00:00Well, the story, unfortunately, of the last few kilometers, the yellow jersey has crashed.
00:18She is not protected in any way by being inside the three-kilometer rule, which means Damie
00:25Vollering has to come back to the front of the race, otherwise she will lose her yellow jersey.
00:34We saw a yellow jersey on the ground and an image that we are not used to seeing,
00:37it's her teammates who didn't wait for her.
00:39It's true that it was chaos, we had a hard time finding out who was in front of us,
00:43how many groups were there, even for us we knew we had Loos, but we didn't know
00:46that there was necessarily Kasia or Cédrine and the cars were blocked.
00:50Of course, a yellow jersey can be seen on the ground, but I think it was really chaotic,
00:55so difficult to handle.
00:58Unfortunately, it's also part of the game, the falls.
01:01Good luck to the girls who fell.
01:04After that, it's the race, it's a bit of a girl's game, the Tour de France,
01:08so you have to seize the opportunities and see how the organizations react.
01:20I expected it to be worse, so I'm happy it's not too bad.
01:25Is it going to go up crescendo in terms of difficulties?
01:29It's clear that today it's not going to be easy.
01:31After that, it's climbs that are a little less incisive than yesterday,
01:37so if it's like that, it suits me.
01:41But we'll see what happens, I think there will be some movement today.
01:54Nothing less than a big battle until the end.
02:07159 kilometers in the last hilly stage before the big mountains came into view.
02:12The second half of the race really will wear down the legs.
02:15Chance for a breakaway if they can reach the descent, the Côte d'Iffin.
02:19Now we've got a massive breakaway, a huge breakaway of riders,
02:24but we've got 18 riders in this front group.
02:31Stability at 30, 32 minutes and 10 seconds. Current gap.
02:36Niwa Doma relaxed, Marianne Vos had given up hopes of yellow.
02:40Two minutes down in the GC, focus instead on reclaiming the points jersey she won in 2022.
02:46Marianne Vos fires away across the line ahead of Attasalo.
02:50She takes the maximum 25 points in the green jersey competition.
02:57Cole's two-stage wins keeping her in the Maillot Vert,
03:00but for how long? The momentum with Vos,
03:02especially given the DSM riders' struggles as the peloton pace upped.
03:07Another jersey transition in progress, Justine Ghecchiere on a mission.
03:12The Belgian gathering eight points during the first three hours in the fight for the polka dot jersey.
03:27Then with 30 kilometers to go, the toughest climb of the day, La Roche de Prêtre.
03:339% for starters and only getting tougher. No pain, no gain.
03:37The leading group breaking apart as was the fate of the peloton,
03:40Luz Aragast, distanced by her FDJ Suez teammates, setting the tempo.
03:52Niamh Fisher-Black has attacked.
03:5526.6 kilometers to go and she is ripping her way up this climb.
04:00Fisher-Black showing her strength.
04:02The Kiwi the first over the summit, followed by Ghecchiere and Grace Brown.
04:06The trio collaborating, but their advantage reeled back by the now Movistar-powered yellow jersey group.
04:12One rider taking the attention of the home fans.
04:16It's really great to be able to make these turns and I think it's cool.
04:19In any case, it's nice when it's for us.
04:21But in general, I think it's great to see the number of people now moving for the women's cycling and it's great.
04:27I hope the legs will be there today because I think it's going to be exceptional and it's going to be really special today.
04:45She catches Ghecchiere, she takes with her Cedrin Kerbal.
04:50That attack ended the day's breakaway, but set up a fascinating finale.
04:55Big attack on the right hand side comes from Cedrin Kerbal.
04:58She now strikes and goes clear.
05:01The chance for stage honors and maybe more.
05:04Cedrin Kerbal attacked from the bunch and soon left Paulina Roy-Jakers behind.
05:09The solo leader right now going for glory is Cedrin Kerbal.
05:15The leader of the Ceratiz WMT team trying to win today's stage.
05:20The blazing Breton out on her own.
05:22Canyon scram riders belatedly reacted to try and save the yellow jersey of Neva Doma.
05:27Not since Gini Longo, 35 years ago, had the French celebrated a home winner.
05:31A great fervor as Kerbal entered Moto.
05:35We have a French victor on stage six.
05:39Take a bow Cedrin Kerbal.
05:41Cedrin Kerbal, 14 kilometers of incredible racing.
05:46French victory, stage win.
05:50Marianne Vos takes second ahead of Liana Lippert.
06:03It's true that it's been two or three days that it's been a bit of a mess.
06:09I said to myself, I'd like to give it my all.
06:16I hope that I will continue to progress and become even stronger.
06:23But of course, I'm in the shape of the moment.
06:28I've never won such a legendary race.
06:33And I've never been so close to all the girls in front of me.
06:39It's crazy.
06:46A devastating display from Kerbal.
06:48The 23-year-old, the first French winner since the Tour's rebirth in 2022.
06:52And a maiden World Tour success.
06:55And despite being the virtual leader for a time,
06:57Canyon scram did enough to deny her the yellow jersey.
07:00Neva Doma remains the GC leader, with Kerbal now second ahead of Faulkner and Pieterse.
07:06Demi Follering still over a minute adrift.
07:09Almost a perfect day for Marianne Vos.
07:1150 points gobbled up.
07:13The Dutch master into green with a 25-point cushion.
07:18A relentless performance from Justine Heykieri.
07:2111 points pocketed means she's three clear of Pieterse in the Queen of the Mountain category.
07:26The young Dutch will swap polka dots for her white jersey on stage seven.
07:30The Fenix de Koenig rider still with a 45-second cushion.
07:35The penultimate stage sees a first for the women's Tour.
07:37A finish in the Alps.
07:39The longest day with a peak finish at the Grande Bronnande.
