Marianne Vos (Visma | Lease a Bike): “Faulkner was the strongest”

May 1 ^st 2024 - 18:09 [GMT + 2]

It was a tough day. Everybody at the front that it was going to be windy and that echelons will be formed. It was really good to have Riejanne [Markus] and Sophie [von Berswordt] with me at the front, to ride along with me and help keeping the same group all the way to the final. We fell short of getting the stage win because the attack from [Kristen] Faulkner was just too strong. We just couldn’t catch her after the climb. She was the strongest. Taking the Red jersey was not our objective for today, but we are happy to be in this position.
