Kim Le Court-Pienaar (AG Insurance-Soudal) won stage 6 at the Tour de France Femmes in the sprint of a group of eight. Cédrine Kerbaol (EF Education-Oatly) finished second, Puck Pieterse (Fenix-Premier Tech) rounded out the podium in Tournon-sur-Rhône.
After the early breakaway of three riders was caught on the Col de Lalouvesc, French champion Célia Gery (FDJ United-Suez) attacked on the descent but did not get away. She tried again near the end of the descent, 34km from the finish, and got a gap.
Pieterse went on the chase and was joined by Elisa Longo Borghini (UAE Team L’IMAD), Kerbaol, Liane Lippert (Movistar), and Sarah Van Dam (Visma-Lease a Bike). Together, they bridged to Gery with 31km to go, and the six riders had a 30-second advantage over a very reduced peloton going into the last classified climb, the Côte de Boucieu-le-Roi.
Longo Borghini set the pace on the climb, keeping the gap stable. Riejanne Markus (Lidl-Trek) attacked from the peloton at the 15km mark, and Le Court-Pienaar immediately jumped across. As the riders in the front group looked at each other on the rise to the bonus sprint, the two chasers closed the gap, and Le Court-Pienaar went to the front of the group to win the bonus sprint.
Longo Borghini led the group down the descent, and when they were 32 seconds up with 5km to go, it was clear that the break would contest the stage. Le Court-Pienaar, Kerbaol, and Markus tried to get away in the final but were all brought back. On the finishing straight, Le Court-Pienaar launched her sprint with 300m to go, holding off Kerbaol and Pieterse to win.
“The race was crazy. I had a mechanical on the downhill before the [second-to-] last climb. I had to change bikes and I was really far [back], but my team was amazing. They brought me back slowly but surely to the bunch, and I got back on top of the [second-to]last climb, which was a really big effort. Then I just tried to stay patient and recover from this big effort,” the stage winner described how her team brought her back after a mechanical at the worst possible moment.
“Riejanne Markus and I bridged to the breakaway, and they were not really cooperating, which is obvious, but I was happy to just still try. I got a gap in the last few kilometres and Elisa closed me down, then when Riejanne Markus made an attack from the back. I knew it was going to happen because that’s the only way she can win a race like this.

“I had to close the gap myself and I was really, really dead, I was on the limit. I can’t believe I still had the legs to sprint. I was really this close to giving up, but I will never give up after the big effort my team did,” Le Court-Pienaar recounted the final.
It is the Mauritian champion’s second career Tour stage victory, and it makes up for the disappointment of the previous three stages.
“I think the team needed it. I’ve been really struggling since the TT day, and I think this really makes our Tour. Of course, we’ve got GC ambitions, but winning a stage in a Tour de France is very special. You know, people don’t really remember top 10, top 5 riders in the Tour, but they do remember stage winners,” she said.
First chase group forms
The 153.4km stage through from Montbrison to Tournon-sur-Rhône featured six classified climbs. After 25km of racing, the break formed on the second climb, the Côte de la Prunerie, as Loes Adegeest (Lidl-Trek), Nikola Nosková (Cofidis), and Katrine Aalerud (Uno-X Mobility) joined forces at the front of the race.
They built a gap of up to two minutes, and Nosková won three mountain sprints, taking seven points and reducing her deficit to Pieterse in the mountains classification. EF Education-Oatly and Fenix-Premier Tech did the chase work in the peloton, eventually bringing the gap down below a minute halfway through the stage.
Adegeest almost accidentally dropped her companions when accelerating out of a corner and into one of the many short, uncategorised climbs in the Ardèche. Nosková and Aalerud returned, but the Czech rider then lost contact further up the climb and was reeled in by the peloton with 67km to go, just as the long descent before the second-category Col de Lalouvesc began.
