Demi Vollering (FDJ-Suez) is the overall and QOM winner of La Vuelta Femenina 25 by Carrefour.es
“It’s really cool to win this race for the second time in a row. I also wanted this stage victory in Cotobello. I decided to wait for as long as possible to launch my attack. It was hard to wait, but I’m happy that I won the way I did. I’m always looking forward to proving my talent, and I’m already thinking of the next races.”
“I’m really proud of what we achieved here with the team. It was nice to see us succeed like we did. It’s a bit scary to come into a Grand Tour with a new team, because you don’t know how it will go. In this stage race, we found each other well on the bike and proved we can work really well together. The girls did a great job, from kilometer zero to the finish. It’s a new job for everybody, and it was cool to see everybody step up and find their way in this new role. The FDJ-Suez girls are very easy to work with. It’s a nice group of girls, very motivated. I had a difficult time at the beginning of this race, and they were great at supporting me and keeping me motivated. This brought us further together.”
“How we worked together as a team was very nice and I'm very happy about that. It's a good sign for what's coming later in the year, during the Tour de France for example. I think we also found some small details we can still improve. That's always good to know. We just need to keep believing. If you manage to land these results already during the learning process, then it's a good sign.”
