World time trial champion Marlen Reusser traded her rainbow jersey for a yellow one on stage 4 of the Tour de France Femmes as 'Project Dijon' turned into 'Project Nice'.

The Swiss rider held off a strong challenge from Dutch time trial champion Lieke Nooijen to win by four seconds in France's mustard capital. More importantly, however, she put 17 seconds into Demi Vollering, a minute into Kasia Niewiadoma-Phinney, and two minutes into defending Tour champion, Pauline Ferrand-Prévot.
