Tour de France Femmes 2026: stage one test for riders around Lausanne – live

Lorena Wiebes claimed the first yellow jersey of the 2026 Tour de France Femmes, securing her sixth career stage win by outsprinting Kim Le Court and Demi Vollering in Lausanne. This follows the TdF Femmes' growth in popularity since its 2022 relaunch, featuring diverse winners including Pauline Ferrand-Prévot. Meanwhile, Wiebes previously won the 2026 women’s Giro opening stage in May, though the UCI disqualified her due to an illegal bike weight, prompting potential legal action from her team.
