Lorena Wiebes wins Dutch national title as crash takes out Vos and Vollering
CyclingSaturday, 28 June 2025 at 12:43
Lorena Wiebes claimed the 2025 Dutch national road race
title with a commanding sprint victory, capitalising on a late crash that
eliminated two of her main rivals, Marianne Vos and Demi Vollering, from
contention.
The incident occurred just 7km from the finish, with both
Vos and Vollering caught in the pile-up. Although they were able to remount and
finish the race, neither could take part in the final sprint. It must be said
that the course was likely not hard enough for Vos or Vollering to contest the
victory, and Wiebes would still have been the clear favourite for victory
without the crash.
Up ahead, Charlotte Kool attempted to seize the initiative
by launching her sprint early. But Wiebes, the reigning European champion,
responded with ease, breezing past Kool in the final metres to take the win in
dominant fashion. Nienke Veenhoven secured third place to complete the podium.

- What, same week as Jota? That’ll start conspirationists. So how are they going to determine if it’s cause or effect?Mistermaumau12-07-2025
- Ok, thanksMistermaumau12-07-2025
- Sorry but if what he says is actually true, he should be taken out because he becomes a danger to others. At best, forced to ride behind the peleton with only teammates as company until he can show being in full control of his bike.Mistermaumau12-07-2025
- Pog was irritated by Visma's tactics, and Jorgenson made it hard for him to take a bottle. But Knetemann made it sound as if Pog had stolen Jonas's lunch. Being an introvert has not stopped Jonas from hitting back at critics before, so Knetemann has no need to speak of him as if he were a small child.Hill3312-07-2025

- Not to be overly negative, but I don't see Joao Almeda being able to carry on much longer in this Tour.
santiagobenites12-07-2025 - Day 2 after such a crash with rib fracture in addition to multiple soft tissue injuries is worst because edema in the body accumulates after a days race. Sad to say when Joao wake up tomorrow he will feel like he has been run over by a truck.Jakob12-07-2025
- 2 stages! Let's go Sarah! So happy for her after what she's been through. Also, thank you for covering this - fastest site (and the only site that I've seen so far) to cover this stage.Pogboom12-07-2025
- Danish... When his compatriot went from being a complete unknown to being the best climber in the world, a very average (bad) time-trialist to perform the best time trial in history, a growth achieved in about one year (improving... what? 90%?)... what did this great expert say? Tadej was progressing from the age of 18-19 until now, it was not a leap from one year to the next. I really believe that the cycling NOW is as clean as OTHER SPORTS, but if I HAVE TO suspect about doping, I'd suspect of unexpected big jump and not about one that is a phenomenon from his adolescence.
