Ferrand-Prévot Defends Aero Position After TT Setback

Defending Tour de France Femmes champion Pauline Ferrand-Prévot finished 34th in stage 4’s time trial, 2:13 behind yellow‑jersey leader Marlen Reusser and 1:56 behind rival Demi Vollering. She rode an elevated aero position—explained as the fastest setup for her after wind-tunnel and track testing and considering past iliac artery surgeries—and said she did her best despite not feeling great on the bike. With the deficit large, she and Visma-Lease a Bike plan to close the gap and attack on forthcoming stages, including Mont Ventoux.

Van der Breggen Poised to Break Through as SD Worx Targets Top-Five at Tour de France Femmes

SD Worx–Protime enters the Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift with a pragmatic goal of a top-five GC and a stage win, led by Anna van der Breggen who is a genuine overall title contender. Team sports director Danny Stam calls the race likely to be open due to the tough, varied course, with the time trial not expected to create decisive gaps and breakaways expected to decide many stages; Van der Breggen arrives after recent runner-up finishes in the Vuelta a España Feminina and Giro d’Italia Women in 2026.

Pauline Ferrand-Prévot's historic victory at the Tour de France Femmes earned her significantly less prize money than Tadej Pogačar, but the race director argues that comparing their earnings is inappropriate, as Ferrand-Prévot's team earned €76,190, mainly from her yellow jersey win, highlighting disparities in prize structures between men's and women's cycling.
