Video: Tour de France Femmes from the point of view of FDJ Suez Futuroscope
Cycling
The first edition of Tour de France Femmes was a major hit, but the same cannot be said for team FDJ Suez Futuroscope.
In the first stage, they could not secure any podium position, but Vittoria Guazzini managed to secure the 10th position. In the second stage, the team suffered a massive loss with Marta Cavalli involved in the crash, which put a damp on their GC hopes.
Cecilie Uttrup Ludwig won stage three of the tour and dedicated the victory to Cavalli, hospitalized after the crash. The team regained their hope again, and Évita Muzic went to secure silver in the fourth stage. The following two stages were rather unfruitful for the team, but Ludwig continued her dream with a bronze in the seventh stage. There was tension in the air before the final stage as Annemiek Van Vleuten had a 3-minute lead. Ludwig tried her best but finished in the 8th position. She secured the 7th position in GC.

- I think you overestimate scientific knowledge and for sure the spreading of it. There are huge numbers of people in similar situations, if there were an easy solution somebody would be making big money out of it. Nerve pain can have many complex origins or be due to complex combinations of reasons. Even if you discover a reason there is not always a solution. Migraines haven’t been solved either. I have had lower back/hip nerve pains on and off for over 30 years, no kind of doctor has ever found a way to reduce, prevent or solve the problem. It may just be that some people are born with nerves that are too short or get twisted out of position during certain movements.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
- Amazing ride by her and very promising for her future. On a side note, it’s a bit worrying all these wins riders have after emotional moments in their lives, someone will come up with emotional doping at some point. Maybe give them fake news just before a big race to get hormones pumping.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