Le Court-Pienaar suffered a puncture on this descent, had to change bikes and was almost a minute behind the peloton at one point. Up front, Gery was already pushing the limits on her home roads but did not get away yet. Adegeest started the climb a few seconds ahead of Aalerud but was quickly caught by the Norwegian climber who took the lead.
World champion Magdeleine Vallières (EF Education-Oatly) was setting the pace in the peloton, catching the last two escapees just over 2km into the 8.6km climb. An attack by Paula Blasi (UAE Team L’IMAD) 3.4km from the top drew reactions from Gery, Antonia Niedermaier, Kasia Niewiadoma-Phinney (both Canyon-SRAM), Kerbaol and Longo Borghini, but when yellow jersey Marlen Reusser (Movistar) and Demi Vollering (FDJ United-Suez) closed the small gap after 400m, the race calmed down again.
Riders took on musettes and bottles in the feed zone on the last kilometre of the climb, Le Court-Pienaar returned to the peloton, and Pieterse crested the top to snatch five mountain points. Vollering took the lead after the top and through the village of Lalouvesc to set up Gery’s next downhill attack that was followed by Van Dam but closed down by Blasi.
Kerbaol then tried to get away, stringing the group out, but Reusser and Vollering eventually took control halfway down the descent. As the road flattened out, Visma-Lease a Bike came to the front, Pauline Ferrand-Prévot and Van Dam trading turns until the village of Saint-Felicien where Gery attacked again.
Front group of six
This time, the 20-year-old French Champion got a gap, using the twists and turns to her advantage. Pieterse, Kerbaol, Van Dam, Lippert, and Longo Borghini came together to form a chase group, bridging to Gery with 31km to go. In the peloton of 26 riders, 20 seconds behind, Niedermaier took up the chase, briefly reducing the gap to 14 seconds as Lippert and Gery did not take turns in the front group.
When Kerbaol and Longo Borghini led the break of six down the next technical descent, the gap increased to 30 seconds as Amanda Spratt (Lidl-Trek) could not keep the same pace in the peloton. Niedermaier took over from Spratt again on the Côte de Boucieu-le-Roi, reducing the group to 21 riders but not making inroads on the front group as Longo Borghini set a steady but fast pace up front.
The break was 29 seconds ahead at the top of the climb with 15.9km to go, and Kerbaol attacked immediately after, but Longo Borghini quickly closed her down on the slightly downhill false flat. As nobody in the peloton felt responsible for setting the pace, the gap increased to almost 40 seconds, and Markus took the opportunity to attack. Le Court-Pienaar went after her, as did Nienke Vinke (SD Worx-Protime), but only the Mauritian champion could bridge across to Markus before the gap was too big.
They worked together to chase down the front group where Gery and Lippert were still sitting on at the back. At the 10km mark, the chasers were 12 seconds behind, the remnants of the peloton trailing by 52 seconds. As the front group lost all cooperation, Le Court-Pienaar and Markus got in touch 500m before the bonus sprint which Le Court-Pienaar promptly won.
Final selection
Longo Borghini led the new front group down the descent towards Tournon-sur-Rhône until the attacks started in the last 5km. Le Court-Pienaar was the first to try with 4.5km to go and quickly got a gap before the Italian champion took up the chase without any help, closing the gap 2.7km from the line.
Then it was Kerbaol who went from the back of the group but had Le Court-Pienaar on her wheel right away. Markus had more success, getting away and prompting Longo Borghini to chase, closing the Dutchwoman down with 1.4km to go. As everyone started looking at each other, Markus tried again with the flamme rouge in sight and pulled away, with Le Court-Pienaar getting out of the saddle to start the chase.
The Mauritian Champion reeled in Markus with 600 metres to go but wisely stayed on her wheel until the 300m mark where Le Court-Pienaar launched her sprint. Pieterse pulled alongside her on the left side but faltered on the final 150 metres, and Kerbaol came around on the right side to snatch second place as Le Court-Pienaar posted up to celebrate her victory.

