Marianne Vos (Visma | Lease a Bike) was 2nd in Stage 3 of La Vuelta Femenina 25 by Carrefour.es and is the current leader of the Points classification.

“We knew it was going to be a bit of an hectic stage yet again today. It was dry and there were some occasional sections of crosswinds, but never enough to produce real echelons. We still had to be attentive the whole time to be at the front with the team. That was the biggest task of the day, and we undertook it as a team. We tried to spur some action ahead of the sprint, but it wasn’t enough to create a real split. I took second place in both the intermediate sprint and the finish. I was hoping for more, but Femke [Gerritse] was the fastest today. I’m not surprised with her performance - I already knew she is really fast.”

“I think there are a lot of possibilities tomorrow. There is a possibility for a break to go, there is a possibility for GC riders to make splits, and there's also a possibility for a smaller group going to the finish. Anyway, given the profile of the stage, we know that the final will be pretty hard.”
