Boels Ladies Tour: Lorena Wiebes wins stage 1

Lorena Wiebes (Parkhotel Valkenburg) continued her breakthrough season with another sprint victory, winning stage 1 of the Boels Ladies Tour. After attacks by Ashleigh Moolman-Pasio (CCC-Liv), Lizzie Deignan (Trek-Segafredo), and Moniek Tenniglo (Mitchelton-Scott) on the finishing circuit had been brought back, Wiebes was the fastest to the line in the mass sprint, beating Kirsten Wild (WNT-Rotor) and Letizia Paternoster (Trek-Segafredo).

Prologue winner Annemiek van Vleuten (Mitchelton-Scott) went down in a crash earlier on the stage but got back to the peloton and finished in the same time as Wiebes, defending her leader's jersey. Wiebes is now second overall, three second behind Van Vleuten.

“It was my goal to win a stage, and I’m happy that I did. The pressure is off now. There are still some stages to come, who knows what happens, maybe I can win more stages, and if I do, the GC comes with that,” said Wiebes after the finish. “It was a very hectic race today, unfortunately there were several crashes, but it was a good race. Femke Markus brought me to the front on the final lap, then I found my own way, got a good wheel and launched the sprint myself.”
