Following her record-setting third Liège-Bastogne-Liège Femmes victory on Sunday, Demi Vollering has made the case for women's cycling to get more time on television.

The men's race, run earlier in the day and won by Tadej Pogačar for a fourth time, enjoyed live coverage for 150km of its 259.5km length. In contrast, a relatively small portion of the women's race was aired on television, with only around 45km broadcast.
