La 26e édition du Simac Ladies Tour s'est élancée ce mardi aux Pays-Bas, avec un contre-la-montre inaugural de 10,1 kilomètres dans les rues de Gennep. Alors que certaines des meilleures rouleuses du monde étaient présentes - comme Lotte Kopecky (Team SD Worx-Protime), Chloé Dygert (Canyon//SRAM Racing), Ellen Van Dijk (Lidl-Trek)... - c'est la jeune Zoe Bäckstedt (Canyon//SRAM Racing) qui a créé la sensation en s'imposant et en remportant ainsi sa première course chez les professionnels.

00:00A big applause for Zoe Baxtent!
00:17I'm really surprised. I'm really happy to take the stage today.
00:20I really didn't expect it at the start of the day.
00:22It makes it even more special.
00:25And then here on stage, in the ceremony, what kind of emotions?
00:31A lot of joy and just taking in the emotion of getting all the different jerseys.
00:37Seeing everyone clapping for me, it's really nice.
00:40Did you expect to win?
00:42No, really not. At the start of the day, no.
00:45I was just here to race my bike and test my legs a little bit, not to win today.
00:52And when did you feel, well, it's going really well today?
00:56When I was riding, I never really felt that it was going good.
01:00I always thought, my legs aren't feeling amazing.
01:03I was still pushing really hard and my legs were hurting and everything was telling me no.
01:08But when I got in and I heard the time, then I was surprised.
01:12At the end of the season, I think it feels very good to take this big win.
01:17Yeah, really, it feels really good.
01:20Because your season was not that good until now?
01:25Yeah, I had quite a big break in the middle of the season due to sickness.
01:30And now I'm back and I'm feeling good again and preparing for the cyclocross season.
01:35First yellow jersey here in the SEMA Gladys Tour.
01:39Do you expect to keep the jersey?
01:45Yeah, it's a lot of sprinter stages, so I think the chances of me keeping it are a little bit smaller.
01:50But yeah, I try to hold on to it for as many days as possible and just enjoy wearing the jersey.
01:55And normally when you ride a good time trial, the form is okay?
02:00Yeah, normally it's okay, but we will see how it goes tomorrow.
02:03Also a lot of wind in the next few days.
02:08So yeah, just enjoy it and have some fun, that's my plan.
02:11Well, congrats again and enjoy it.
02:13Thanks, thank you very much.
