Stage six report: The Tour de France Femmes leader, Marianne Vos (Jumbo-Visma) won stage six of the race, from Saint-Die-Des-Vosges to Rosheim in the Alsace region, after outsprinting Marta Bastianelli of the UAE Team. Jeremy Whittle was there to see it ...
Stage six in summary: Marianne Vos (Jumbo-Visma) was first past the post in the latest stage of the Tour de France Femmes, her second win of the race increasing her lead on GC to 30 seconds, with the remaining two stages in the mountains to come.
For all her talent, Vos will almost certainly lose the yellow jersey in tomorrow’s mountain stage to Le Markstein but can console herself with the fact that she has all but secured the green jersey. She has a 76 point lead over Lorena Wiebes, who would have fancied her chances of making it a hat-trick of stage wins this afternoon, were it not for a high speed fall on a descent that left her bloodied and bruised.
