AI Summary

The 2026 Tour de France Femmes continues with stage two from Aigle to Geneva, featuring a 147.9km route that, while officially flat, includes five categorized climbs. With 40km remaining before the final climb, a bunch sprint is anticipated, which could favor race leader Lorena Wiebes.

Cédrine Kerbaol leads the early climbs, reaching the top of Côte de Chexbres first, followed by Puck Pieterse and Sara Casasola.

Wiebes, who secured the first yellow jersey in stage one, expressed her excitement post-victory:

The team worked super hard today. When Demi Vollering attacked, I knew I had to follow. It was a long sprint, but I’m super happy.

As the stage unfolds, Wiebes’ competitors, including Kim Le Court and Demi Vollering, are poised to challenge her dominance. The picturesque route, passing the UCI headquarters and along Lake Geneva, adds an aesthetic backdrop to the grueling race.

The neutralized start is set for 1:20 PM local time, with racing beginning shortly thereafter. Fans eagerly await to see if Wiebes can claim another victory today.
