Marianne Vos: "I think Cecilie had the best legs in the final, I gave it my all, but it was all I could get"

Marianne Vos could not secure the stage victory in the third stage of the Tour de France Femmes. She finished second behind stage winner Cecilie Uttrup Ludwig.

Vos finished two seconds behind Ludwig, She has no excuse for her ranking, and she admits Ludwig’s superiority." I think Cecilie had the best legs in the final," Vos said in the flash interview.

She feels there is no need for disappointment as the rider gave her best in the final sprint ." I may be disappointed, but I gave everything. And I was there in the full final, then I can't be disappointed. We did our best today, but also knew it would be difficult over the climbs. It had to come from deep," said Vos.

"We managed to come back, and in the final, you know there is a chance. I gave it my all, but it was all I could get," concluded Vos. Although she didn't win, she was able to secure the yellow jersey for one more day and even gain a 16-second advantage over Silvia Persico in GC.
