Marlen Reusser (Movistar) seems to be stronger than ever this season. Having already won the Vuelta a Burgos Féminas and Tour de Suisse Women, the 33-year-old flew around the course of the Giro d’Italia Women opening ITT in Bergamo in her Swiss National Champion’s jersey to seize both the stage and take the pink jersey.
This string of success must give Reusser a feeling of redemption after a nightmare 2024 season that was plagued with illness, when she couldn’t know if she would return to her previous levels.