Kim Le Court-Pienaar (AG Insurance-Soudal) won stage 6 at the Tour de France Femmes in the sprint of a group of eight. Cédrine Kerbaol (EF Education-Oatly) finished second, Puck Pieterse (Fenix-Premier Tech) rounded out the podium in Tournon-sur-Rhône.
After the early breakaway of three riders was caught on the Col de Lalouvesc, French champion Célia Gery (FDJ United-Suez) attacked on the descent but did not get away. She tried again near the end of the descent, 34km from the finish, and got a gap.
Pieterse went on the chase and was joined by Elisa Longo Borghini (UAE Team L’IMAD), Kerbaol, Liane Lippert (Movistar), and Sarah Van Dam (Visma-Lease a Bike). Together, they bridged to Gery with 31km to go, and the six riders had a 30-second advantage over a very reduced peloton going into the last classified climb, the Côte de Boucieu-le-Roi.
Longo Borghini set the pace on the climb, keeping the gap stable. Riejanne Markus (Lidl-Trek) attacked from the peloton at the 15km mark, and Le Court-Pienaar immediately jumped across. As the riders in the front group looked at each other on the rise to the bonus sprint, the two chasers closed the gap, and Le Court-Pienaar went to the front of the group to win the bonus sprint.
Longo Borghini led the group down the descent, and when they were 32 seconds up with 5km to go, it was clear that the break would contest the stage. Le Court-Pienaar, Kerbaol, and Markus tried to get away in the final but were all brought back. On the finishing straight, Le Court-Pienaar launched her sprint with 300m to go, holding off Kerbaol and Pieterse to win.
“The race was crazy. I had a mechanical on the downhill before the [second-to-] last climb. I had to change bikes and I was really far [back], but my team was amazing. They brought me back slowly but surely to the bunch, and I got back on top of the [second-to]last climb, which was a really big effort. Then I just tried to stay patient and recover from this big effort,” the stage winner described how her team brought her back after a mechanical at the worst possible moment.
“Riejanne Markus and I bridged to the breakaway, and they were not really cooperating, which is obvious, but I was happy to just still try. I got a gap in the last few kilometres and Elisa closed me down, then when Riejanne Markus made an attack from the back. I knew it was going to happen because that’s the only way she can win a race like this.

“I had to close the gap myself and I was really, really dead, I was on the limit. I can’t believe I still had the legs to sprint. I was really this close to giving up, but I will never give up after the big effort my team did,” Le Court-Pienaar recounted the final.
It is the Mauritian champion’s second career Tour stage victory, and it makes up for the disappointment of the previous three stages.
“I think the team needed it. I’ve been really struggling since the TT day, and I think this really makes our Tour. Of course, we’ve got GC ambitions, but winning a stage in a Tour de France is very special. You know, people don’t really remember top 10, top 5 riders in the Tour, but they do remember stage winners,” she said.
First chase group forms
The 153.4km stage through from Montbrison to Tournon-sur-Rhône featured six classified climbs. After 25km of racing, the break formed on the second climb, the Côte de la Prunerie, as Loes Adegeest (Lidl-Trek), Nikola Nosková (Cofidis), and Katrine Aalerud (Uno-X Mobility) joined forces at the front of the race.
They built a gap of up to two minutes, and Nosková won three mountain sprints, taking seven points and reducing her deficit to Pieterse in the mountains classification. EF Education-Oatly and Fenix-Premier Tech did the chase work in the peloton, eventually bringing the gap down below a minute halfway through the stage.
Adegeest almost accidentally dropped her companions when accelerating out of a corner and into one of the many short, uncategorised climbs in the Ardèche. Nosková and Aalerud returned, but the Czech rider then lost contact further up the climb and was reeled in by the peloton with 67km to go, just as the long descent before the second-category Col de Lalouvesc began.
