Tour de France Femmes: Stage 5 Live

Riders are undergoing checks for aerodynamic chest padding as the Tour de France Femmes moves to stage five, covering Mâcon to Belleville-en-Beaujolais. Marlen Reusser anticipates hard attacks on the course, stating: "I'm certain there will be hard attacks ... hopefully not heart attacks ... and we will try to follow."

Following her strong individual time trial performance, Katarzyna Niewiadoma-Phinney commented: "It's one of the steps to the main goal. I know the real stuff is ahead of us. We're definitely happy with the execution, but we keep our focus on upcoming stages. One day at a time." chickenroad-game.rodeo
