00:03 [SPEAKING FRENCH]

00:13 Obviously, we've waited a long time for this.

00:25 Me, a year longer than everyone else.

00:27 So I'm really happy to be here.

00:29 This is the second one.

00:31 I take in mind a lot of nice memories,

00:34 especially for the people.

00:37 [SPEAKING FRENCH]

00:39 Everybody, of course, is in the running.

00:52 Everybody is doing the preparations

00:54 and getting ready.

00:55 And then finally, the day is there that it's getting started.

01:00 I'm really excited to be here again.

01:02 Good memories from last year.

01:04 So ready to fight for it again.

01:06 Lorena Wiebes wins stage one.

01:09 History is made.

01:10 These are the emotions that we want to live

01:12 and we want to experience this year also.

01:16 That's what we live for.

01:17 That's what we ride for.

01:20 The watches is really nice to have a duel between me

01:22 and Demi.

01:23 It will be a big battle for sure between us.

01:25 Of course, Annemiek is a rider you can never count out.

01:27 And she's very important to this race, I think.

01:30 This Tour de France is a race everybody has really in mind

01:34 and really peaks towards too.

01:36 So from my feeling, I think we cannot say it's only a battle

01:41 between me and Annemiek.

01:42 We're underway with edition two of the Tour de France

01:49 VAM Avex.

01:52 The first stage in and around Clermont-Ferrand.

01:55 No great challenge until the sole category climb

01:58 at Cote des D'Urtaules.

02:00 Nearly two kilometres at 7%, likely to determine

02:04 the first yellow jersey of 2023.

02:07 And the restart has just been given.

02:11 We're getting set for the start of the Tour de France

02:14 VAM Avex Zwift.

02:16 And stage one, Clermont-Ferrand to Clermont-Ferrand.

02:20 123.8 kilometres of racing is underway.

02:25 Some agitating to go clear, but nobody able to build and

02:29 maintain a break.

02:31 First attack of La Tour came from Cofidis' Martina Alzini.

02:37 But as was the order of the day, Escapee is given short

02:40 thrift by the peloton.

02:42 Traffin Laurence, the next one to feel there was a chance

02:45 to make a burst.

02:47 Yet as the Breton pushed, the first casualty of the Tour.

02:50 Oh, crash.

02:52 One rider is in the field at the side of the road.

02:56 Maria Benito of AG Insurance, Soudal Quick-Step, caught the

03:00 rough edge of the road.

03:01 Thankfully conscious on her way to hospital, the Spanish

03:04 rider the first to abandon the race.

03:08 Laurence pushed up the road.

03:10 The Breton could not maintain the mere 30 second gap she

03:13 created. 32 degrees out on the road.

03:19 A lot of nervous energy translated to a rather

03:22 uneventful first 100 kilometres.

03:24 Thoughts hardening with every passing revolution of the

03:27 wheels to the finale.

03:29 No one tried to break out.

03:35 The tension still coursing through the race.

03:38 Taking a leaf out of the Spice Girls book, Marta Lasch

03:41 responded to show her power.

03:44 The best break of the day to finally create some daylight.

03:47 Yet a 50 second lead quickly dwindled heading into the

03:51 intermediate sprint at Saint-Hypolite.

03:55 And the increasing velocity proving too much for some.

03:59 Oh, and a crash.

04:01 Some riders have hit the deck here on the right hand side,

04:04 just as there was that little shift across the road.

04:08 A perfect illustration of the stress and strains on day one.

04:14 Former world champion Lizzie Denon bagged the first 25

04:17 points on offer towards the green jersey.

04:21 With no established breaks, it was the battle of the Lidl

04:24 Trek and SD Vortex trains as the first sights of the Côte

04:28 de D'Hertoghe came into view.

04:31 With no one willing to take the bull by the horns, Lotte

04:34 Kopecky grabbed her opportunity to make something happen.

04:39 Here goes the attack.

04:41 Lotte Kopecky now fires off the front.

04:43 A big move by Lotte Kopecky.

04:47 She takes the point.

04:48 She takes the queen of the mountains jersey.

04:51 And now does she continue?

04:54 Belgium may have been surprised there wasn't a greater

04:57 response.

04:57 Demi Voring disrupting the chase to Ashley Moorman's

05:00 annoyance.

05:01 In the descent back to Clermont-Ferrand,

05:04 no one catching the double winner of the Tour de France.

05:08 It was an explosive attack on the final climb of the day.

05:13 Lotte Kopecky, first yellow jersey of the Tour de France

05:18 Fama-Vexwicht.

05:20 Kopecky executing the Dutch team's plan B.

05:23 Lorena Weevis sprinting to the line ahead of Charlotte Kuhl

05:27 for a stunning SD Vortex one-two.

05:29 The fourth time the pair have been part of one this season.

05:32 The dominant force of the Women's World Tour.

05:35 The Belgian national champion 30 years ago on the Champs-Elysees.

05:43 This time she headed right to the top.

05:45 41 seconds on teammate Weevis.

05:48 Out sprinted compatriots Charlotte Kuhl and Marianne Vos.

05:51 Kopecky in iconic yellow, an honor Weevis enjoyed in 2022.

06:02 The Belgian delighted with her day's work.

06:04 It was something that was actually on my mind already

06:11 quite a long time.

06:12 I think the last three weeks I was joking about it

06:15 with my best friend.

06:16 And every day we texted each other

06:17 and we said like 10 kilometers to go to yellow.

06:20 So yeah, it's amazing that I can also just do it.

06:24 And this year we just have a super strong and super good

06:27 team together.

06:28 And it's really nice to race like this.

06:29 Not satisfied with one points classification leader

06:31 as well, thanks to her 11th win of the season,

06:34 Ashley Moolman in green tomorrow.

06:38 No surprise, her explosive kick up the Cote d'Auto

06:41 means Kopecky is also the early queen of the mountain.

06:44 That's Irina Vnewadoma, who swapped for a Canyon's

06:47 Vibrant Tour jersey for a spell in polka dot.

06:52 One jersey not held by Kopecky, French national time trial

06:56 champion Sylvain Kerbaud.

06:58 And his 37th overall to earn the white jersey for the best

07:02 youngster.

07:02 [French announcement]

07:06 It's true that it's a bit wow.

07:09 In fact, three minutes ago I was not aware that I had this jersey.

07:14 I thought it was a mistake.

07:15 I thought there was another U23 ahead.

07:17 And so in fact I went back to the team's camper.

07:21 And then I was told, but no Cédrine, you have to go to the podium.

07:23 I was like what?

07:25 And yeah, it's a bit of a surprise of the day.

07:29 But I'm going to fight hard to keep it until the end.

07:33 Marta Lasch fought the hardest to create a break.

07:40 The Polish rider rewarded with the combativity award.

07:44 How long can Kopecky hold on to the maillot jaune?
