'She’s up to the fight' - Vollering shows strong form after emotional 'rollercoaster' of crashing at Tour de France Femmes

REMIREMONT FRANCE AUGUST 16 Demi Vollering of The Netherlands and Team SD Worx Protime prior to the 3rd Tour de France Femmes 2024 Stage 6 a 1592km stage from Remiremont to Morteau UCIWWT on August 16 2024 in Remiremont France Photo by Alex BroadwayGetty Images.

After the disappointment of crashing and losing the yellow just 24 hours ago, Demi Vollering (SD Worx-Protime) bounced back with a strong showing on stage 6 of the Tour de France Femmes, marking key moves and not losing any time en route to Morteau with her legs feeling back to normal.

Vollering went down in a mass crash after the exit of a roundabout on stage 5 and lost 1:53 to new race leader Kasia Niewiadoma (Canyon-SRAM), with the team later confirming that while she had sustained “minor bruising and superficial abrasions to her lower back and buttock”, she would likely start the sixth stage.
