- Wiebes: ‘It’s really special the Tour is back for women’
Lorena Wiebes of Team DSM, the most prolific sprinter in the women’s peloton, out-manoeuvred Marianne Vos, of Jumbo-Visma, to win the opening stage of the revived women’s Tour de France in Paris.
Wiebes, winner of the RideLondon Classique in May, accelerated past Vos in the final 100m of the curtain-raiser to the women’s race, an 82km stage based on laps of the Champs-Élysées.
