Totally is a potential decisive day at the 2025
Tour de France Femmes. Going into stage 8's Queen Stage,
Kim Le Court sits atop the general classification and in the Maillot Jaune, but her hopes of retaining the jersey have now been hit by a blow after crashing on a descent.
Having initially tried to attack early and get up the road into the breakaway, Le Court was right at the front of the peloton heading into the final 60km, managing the pace of the bunch on the descent. Misjudging a high-speed corner, however, Le Court was unable to stop herself from going off the road, somersaulting into a ditch at the roadside.
With a final battle atop the Col de la Madeline still to come, Le Court now faces a race against time to get back into the GC group to defend her Maillot Jaune against the likes of
Demi Vollering and
Katarzyna Niewiadoma. See the crash for yourself down below!
