00:00 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:03 Here goes the attack.
00:07 Demi Vollering has decided enough is enough.
00:10 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:14 The defending champion of the Tour de France,
00:16 Famavic Zwift, is absolutely cracking right now.
00:19 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:23 She opens up the gap.
00:25 One meter, two meters, three meters.
00:27 And Kashimi Wiodoma has no answer right now.
00:30 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:37 It has been a stunning performance.
00:41 How does it feel to wear this amazing yellow jersey?
00:43 I saw that already a lot of times in my dreams, of course.
00:46 But to wear it now in real life feels really good.
00:50 Demi was so strong today that these 20 seconds were just,
00:53 yeah, bullshit.
00:55 [LAUGHS]
00:56 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:57 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:04 I know.
01:07 How confident you are to keep this second place?
01:10 Not sure, actually.
01:12 To be honest, TT isn't my strongest sport.
01:16 I just hope to ride it safe and to do my best.
01:20 And we will see tomorrow.
01:23 The cherry on the cake would be a victory of Marleen
01:26 tomorrow on the TT?
01:27 Yes.
01:28 Yes, that will be amazing.
01:29 If she can win the TT, that's, of course, nice.
01:32 Then we have a really, really good Tour de France,
01:35 Fam, so far.
01:35 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:43 Whoops, Demi Vollering absolutely finished.
01:46 She has ridden to the end of capability.
01:49 What a race.
01:51 The race of truth, a 22.6 kilometer time trial
01:55 starting and finishing in Pau to decide the yellow jersey.
01:58 A mainly flat route, yet a hill in the middle of the course
02:01 could disrupt one's rhythm.
02:02 The main danger, rainfall, leaving some damp patches.
02:07 Marjolijn van Geloof opening the eighth and final stage,
02:10 yet the first ever under-23 TT champion,
02:14 Vittoria Guadagini, set the benchmark time,
02:16 a show of strength after the Italian fractured
02:19 her pelvis back in April.
02:21 Great performance to go to the top of the leaderboard.
02:26 A time of 30 minutes, 36 seconds,
02:28 but it looked under threat.
02:29 Britain Anna Henderson with the fastest intermediate time.
02:33 The Jumbo Visma rider couldn't maintain the pace,
02:36 almost 16 seconds slower than her FDJ, Suez rival.
02:41 Anna Henderson, the second fastest time.
02:45 Six time TT national champion, Audrey Cordon-Rigaud,
02:48 set off at some pace.
02:50 French rider flying past Elise Chaby
02:52 and ahead of Henderson's time,
02:54 but the French rider couldn't match the output
02:56 of Australian champion Grace Brown.
02:59 17 minutes, five seconds,
03:01 but that was just when European Krono champion
03:03 Marlene Rosa set off.
03:05 The Swiss the best active in the world at the discipline,
03:08 she had to negotiate the UAE car,
03:11 but still 27 seconds ahead at the halfway stage.
03:14 Grace Brown ending Guadagini's long stint
03:17 as the virtual leader,
03:19 yet that joy was short lived.
03:21 Marlene Rosa, European champion twice
03:25 on the podium of the World Championships,
03:27 absolutely smashes the time of Grace Brown.
03:30 Searing Swiss speed,
03:32 surely setting the stage for success.
03:34 Chance to cool down, 29 minutes, 15 seconds,
03:38 the time to beat.
03:39 Her teammate meanwhile, ready to ride in pursuit,
03:43 Lotte Capecchi with the overall podium in sight,
03:46 on her meet Van Vleuten with only seven seconds in hand,
03:49 second place, Kasia Nieuwe Adoma,
03:52 a further 45 ahead.
03:54 For the first time in yellow,
03:55 following and ready to back up the feet
03:57 of conquering the Col du Tourmalet,
03:59 making it a round four unscathed,
04:01 she'd be 2023's golden girl.
04:04 Ashley Moolman-Pasio with a fine tour
04:07 but the South African slipped to sixth overall.
04:11 Juliet Labus giving the inspiration
04:13 for another top five finish.
04:15 - Come on, to the line, to the line, to the line.
04:17 Up, up, up, up, up, up, up, up, up, up, up, up, up.
04:19 Everything, come on, come on, come on, come on.
04:21 Every second counts.
04:23 - Olympic TT champion Van Vleuten struggled,
04:25 unable to find the form that made her a giant of the sport.
04:29 She was already 30 seconds down on Capecchi
04:32 at the intermediate time.
04:34 The green jersey smashed the final climb
04:40 in another powerful display.
04:42 Brilliant Belgian just 36 seconds from Reuss' time.
04:46 Third on the stage consistently,
04:47 the most dazzling rider of the Tour.
04:49 - The green jersey of the Tour de France,
04:51 Van Averckt Zwift with an exceptional time trial.
04:56 - Van Vleuten couldn't hit back,
04:58 relinquishing her title yesterday on the Col du Tourmalet
05:01 and now her GC position in Pau,
05:03 nearly a minute down on the top three.
05:05 Niawa Douma battling hard to maintain her GC position,
05:10 not her favourite discipline, but home in ninth,
05:13 clocking the same time as Capecchi.
05:15 Yet the SD Works rider confirmed second overall,
05:19 just 21 hundredths of a second ahead of Niawa Douma,
05:22 following wanting to confirm her title success in style,
05:26 and she did just that.
05:27 - The win of this time trial is gonna go
05:31 to her team mate Marlon Reuss,
05:33 wins the final stage of the Tour de France,
05:35 Van Averckt Zwift, but now the queen of this race,
05:40 the winner of the Tour de France, Van Averckt Zwift,
05:43 is Damie Vollering, she finishes second on the day.
05:47 (crowd applauding)
05:50 (dramatic music)
05:54 (crowd applauding)
05:57 - Marlon Reuss, victorious in the Tour's first time trial,
06:14 leading an SD Works one, two, three,
06:17 the Dutch team winning half of the eight stages.
06:22 The winner of the 2023 Tour de France femme avec Zwift,
06:26 Damie Vollering, second a year ago,
06:28 as well as at this year's La Vuelta Femenina,
06:31 finally a Grand Tour champion.
06:33 Shoulder to shoulder with Capecchi and Niawa Douma,
06:36 as Van Vleuten slipped off the podium.
06:38 - I think I still can, again,
06:45 still not can believe it, of course I worked hard, but,
06:50 you know,
06:50 it's just not only working hard, you know,
06:55 you have a dream and you work really hard for it,
06:58 but it's believing in it and, yeah,
07:02 I feel like everything comes together and, yeah,
07:07 it's just an amazing season for me.
07:09 - Lotte Capecchi was in yellow for six days,
07:16 but was green ever since she broke clear in one stage one,
07:20 just like Vollering, second time lucky,
07:23 winning the points category comfortably
07:26 ahead of Moulman Passiot.
07:27 Niawa Douma, a deserving queen of the mountain
07:33 for her swashbuckling performance
07:35 up the Col de Tourmalet.
07:36 The Canyon SRAM climber,
07:39 with four points on second place, Yara Castellain.
07:44 Cédrine Cabot, the standout in the best youngster field.
07:48 In white, and three minutes in hand,
07:53 the Breton also finished 12th overall.
07:56 What a tour for Castellain and Fenix de Koenig,
08:00 the most combative rider of the week.
08:03 But the woman of the hour, Demi Vollering,
08:08 finally getting her hands on the Tour de France
08:10 Fama Vix Swift trophy.
08:12 The 26-year-old will take some beating
08:14 as she continues to dominate the women's pro circuit.
08:18 (upbeat music)
08:21 (logo thuds)
