Marianne Vos won the opening stage of the Tour de France Femmes and secured the yellow jersey on Côte de Cadoudal. Her teammate, Pauline Ferrand-Prévot, made a strong attempt for victory but finished third. Vos's win marks her 258th career victory, and it is the first for her and Visma team since the inaugural Tour de France Femmes in 2022. Vos expressed the special nature of wearing the yellow jersey and is optimistic about continuing her success in the upcoming stages, particularly in Brittany.
"Of course, wearing the yellow jersey is something really special. It was something I didn't really think about going into the stage."
"Both me and Pauline wanted to do really well. When Pauline went, that was a really good move, and she nearly made it, but I followed Kim Le Court and taking the win is a fantastic feeling."
