00:00So who's going to win the Tour in 2024?
00:09That's a good question.
00:12I'd say maybe a Dutch girl.
00:15Yeah, it's good that the BIP number is on my back.
00:18I cannot see it myself, you know.
00:20No, of course I feel a bit of pressure from the outside.
00:24Everybody thinks I can do it again.
00:27I have the feeling people think it's easy,
00:30but it's for sure not so easy.
00:35It's just incredible.
00:36There are a lot of people.
00:37We knew that when we left the Netherlands,
00:39we would look for the enthusiasm of the public.
00:41Everyone is here to encourage the champions,
00:43especially the Dutch champions.
00:45There are a lot of them.
00:46All my family is here, my friends.
00:48Yeah, I'm definitely excited to start.
00:51It's really nice that we can start in the beautiful Netherlands.
00:54I'm sure the crowd will be incredible.
00:57It's going to be a lot of fun to start the Tour.
00:59It's the event of the year that I'm looking forward to the most
01:02with the GEOs that have passed.
01:04My sister was already like,
01:05it's going to be such a big party.
01:07I was like, yeah, nice for you.
01:09I think it will be really nice.
01:11I think there will be a lot of people watching
01:13and also nice to have a lot of friends and family.
01:16There's a lot of pressure on our shoulders,
01:19but I think we're all really excited
01:21and quite confident that we can pull off something nice.
01:25What does it change for you
01:26that Elisa Longoborg initially is not there?
01:28She's always a big part of the team.
01:30She has been the entire season
01:32and especially also after winning the Giro.
01:35But we still have seven really strong riders here
01:38and I think we can make it a really good race.
01:41It's true that when there was Annemiek in the team,
01:43it was easy, general classification, all-in for her.
01:46But this year, we're going to aim for more stage victories.
01:49We really have a super aggressive team
01:51who have already won two stages last year.
01:53So I think we're still able to do the same thing this year.
01:56The yellow jersey, if possible,
01:58of course, I won't take it just to not have it.
02:00But for now, Demi is still really above everyone
02:03this year when it's on stage races like this.
02:05But we never know.
02:07And why not a stage victory if possible
02:09also in the week, that would be great.
02:11People are saying Canyon should be the best team
02:14during this Tour de France.
02:16Do you agree with that analysis?
02:18Yes, we definitely came here to fight for yellow jersey.
02:22We have a lot.
02:24We have, for sure, some French riders,
02:28Evita Musique and Julia Labousse.
02:31Kaya Rialini is also very strong.
02:34But Niamh Bradbury also showed she's really good on the climbs.
02:37Kasia Niewiadoma, of course.
02:39So still a lot of good riders to look out for.
02:49123 kilometers from Rotterdam to The Hague,
02:53a flat affair for the sprinters to rip it up.
02:56Who will wear the edition's first yellow jersey?
03:00The 2024 Tour de France Femme Avec Swift
03:04rolls out of the race start here in Rotterdam,
03:08ready for today's first stage.
03:12How important it is for you to keep the focus
03:16and not have any issues.
03:23The flag is ready.
03:25The dreams of a Tour de France victory are now underway.
03:30The dreams of a Tour de France victory are now underway.
03:40Tour director Marion Rousse signalling the official start
03:43of the 2024 Tour de France Femme Avec Swift.
03:47Despite the soaring temperatures, the peloton's pace was high.
03:50Cristina Tornetti finally made a brake stick.
03:53Another attack from this team of Labrol-Couture.
03:58With 65 kilometers of road remaining,
04:00she'd built up a minute lead.
04:02Meanwhile, more jitters, a crash on a bridge.
04:06And there's a crash and a big crash of riders.
04:10And there's a few riders who've been held up here.
04:15Newly crowned Olympic time trial champion Grace Brown
04:18trying to regain contact,
04:20passing the Lidl track teammates in trouble.
04:22Team leader Gaia Reallini forced a bike change.
04:25Two minutes down, maybe too much assistance from the team car.
04:29I also think right now, as far as the commissaires are concerned,
04:33Gaia Reallini has a problem.
04:35If they sit behind the car for a long, long, long time,
04:38there's nothing the commissaires want to see.
04:41In the end, the Italian able to make contact once again.
04:45The Mass Delta Tunnel celebrating its official opening
04:48with the Tour's presence.
04:50Tornetti making sure of the polka dots.
