Despite anger on social media and critical comments from CPA president Adam Hansen and CPA Women’s Manager Alessandra Cappellotto, Kathrin Hammes and Audrey Cordon-Ragot have defended and forgiven a photographer’s motorbike that touched Hammes and passed riders closely during stage 4 of the Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift.
Speaking to Cyclingnews at the start of stage 5 in Onet-le-Château, Belén López, the CPA Women rider’s representative at the race, revealed that Hammes spoke in favour of the motorbike rider after the stage.
