It was still a surprise considering she looked quite easy earlier on. But great for the team that Kastelijn seems to be back to her best.

Once PFP was in that group of three with Kastelijn you knew they wouldn't come back. Kastelijn just never pulls, even when she has a teammate in the group. But yeah, you can't deny that she's at a good level.

I think she was right not to contribute too much in that situation, but yeah, you wouldn't really expect her to either with her track record.
 
SD worx describing it as a beautiful result...yes it was, wasnt it 😍
 
Ouch, former fdj riders: CUL has never finished outside the top ten, now finishes 15 minutes back along with Marta Cavalli. I hope both find better form again after their serious injuries.
 
Managed to watch a replay finally. Good racing, even though the winner was expected. Surprised by VDB and PFP, very good racing from them.

For now I choose to focus on the positive: They finished over a minute ahead of Longo Borghini, and I definitely didn't expect that prior to the race 😀

I never spotted Cille in what was left of the peloton, but at least it didn't look like she had been part of any of the crashes when she arrived at the finish. It was a bad day for the team in general. Towers and Niedermaier could possibly have scored some half decent results under different circumstances.
 
I was impressed with Jayco having five riders in the final group. They obviously do not have the same top end talent but if they continue to do this they will get a win because one time circumstances will fit.

Yeah, they must have been the most fortunate team to not lose any them to crashes or punctures throughout the race.

Unlike the men, they didn't set a new speed record, but it was the fastest edition since 2019 when the route was easier.
 
Princess Demi, great team with Juliette and Evita, celebrating while sporting that great tee.
Never thought that I could write it, but bring the Tour already!