04:53This is a massive moment for this team and for this rider.
04:57Her finish line was here, and she's reached it in first place.
05:01Queen of the Mountains, Cristina Tornetti.
05:05Job done.
05:06The La Maral-Cudsat youngster able to put her feet up
05:10back in the peloton, preparing for the intermediate sprint.
05:13The sprint team's getting into position to make a dash
05:16for the first green jersey points.
05:18The peloton rolling towards Groningen.
05:21So it's going to be a big attack now.
05:23The team of Wiesmann-Liessabay,
05:25as they kick for the sprint finish.
05:27Marianne Vos goes for the points.
05:29So it is.
05:30Marianne Vos from Ruby-Rosemann-Gannon
05:33all the way to the line.
05:34Marianne Vos takes the first intermediate sprint.
05:39Points in the bag for Marianne Vos,
05:41yet her rivals clearly hanging back to focus on the finale.
05:45Flat, yet quite chaotic.
05:48Flat, yet quite chaotic.
05:51If quite, a spectacular background.
05:54Kirsten Falkner had to dump her special US National
05:57and Olympic champion custom paint job for a standard bike.
06:01Further bother for Lido Trek, Elisa Balsamo,
06:04swapping bikes too.
06:05This as they headed towards the stage judgment at The Hague.
06:09Lorna Weves, the overwhelming favourite,
06:11but who would lift their arms at the finish?
06:14It makes it a bit more special to be also favoured
06:16in a big race like this.
06:18But it's always a dream to wear the yellow jersey,
06:21and especially in the Netherlands.
06:23Poker face, Savannah van der Breggen,
06:26who's giving nothing away.
06:28Oh, big crash here.
06:29Two riders are down.
06:321,000 metres of racing now remain on today's stage.
06:37The team of DSM-Ferminec post-NL move up
06:40with Pfeiffer, Giorgi and Charlotte Kuhl.
06:43The team of Human Powered Health,
06:44Charlotte Kuhl is there.
06:46The team of Uno-X are also there.
06:48Moving on the left-hand side, Weves gets ready.
06:51She's almost freewheeling with 700 metres to go.
06:54Such is the power of a lead-out train.
06:56Charlotte Kuhl on the wheel of Pfeiffer,
06:58Giorgi going very, very early.
07:01Looking down from this helicopter shot,
07:03and I think Charlotte Kuhl might have gone way too early,
07:06but I don't know because Lorena Weves isn't there.
07:10Garishi goes, big move right-hand side
07:12from Charlotte Kuhl.
07:14She's still accelerating.
07:16Charlotte Kuhl kicking her way towards the finish line.
07:19Stage one, Charlotte Kuhl, yellow jersey.
07:23Wow.
07:25Charlotte Kuhl has done it.
07:28What an incredible, incredible sprint.
07:36This is, I think, the best day of my life.
07:43It's unbelievable.
07:45It's a dream coming true.
07:47It was not an easy season,
07:49but this is where it was all about.
07:52I want to thank my trainer,
07:55who always keeps believing in me,
07:58and all my people around me, close around me.
08:02This is, yeah, unbelievable.
08:13Esti works machine malfunctioning,
08:16but Kuhl's train, on the other hand,
08:18launched her to a first Grand Boucle victory
08:20and just a second-stage success of a tough campaign.
08:23The Dutch speedster hitting a maximum speed of 69.9 kilometers an hour,
08:28claiming the first yellow jersey,
08:30and on home soil.
08:34DSM Femenik have now won the first stage
08:37of both the men's and the women's tour this season.
08:41Bonus seconds means Kuhl is four seconds clear
08:44of Finnish champion Annina Aalto-Salo,
08:48and former world champion Alisa Balsamo third.
08:51No surprise that the sprinter's jersey has gone to Kuhl as well.
08:56She'll be resplendent in yellow, though.
08:58She'll pass green to Voss.
09:02Cristina Tonetti kicked off the front
09:04to lead in the Queen of the Mountain category.
09:07A huge moment for the Italian and her team.
09:12Uno-X Mobility active enough to set up
09:16Aalto-Salo's eye-catching performance.
09:18The 20-year-old will wear the white jersey
09:21for the under-23 riders.
09:24The odd quirk of a split stage
09:26with a short sprint for breakfast
09:28before a wee time trial for lunch.
09:30Who will dine out in splendid yellow?
09:41.
