00:00Hello, hello, hello! Hi! Hello!
00:15Hi Mariana, first day in yellow, but full yellow.
00:34Yeah, well, it's something special, so yeah, I'm going to enjoy.
00:38Yesterday was amazing, and it's great we have another day in Brittany.
00:42Pauline Frembromeu is driving away, and is now looking for the yellow jersey of the Tour de France.
00:48What an attack!
00:49Pauline took a gap at five, four hundred meters to go, and then I saw Kim LeCourt coming.
00:55Is she going to get to the line? Kim LeCourt is coming back at a very, very quick.
01:00I didn't know if Pauline was still hanging in for the finish, so I went with her.
01:07Here comes Mariana Vos. Mariana Vos takes the first place.
01:11I'm so happy with the team effort, and we could make it.
01:15Pauline!
01:17Oh, I'm so proud of you.
01:20Pauline, congratulations for the stage of yesterday. What are your ambitions for today?
01:24Well, the same thing for me, not losing time in general, and trying to find victory with Mariana.
01:29You announced that you wanted to win the Tour in three years. Can it be since this year?
01:34I think that this year, I'm mostly here to learn. In a first time, discover the Tour de France, and work together to get the best results possible.
01:44For 10 years ago, it was the total idol. Today, it's a co-equipier, but it's still a very, very beautiful example.
01:52Both by her palmarès, but also by her way to lead her career.
01:56She was champion of the world, she was champion of the Olympics, she won everything in VTT.
02:01Pauline, it's a great match.
02:02Paris-Roubaix, eight months after her Olympic title at Paris!
02:06Are you surprised when she won at Roubaix?
02:09No.
02:10We want to see how far we can bring Pauline and help Pauline into a good general classification.
02:17Yeah, and that's of course a fantastic goal to have as a team.
02:22Today is going to be really tricky, I think. A lot of twisty turning, small roads, up-down, steep climbs.
02:31We have some ideas to do today, to try to take the yellow, but yesterday it was really good.
02:39It was really a bad heart attack, but we're going to do what we can do today.
02:52Traveling to the end of the earth for this Finisterre route, 110 kilometres to Camper,
02:57four category climbs for the punchers to get their teeth into.
03:01Charlotte Cole, not on the start line today.
03:04She didn't abandon yesterday's race, made it to the finish line, but it's not on the start line for today's race.
03:11And we've got a couple of riders on the attack, and those riders are Franzi Koch and Aude Biannik.
03:17Franzi Koch, who was the most combative rider of yesterday.
03:22Two riders out, but one competitor living the dream of the Tour de France,
03:28starting from her home time of Brest, a special day for Cédrine Cabal.
03:32Meanwhile, the front two would be the first over the line, before the rest fought it out at the intermediate sprint.
03:38Franzi Koch on the front, looking for these 25 points.
03:44Marianna Vos starts her sprint with Lorena Wiebes.
03:47They go to the middle of the road now.
03:49Vos leads out.
03:50She's looking very, very quick.
03:52Marianna Vos going shoulder to shoulder with Lorena Wiebes.
03:57And it was the SD Works European champion who took two extra points over Visma's Vos.
04:03Now attention's turn to the first climb, and with Queen of the Mountain points on offer,
04:07no surprise who kicked off the front, but not without competition.
04:12Shabby now pushes on, so she's in that polka-dot jersey.
04:16Obviously has decided now that she wants to secure this jersey.
04:20Shmulders flat out.
04:25That's a fantastic sprint.
04:27Silke Shmulders goes over the top and takes the three points.
04:36These two riders have continued though.
04:3819 seconds for Shabby and Silke Shmulders.
04:43The ascent splintered the peloton.
04:45Lotta Kopecki distanced.
04:46Pre-tour, the world champion ruled out a GC challenge
04:49after an injury-blighted campaign.
04:51And that's how it played out, losing nearly three minutes on the day.
04:54Second in the Queen of the Mountains category this morning,
04:57Maude Reinbeck bridged across to the escapades.
05:01The trio would mass a minute gap heading into the second climb of the day.
