With the first foreign Tour de France Femmes Grand Depárt less than 24 hours away, Lorena Wiebes, Marianna Vos and Charlotte Kool are set to line out as the heavy home favourites for victory on stage 1 of the 2024 Tour de France Femmes and secure the first yellow jersey for the Netherlands.
It’s a feat Wiebes managed in 2022 when she powered up the cobbles of the Champs Élysées to net victory in Paris ahead of Vos, however, her excitement at the prospect of another, on home soil no less, was palpable as she spoke to Cyclingnews ahead of the race.
