You want GC drama. You want to see who has the legs in the mountains and who gambles on a breakaway.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Start with Demi Vollering (FDJ-SUEZ). After losing last year\u2019s yellow jersey by just four seconds, she\u2019s back with something to prove. She\u2019s dominated nearly every major stage race in the past two seasons, Strade Bianche, Itzulia Women, and La Vuelta, and arrives in France as the clear favourite. The only question is: can she peak at the right moment?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also watch: Marlen Reusser (Movistar). One of the best time trialists in the world, she\u2019s climbing better than ever in 2025. She nearly matched Vollering at the Vuelta and Tour de Suisse and could be a real threat if she holds form over the full week.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is the year where small gaps could decide the GC again \u2014 don\u2019t blink.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>The Grit-Lover<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;I love the riders who never give up.&#8221;<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You\u2019ll want to root for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.welovecycling.com\/wide\/2024\/08\/19\/niewiadoma-wins-tour-de-france-femmes-avec-zwift\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Kasia Niewiadoma Phinney<\/a> (Canyon\/\/SRAM), last year\u2019s winner and queen of consistency. She doesn\u2019t win often, but she\u2019s always in the mix and always fighting. Her Tour win last year wasn\u2019t flashy; it was resilient, steady, and tactical. That four-second margin? All guts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Kasia\u2019s form in 2025 has been solid but not spectacular. No huge wins, but a Polish national title and a podium at Tour de Suisse show she\u2019s still got the legs. The yellow jersey may come down to how well she defends on the toughest climbs. Expect her to be right there, hanging on, again and again.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also watch: Elisa Longo Borghini (UAE Team ADQ). She just won her second Giro d\u2019Italia with a perfectly timed move on the queen stage. She rarely has an off day and could surprise with her consistency and smart tactics over the full week.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" style=\"background: #FFF; border: 0; border-radius: 3px; box-shadow: 0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width: 540px; min-width: 326px; padding: 0; width: calc(100% - 2px);\" data-instgrm-captioned=\"\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DMIw3A1IQsU\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\">\n<div style=\"padding: 16px;\">\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div style=\"display: flex; flex-direction: row; align-items: center;\">\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; flex-grow: 0; height: 40px; margin-right: 14px; width: 40px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: flex; flex-direction: column; flex-grow: 1; justify-content: center;\">\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px; width: 100px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; width: 60px;\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"padding: 19% 0;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; height: 50px; margin: 0 auto 12px; width: 50px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"padding-top: 8px;\">\n<div style=\"color: #3897f0; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 550; line-height: 18px;\">Zobrazit p\u0159\u00edsp\u011bvek na Instagramu<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"padding: 12.5% 0;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: flex; flex-direction: row; margin-bottom: 14px; align-items: center;\">\n<div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; height: 12.5px; width: 12.5px; transform: translateX(0px) translateY(7px);\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; height: 12.5px; transform: rotate(-45deg) translateX(3px) translateY(1px); width: 12.5px; flex-grow: 0; margin-right: 14px; margin-left: 2px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; height: 12.5px; width: 12.5px; transform: translateX(9px) translateY(-18px);\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-left: 8px;\">\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; flex-grow: 0; height: 20px; width: 20px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"width: 0; height: 0; border-top: 2px solid transparent; border-left: 6px solid #f4f4f4; border-bottom: 2px solid transparent; transform: translateX(16px) translateY(-4px) rotate(30deg);\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-left: auto;\">\n<div style=\"width: 0px; border-top: 8px solid #F4F4F4; border-right: 8px solid transparent; transform: translateY(16px);\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; flex-grow: 0; height: 12px; width: 16px; transform: translateY(-4px);\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"width: 0; height: 0; border-top: 8px solid #F4F4F4; border-left: 8px solid transparent; transform: translateY(-4px) translateX(8px);\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"display: flex; flex-direction: column; flex-grow: 1; justify-content: center; margin-bottom: 24px;\">\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px; width: 224px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; width: 144px;\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 0; margin-top: 8px; overflow: hidden; padding: 8px 0 7px; text-align: center; text-overflow: ellipsis; white-space: nowrap;\"><a style=\"color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 17px; text-decoration: none;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DMIw3A1IQsU\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">P\u0159\u00edsp\u011bvek sd\u00edlen\u00fd \u0160koda We Love Cycling (@wlcmagazine)<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h2><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><b>The Talent Scout<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;I want to see who\u2019s going to blow up this year.&#8221;<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Meet Puck Pieterse (Fenix-Deceuninck), mountain biker turned road sensation and arguably the breakout star of last year\u2019s TdFF. She won a stage in a photo finish, wore both the polka dot and young rider jerseys, and came second on GC heading into the final day. Oh, and that was her first ever stage race.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This year, she\u2019s back with even more experience and expectations. Don\u2019t be surprised if she wins another stage, animates the climbs, or even makes a run at the podium again. Her style is punchy, bold, and never boring.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also worth watching: the <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">next<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Puck Pieterse, maybe someone like Cedrine Kerbaol or Antonia Niedermaier, riders who could shine on hilly stages or in the breakaways.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>The Big Picture Fan<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;I care about the race, but also what it means about women\u2019s sports.&#8221;<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since its revival in 2022, visibility and engagement with women\u2019s cycling have skyrocketed. Last year, more than 80 million hours of racing were watched in Europe alone. Prize money has grown. Salaries are up. And brands are taking notice. Nike now sponsors teams and riders like Vollering and FDJ-SUEZ.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The competition is tighter than ever. The average WorldTour salary hit \u20ac40,000 this year. Six different teams won stages in 2024. And the race went down to the wire, proof that, with the right kind of support, there\u2019s nothing stopping women\u2019s cycling from consistently delivering world-class racing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This year, that momentum continues, and every viewer helps grow the sport. So tune in, talk about it, and <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">watch the Femmes<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>The Drama Hunter<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;Just tell me when the chaos starts.&#8221;<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Easy.

But keep your eyes especially peeled for:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stage 4: a punchy stage where GC riders can test their legs or lose major time.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stage 8: the high-mountain queen stage that finishes atop the Col de la Madeleine<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2014 this is where the real Tour will be won or lost.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stage 9: the final showdown, often decisive, especially if the gaps are still close.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And for pure tension? Look for head-to-heads between Vollering and Reusser on the climbs, or a Kasia comeback in the final kilometres. One well-timed attack could rewrite the GC.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Bonus drama:<\/strong> Lotte Kopecky (SD Worx-Protime).
