Grace Brown wins Brabantse Pijl Dames 2020

Grace Brown (Mitchelton-Scott) stormed to the line to take victory in Brabantse Pijl Dames with a long-range attack on Wednesday.

The 28-year-old Australian, who left it too late in Liège-Bastogne-Liège before finishing second, made no mistake this time around, attacking with 17km remaining and winning solo. Liane Lippert and Floortje Mackaij mounted a late chase but the Sunweb pair were unable to eat into Brown's advantage and were forced to settle for second and third, respectively. Lotte Kopecky (Lotto Soudal Ladies) won the reduced bunch sprint for fourth.
