Katarzyna Niewiadoma (Canyon//SRAM): “I woke up believing that this was the day”

This victory means a lot to me. I really hope that with this victory I have inspired a lot of people who are pursuing their dreams to keep going. I’ve failed a lot of times, with many near-misses, and never stopped believing. Reward is always there, waiting for us.

Elisa Longo Borghini (Lidl-Trek): “Kasia launched her sprint in the perfect spot”

Our leader today was Gaia Realini, but she was struggling due to the cold weather and she eventually told me to take my chance. It was a very hard day because of the tough weather conditions.

Vollering in pursuit of the double

Who can beat Demi Vollering? Last year, nobody did it in the Ardennes. The Dutch rider won the Amstel Gold Race Ladies, La Flèche Wallonne Femmes and Liège-Bastogne-Liège Femmes in one week, a "very special" treble that only her sporting director Anna van der Breggen had achieved in 2017. Since then, she has overwhelmingly confirmed her status as the new...

Prime time