05:05Yet Reinbeck struggled as Shmulders and Shabby fought it out for points.
05:09The Swiss this time finding a late surge for two additional points.
05:19Reimbeck left behind, but the breakaway pairs gap was tumbling under increased peloton pressure.
05:27Movistar and Visma leading the way, willing to take risks.
05:30Still fast downhill.
05:32They really are faster through the corners.
05:40A fourth category climb, two points and one point on offer.
05:44Shabby checks over her shoulder to see what the situation is behind.
05:48What problem here for Kim La Courte?
05:52A heart-stopping mechanical, but La Courte shoved back into contention for the Maille-Jean by her team-mate.
05:58The peloton closing in as the race entered the final circuit.
06:02Naeva Skibane replacing Reinbeck at the front.
06:06Shabby earning points to secure her jersey for another stage before this first look at the finish.
06:14Then activity off the front of the peloton.
06:18Big acceleration by cashier Niwedoma and maybe this is just a big attack.
06:23She goes clean out. Pauline Fran Prevaux goes with her.
06:27Defending champion Niwedoma Finney's kick covered by Ferran Prevaux.
06:31A short-lived counter, but it encouraged copycats.
06:34Rihanna Marcus of Lidltrek went next.
06:37It was double dutch in the leading quartet, but any hopes of fighting for the stage dashed.
06:42Cam appeared to have been re-established only for a plucky attack from the oldest in the field.
06:47Mavi Garcia, without a Grand Tour victory, decided to roll the dice with 10k to go.
06:53Mavi Garcia on the move.
06:56She's five minutes and one second down.
06:58She lost time yesterday being held up by that crash.
07:02A small gap. Could she hold off a star-studded peloton past the Flamme Rouge?
07:07Hope for a shock remained.
07:08Would it be pain in Spain or a major Mallorcan shock?
07:13400m to go and Mavi Garcia has not been caught yet.
07:18She still has an advantage.
07:20Can Garcia get to the finish line and win stage two of the Tour de France for Mavic Swift?
07:26She's still there, but here comes Pauline Fran Prevaux.
07:29And Lorena Wiebis starts the sprint.
07:32Wiebis trying to go and catch her.
07:34Mavi Garcia checks over her shoulder.
07:37It's a win for Mavi Garcia of Livalula Jayco.
07:49Oh my God!
07:50Excuse me.
07:51We're happy.
07:52We're happy.
07:53We're happy.
07:54We're happy.
07:55It's like a dream.
07:56We're talking about your emotional life.
07:58We're happy.
07:59I'm not going to believe it yet.
08:00I'm not going to believe it yet.
08:01I'm not going to believe it at any point until I've never been at 5 meters from the goal.
08:06I've been turning and seen that they haven't come.
08:08That's when I really believed it was going.
08:11I've been doing this for a long time and it's time to think about retiring.
08:16I was already thinking about retiring.
08:17I was already thinking about what to do.
08:19I didn't have to go very well this year, but...
08:21The 41-year-old's first drawn to her victory.
08:34Without doubt, Garcia's biggest win of her career.
08:38Lorena Wiebes led home the big names but couldn't catch the Spaniard
08:42who secured Liv Alula Jayco's first win of the season and ever on the tour.
08:47But third on the stage put Kim LeCourt into yellow.
08:51The Mauritius champion just the eighth woman to have donned the famous jersey.
08:55Bonus seconds meaning a dead heat with Vos but count back favouring LeCourt.
09:01Mariana Vos may have lost the leader's jersey but she still had her green one.
09:07The Visma rider four points clear of compatriot Vibas.
09:11Shabby herself held on to the polka dots and bonus seconds means she's just 30 seconds from yellow.
09:20The Swiss rider with four points over brake partner, Schmolders.
09:24Julie Bego still in white, the Covidist rider 22 seconds ahead of Nenka Vinka,
09:34second for Marion Brunel, up to the podium.
09:38After favouring the boxers and escape artists, we depart Brittany for the Paix de la Loire
09:42where the sprinters aim to reign supreme.
