Au lendemain du lancement de cette 4e édition du Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift, les coureuses ont parcouru ce dimanche à l’occasion de cette 2e étape 110 kilomètres entre Brest et Quimper. Et à la surprise générale, c’est Mavi Garcia (Liv AlUla Jayco) qui s’est imposée ! Sortie à 10 kilomètres de l’arrivée, l’Espagnole de 41 ans a réussi à ralier la ligne en solitaire, devançant les favorites de quelques secondes. Derrière, Lorena Wiebes (SD Worx-Protime) et Kimberley Le Court Pienaar (AG Insurance-Soudal) ont réglé le groupe des leaders. Marianne Vos (Visma | Lease a Bike) n’a elle pris que la 5e place. Et grace aux 4 secondes de bonifications accordées à la 3e position, Kimberley Le Court Pienaar s’empare du Maillot Jaune, dans le même temps que Vos.

[Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] you from Maicius today. It’s another Oh, yeah. Honestly, I crossed the line. I actually didn’t know what I’ve done until I was ready to go to the bus and cool down like yesterday, but then my team was telling me, “Yeah, take yellow today.” Yeah, I could not believe it. Um, to be honest, I think I’m still shocked. It was the plan to do it today to try and take it yesterday, but then today try everything we have. The bony wasn’t possible because of the breakaway. So, everything was played on the finish. Yeah, it’s a bit of a shock, but Is it the first part of your plan? Because you came here for the GC. You will fight day after day to keep it. Yes, of course. Yeah, the ultimate goal of the team was to fight for GC towards the end of for the end of the tour for the overall. But yeah, our goal was to also win the stage. I’ve come close twice, but now that I’ve have the yellow on my shoulders, it’s already a massive achievement for the team myself. So, we’re going to try and stay calm and stay safe and try and not lose any time until the end of the week and just take it day by day. Does this yellow jersey today erase a bit of the disappointment of yesterday finishing second? Yeah, of course, yesterday was a bit upsetting, but it’s not weak. So, anything can happen and I’m still going to keep my head on my shoulders and we’re just going to keep on doing what we’ve been doing since yesterday and yeah, like I said, just take it day by day and follow the plan. Take him. Thank you.
