Marianne Vos won her second stage victory in the Giro d'Italia Donne. The Dutch rider outpaced her rivals in the final climb and sprinted to victory in the sixth stage of the tour. It is Vos' 32nd stage victory in the Giro d'Italia Donne.
"It's very cool to take another win”, said Vos. "I didn’t expect to take two stage wins in the Giro d'Italia Donne. After my first win, the pressure was off, but I also wanted to seize the next chance. During the local laps, finding the right position for the climb was important. Ultimately, every climb was a sprint, after which we also had to sprint to the finish line. The team did very well after the first win. Even when I got second and third, they kept the confidence. I wanted to finish it for them and I'm happy it worked out," concluded Vos.
She has won two gold medals, one silver medal, and one bronze medal throughout the tour.After the sixth stage, she is 18th in the overall ranking, 10 minutes and 51 seconds behind overall leader Annemiek van Vleuten.

- Relax. It's only entertainment. No one pretended it to be otherwise. Sir Mark deserves such a spectacle and a salute. No need to be such a tight a**BM12-11-2024
- When it comes to saying stupid things, Thijs Zonneveld takes the cake. It's as if he's never followed bike racing before.
santiagobenites12-11-2024 - Most of Cavendish's wins where off the back of a sprint train so ½ of the effort was already done...
leedorney12-11-2024 - Quite right, writing off Jonas for 2025 victory after what he still managed under the circumstances is a big mistake. Riders are probably peaking younger these days which means they may not last as long and we might have to stop expecting progress until early thirties.Mistermaumau12-11-2024
- You only had to look at the faces of half the riders at the front to see what was going on. Looking to the side into tge crowds to hide their incapacity to stay serious and concentrated.Mistermaumau12-11-2024
- Maybe the greatest sprinter on roads but not the greatest pure sprinter, I think that’d be the chap who consistently beats everyone almost all the time, who at 27 has already been world champion 16x, european champion 12x, amassed 5 olympic golds plus a bronze and is far from finished. He may not becomes the first ever person to average 80km/h in a sprint (without a lead-out) but no-one has got closer.Mistermaumau11-11-2024
- If one can improve so can the other. The other day we were discussing Tadej’s leg shape change, if that is anything to go by, Jonas has plenty of potential left too.Mistermaumau11-11-2024
- He should exit to free up.the budget for younger riders and help the team reach its full potential. Basically he is just taking from the team at this point because he cannot bring any new money in from his performances. I mean sure getting to live the life of a pro another year as a circus attraction of sorts might be fun but it's just gotten selfish the past 2 years.northcarolinaeric11-11-2024
- Pog is the modern day Merckx. And the best part is he is a very nice guy too!
ScottG11-11-2024 - ok, I respect your opinion but I don't agree with your perception. We talking informally about cycling, riders, who it's a pleasure to watch in more competitions, etc. Then we can't talk about nothing because all is hurting, all is incorrect..
