Demi Vollering won the 2026 women’s road race world title in Montréal, completing a historic 'triple crown' of the Giro, Tour de France Femmes, and World Championships. However, the UCI fined her 1,000 CHF and docked 25 points for using a 'non-compliant position' on her bike during the race. The fine, described as rare by Velo, did not affect her victory. Vollering beat Kasia Niewiadoma-Phinney in a close finish after a chaotic race involving multiple crashes and a late solo effort.
