Après deux belles journées aux Pays-Bas et la prise de pouvoir (déjà) de Demi Vollering (SD Worx-Protime), le Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift quittait pour la première fois de cette 3e édition la Hollande pour rejoindre la Belgique ce mercredi, à l'occasion d'une 4e étape très attendue ! Au programme, deux Classiques ardennaises en une, avec un départ sur les routes de l'Amstel Gold Race avant d'emprunter les côtes du final de Liège-Bastogne-Liège (La Redoute, Forges et Roche-aux-Faucons). Disputée dans des conditions difficiles sous une pluie continue, cette étape a comme prévu fait de sacrés dégâts et le ménage au général. La victoire est revenue à Puck Pieterse (Fenix-Deceuninck), auteure d'une superbe course pour signer à 22 ans son premier succès pro sur la route ! La spécialiste du cyclo-cross et du VTT s'est imposée de justesse au sprint devant Demi Vollering pour poursuivre le festival des Néerlandaises sur ce Tour.

00:00Yeah, it's a really good day for me and for the whole team.
00:23My teammates did a really good job with keeping me safe today in the front.
00:29It was a really nice day for us.
00:30Can you explain your strategy in the last kilometre?
00:32Because Kasia attacked and you had Puck in the wheel.
00:35It was not a good situation.
00:38Yes, I hoped first that Puck would close it, but she didn't directly.
00:42So then I did myself because I didn't want to give Kasia too much space
00:47because, yeah, if she's gone, she's gone.
00:50And then I closed it on my own speed
00:54so that I didn't
00:58empty myself there and also that I knew
01:02that Kasia still would believe a little bit
01:06towards the last few hundred metres, so that it was kind of a lead out for us.
01:13So I, yeah, I hoped she kept on going and luckily she did.
01:18And yeah, and then Puck started to sprint first.
01:24And I thought for a few seconds, I'm going to make it still.
01:28But then on the line, I had already the feeling like,
01:31I think it was just not enough.
01:34And yeah, then Puck won.
01:37But it's nice to see because Puck is a really talented rider
01:41and I think she really deserves this win herself.