Le Court-Pienaar suffered a puncture on this descent, had to change bikes and was almost a minute behind the peloton at one point. Up front, Gery was already pushing the limits on her home roads but did not get away yet. Adegeest started the climb a few seconds ahead of Aalerud but was quickly caught by the Norwegian climber who took the lead.
World champion Magdeleine Vallières (EF Education-Oatly) was setting the pace in the peloton, catching the last two escapees just over 2km into the 8.6km climb. An attack by Paula Blasi (UAE Team L’IMAD) 3.4km from the top drew reactions from Gery, Antonia Niedermaier, Kasia Niewiadoma-Phinney (both Canyon-SRAM), Kerbaol and Longo Borghini, but when yellow jersey Marlen Reusser (Movistar) and Demi Vollering (FDJ United-Suez) closed the small gap after 400m, the race calmed down again.
Riders took on musettes and bottles in the feed zone on the last kilometre of the climb, Le Court-Pienaar returned to the peloton, and Pieterse crested the top to snatch five mountain points. Vollering took the lead after the top and through the village of Lalouvesc to set up Gery’s next downhill attack that was followed by Van Dam but closed down by Blasi.
Kerbaol then tried to get away, stringing the group out, but Reusser and Vollering eventually took control halfway down the descent. As the road flattened out, Visma-Lease a Bike came to the front, Pauline Ferrand-Prévot and Van Dam trading turns until the village of Saint-Felicien where Gery attacked again.
Front group of six
This time, the 20-year-old French Champion got a gap, using the twists and turns to her advantage. Pieterse, Kerbaol, Van Dam, Lippert, and Longo Borghini came together to form a chase group, bridging to Gery with 31km to go. In the peloton of 26 riders, 20 seconds behind, Niedermaier took up the chase, briefly reducing the gap to 14 seconds as Lippert and Gery did not take turns in the front group.
When Kerbaol and Longo Borghini led the break of six down the next technical descent, the gap increased to 30 seconds as Amanda Spratt (Lidl-Trek) could not keep the same pace in the peloton. Niedermaier took over from Spratt again on the Côte de Boucieu-le-Roi, reducing the group to 21 riders but not making inroads on the front group as Longo Borghini set a steady but fast pace up front.
The break was 29 seconds ahead at the top of the climb with 15.9km to go, and Kerbaol attacked immediately after, but Longo Borghini quickly closed her down on the slightly downhill false flat. As nobody in the peloton felt responsible for setting the pace, the gap increased to almost 40 seconds, and Markus took the opportunity to attack. Le Court-Pienaar went after her, as did Nienke Vinke (SD Worx-Protime), but only the Mauritian champion could bridge across to Markus before the gap was too big.
They worked together to chase down the front group where Gery and Lippert were still sitting on at the back. At the 10km mark, the chasers were 12 seconds behind, the remnants of the peloton trailing by 52 seconds. As the front group lost all cooperation, Le Court-Pienaar and Markus got in touch 500m before the bonus sprint which Le Court-Pienaar promptly won.
Final selection
Longo Borghini led the new front group down the descent towards Tournon-sur-Rhône until the attacks started in the last 5km. Le Court-Pienaar was the first to try with 4.5km to go and quickly got a gap before the Italian champion took up the chase without any help, closing the gap 2.7km from the line.
Then it was Kerbaol who went from the back of the group but had Le Court-Pienaar on her wheel right away. Markus had more success, getting away and prompting Longo Borghini to chase, closing the Dutchwoman down with 1.4km to go. As everyone started looking at each other, Markus tried again with the flamme rouge in sight and pulled away, with Le Court-Pienaar getting out of the saddle to start the chase.
The Mauritian Champion reeled in Markus with 600 metres to go but wisely stayed on her wheel until the 300m mark where Le Court-Pienaar launched her sprint. Pieterse pulled alongside her on the left side but faltered on the final 150 metres, and Kerbaol came around on the right side to snatch second place as Le Court-Pienaar posted up to celebrate her victory.

