen in the mountains classification. Smolders of Levala Jacob edging out Shab at the top. They persisted with their effort and they took their breakaway clear. Lot of Capeek in the bunch behind the world champ. Not quite on the form that she wanted in this race after going on the offensive on day one. Mount Rybeck of the Vula vessels team went after our breakaway riders. Shab crested the summit to take two points ahead of Schmoulders to extend her lead. Ryan Beck made it up to the breakaway group joining Mava Squibban, the local rider in the Pelaton behind though. Kim Laort momentarily coming to a halt. She was pushed back into the race by her teammates and quickly regained the pelaton. Onto our next Queen of the Mountains, the shab edging out Schmoulders Squibben behind. No points scored. Two and one on the offering. 38 seconds was the gap as we went through the line and Elise Shab was looking for Maya Squeibant to do some work. Schmalders together the Pelaton rolling through. It was disintegrating with every climb that the Pelaton undertook. One lap to go and it was Cassie Anivia that went on the attack on the bonus sprint climb. All of the seconds had gone to our breakaway. She was joined by Pauline Faron Provo who no mar narrowly missed out on a stage victory yesterday. These two though the alarm bells would be ringing in the pelaton as P Peterson bunny hopped the central reservation. The chase was on behind Nuvia the defending champion in this tour to France fam momentarily. Sketchy moment for Nvia Doma who held it beautifully on the descent. It was Belgian champ though, Justine Heira, who brought everything back together. 16 seconds was the gap. Cape looked like she was recovering a bit. Still the breakaway group at the head of the race clear. Rihanna Marcus of the Little Trek team joined them at the front as they headed in towards the final categorized climb of the day. They would have one more ascent of the Kurt Demand Duter. They were caught with just outside 12 km to go. Canyon Shramm onto Krypto’s Khloe Diger on the front. Voss in the bunch behind just outside 10 km to go. 10.8 to be exact. It was Mavi Garcia of Liverul Jaco that went on the attack. The Spanish rider unfortunately losing time in the general classification yesterday. So no immediate danger to those GC riders. She was holding 16 seconds. Volering in the green jersey for FDJ Suez tried to move. Nvia Doma Fisher Black all there. Capeek doing the big turn on the front. Anna Vanderan on the wheel. They were looking to try and set things up for Lorenna Vivas through the Flam Rouge and Garia had to do the climb of climbs in her career as the Pelaton were hunting her down behind with ramps of over 14%. Garcia was digging in deep as behind it was fracturing under the pressure of the Canyon tram zonda crypto team. Pauline Feron Provo on the front, Lyanna Lip, Kim Laort, Lorenna Vivas, Cassie Anuvia Doma all poised and ready to try and just end the hopes of Mavi Garia. But as they came to the line, it was the biggest win of her career at 41 years old. The Spanish rider takes the stage for Lalula Jacob ahead of Lorenna Vivas, Kim Lort and Mariana Voss. What a day. No guts, no glory as they said. And Mavi Garcia gutsy to the max. Look at the elation on the face of Mavi Garcia. She did put in the climb of climbs to hold off the pelaton and she takes a stage of the tour to France Bamavig Swift. Heartbreak yesterday, elation today. That is professional sport. Mavi Garcia takes ahead of Loren Vivas, Kim Loyo in third, lip, Nubia Doma, following from Provo, Peterson, Vanderbrean, and Vodic. Your top 10. What a day. Delight all round for the popular Spanish rider Mavi Garcia takes the stage. Kim Lort though moves into the mile jean the maritian national champion level on time with Mariana Voss Pauling for provo now in third but what a day Kim Lor what a season she is having she leads the tour to France famic swift and becomes the first African rider to do so we move on to the stage from the gatalene to onair tomorrow 163.5 km in length And tomorrow’s stage, it should be a day for the sprinters. They should finally get their out and out chance to try and take a fast finish in this year’s tour of France fam having swift. But in this race, anything can happen. Make sure you tune in for more action tomorrow. [Music]
