Poland's Katarzyna Niewiadoma won for the first time of her career the Tour de France women.
A completely crazy finale! At the end of a final epic stage, it was Katarzyna Niewiadoma (Canyon//SRAM Racing) who won this Tour de France 2024 while the Polish rider was distanced very quickly in this stage, but held on to finally win this Tour by 4 seconds. “On the descent of Glandon, I was able to pull myself together, to get my health back. I was lucky to have Lucinda Brand, I think we have to say a big thank you to Lidl-Trek because they did a great job for us. In Alpe d'Huez I knew I just had to set my pace and then give it my all in the last five kilometres and close the gap as much as possible. To be honest I stopped believing again. On the radio, they were screaming so much in the last two kilometers. To be honest, I really had a bad time on the last climb. I hated everything. And when I reached the finish line and I knew I had won the Tour de France, it was crazy! It's overwhelming because there are so many people I thank, starting with my husband, my family, the whole team, my coach – who worked so hard to prepare me for this – and my friends. This victory is dedicated to all the people who contributed to my victory!”
Big disappointment on the other hand for Demi Vollering who tried everything in this last stage that she won. “The Yellow Jersey was firmly on my shoulders. Then there was this stupid fall (during the 5th stage), which in the end made me lose. It is very painful to know now that what I did today was not enough. Normally, I would have been able to do it. But my back hurt a lot today. It was a big fight against myself in Alpe d'Huez. I tried to fight with everything I had. I know there is an event in the Netherlands where many people are fighting for a charitable cause, the one for cancer research. Today I thought about that. I couldn't give up, so I did, but it wasn't enough. I won two stages, finished 2nd once and 3rd once. I had a very good Tour de France. Only one day was a bad day."