Kim Le Court-Pienaar (AG Insurance-Soudal) won stage 6 at the Tour de France Femmes in the sprint of a group of eight. Cédrine Kerbaol (EF Education-Oatly) finished second, Puck Pieterse (Fenix-Premier Tech) rounded out the podium in Tournon-sur-Rhône.
After the early breakaway of three riders was caught on the Col de Lalouvesc, French champion Célia Gery (FDJ United-Suez) attacked on the descent but did not get away. She tried again near the end of the descent, 34km from the finish, and got a gap.
Pieterse went on the chase and was joined by Elisa Longo Borghini (UAE Team L’IMAD), Kerbaol, Liane Lippert (Movistar), and Sarah Van Dam (Visma-Lease a Bike). Together, they bridged to Gery with 31km to go, and the six riders had a 30-second advantage over a very reduced peloton going into the last classified climb, the Côte de Boucieu-le-Roi.
Longo Borghini set the pace on the climb, keeping the gap stable. Riejanne Markus (Lidl-Trek) attacked from the peloton at the 15km mark, and Le Court-Pienaar immediately jumped across. As the riders in the front group looked at each other on the rise to the bonus sprint, the two chasers closed the gap, and Le Court-Pienaar went to the front of the group to win the bonus sprint.
Longo Borghini led the group down the descent, and when they were 32 seconds up with 5km to go, it was clear that the break would contest the stage. Le Court-Pienaar, Kerbaol, and Markus tried to get away in the final but were all brought back. On the finishing straight, Le Court-Pienaar launched her sprint with 300m to go, holding off Kerbaol and Pieterse to win.
“The race was crazy. I had a mechanical on the downhill before the [second-to-] last climb. I had to change bikes and I was really far [back], but my team was amazing. They brought me back slowly but surely to the bunch, and I got back on top of the [second-to]last climb, which was a really big effort. Then I just tried to stay patient and recover from this big effort,” the stage winner described how her team brought her back after a mechanical at the worst possible moment.
“Riejanne Markus and I bridged to the breakaway, and they were not really cooperating, which is obvious, but I was happy to just still try. I got a gap in the last few kilometres and Elisa closed me down, then when Riejanne Markus made an attack from the back. I knew it was going to happen because that’s the only way she can win a race like this.

“I had to close the gap myself and I was really, really dead, I was on the limit. I can’t believe I still had the legs to sprint. I was really this close to giving up, but I will never give up after the big effort my team did,” Le Court-Pienaar recounted the final.
It is the Mauritian champion’s second career Tour stage victory, and it makes up for the disappointment of the previous three stages.
“I think the team needed it. I’ve been really struggling since the TT day, and I think this really makes our Tour. Of course, we’ve got GC ambitions, but winning a stage in a Tour de France is very special. You know, people don’t really remember top 10, top 5 riders in the Tour, but they do remember stage winners,” she said.
First chase group forms
The 153.4km stage through from Montbrison to Tournon-sur-Rhône featured six classified climbs. After 25km of racing, the break formed on the second climb, the Côte de la Prunerie, as Loes Adegeest (Lidl-Trek), Nikola Nosková (Cofidis), and Katrine Aalerud (Uno-X Mobility) joined forces at the front of the race.
They built a gap of up to two minutes, and Nosková won three mountain sprints, taking seven points and reducing her deficit to Pieterse in the mountains classification. EF Education-Oatly and Fenix-Premier Tech did the chase work in the peloton, eventually bringing the gap down below a minute halfway through the stage.
Adegeest almost accidentally dropped her companions when accelerating out of a corner and into one of the many short, uncategorised climbs in the Ardèche. Nosková and Aalerud returned, but the Czech rider then lost contact further up the climb and was reeled in by the peloton with 67km to go, just as the long descent before the second-category Col de Lalouvesc began.
Le Court-Pienaar suffered a puncture on this descent, had to change bikes and was almost a minute behind the peloton at one point. Up front, Gery was already pushing the limits on her home roads but did not get away yet. Adegeest started the climb a few seconds ahead of Aalerud but was quickly caught by the Norwegian climber who took the lead.
World champion Magdeleine Vallières (EF Education-Oatly) was setting the pace in the peloton, catching the last two escapees just over 2km into the 8.6km climb. An attack by Paula Blasi (UAE Team L’IMAD) 3.4km from the top drew reactions from Gery, Antonia Niedermaier, Kasia Niewiadoma-Phinney (both Canyon-SRAM), Kerbaol and Longo Borghini, but when yellow jersey Marlen Reusser (Movistar) and Demi Vollering (FDJ United-Suez) closed the small gap after 400m, the race calmed down again.
Riders took on musettes and bottles in the feed zone on the last kilometre of the climb, Le Court-Pienaar returned to the peloton, and Pieterse crested the top to snatch five mountain points. Vollering took the lead after the top and through the village of Lalouvesc to set up Gery’s next downhill attack that was followed by Van Dam but closed down by Blasi.
Kerbaol then tried to get away, stringing the group out, but Reusser and Vollering eventually took control halfway down the descent. As the road flattened out, Visma-Lease a Bike came to the front, Pauline Ferrand-Prévot and Van Dam trading turns until the village of Saint-Felicien where Gery attacked again.
Front group of six
This time, the 20-year-old French Champion got a gap, using the twists and turns to her advantage. Pieterse, Kerbaol, Van Dam, Lippert, and Longo Borghini came together to form a chase group, bridging to Gery with 31km to go. In the peloton of 26 riders, 20 seconds behind, Niedermaier took up the chase, briefly reducing the gap to 14 seconds as Lippert and Gery did not take turns in the front group.
When Kerbaol and Longo Borghini led the break of six down the next technical descent, the gap increased to 30 seconds as Amanda Spratt (Lidl-Trek) could not keep the same pace in the peloton. Niedermaier took over from Spratt again on the Côte de Boucieu-le-Roi, reducing the group to 21 riders but not making inroads on the front group as Longo Borghini set a steady but fast pace up front.
The break was 29 seconds ahead at the top of the climb with 15.9km to go, and Kerbaol attacked immediately after, but Longo Borghini quickly closed her down on the slightly downhill false flat. As nobody in the peloton felt responsible for setting the pace, the gap increased to almost 40 seconds, and Markus took the opportunity to attack. Le Court-Pienaar went after her, as did Nienke Vinke (SD Worx-Protime), but only the Mauritian champion could bridge across to Markus before the gap was too big.
They worked together to chase down the front group where Gery and Lippert were still sitting on at the back. At the 10km mark, the chasers were 12 seconds behind, the remnants of the peloton trailing by 52 seconds. As the front group lost all cooperation, Le Court-Pienaar and Markus got in touch 500m before the bonus sprint which Le Court-Pienaar promptly won.
Final selection
Longo Borghini led the new front group down the descent towards Tournon-sur-Rhône until the attacks started in the last 5km. Le Court-Pienaar was the first to try with 4.5km to go and quickly got a gap before the Italian champion took up the chase without any help, closing the gap 2.7km from the line.
Then it was Kerbaol who went from the back of the group but had Le Court-Pienaar on her wheel right away. Markus had more success, getting away and prompting Longo Borghini to chase, closing the Dutchwoman down with 1.4km to go. As everyone started looking at each other, Markus tried again with the flamme rouge in sight and pulled away, with Le Court-Pienaar getting out of the saddle to start the chase.
The Mauritian Champion reeled in Markus with 600 metres to go but wisely stayed on her wheel until the 300m mark where Le Court-Pienaar launched her sprint. Pieterse pulled alongside her on the left side but faltered on the final 150 metres, and Kerbaol came around on the right side to snatch second place as Le Court-Pienaar posted up to celebrate her victory.
