"We're still up there. 24 hours to go!" - Katarzyna Niewiadoma one day away from achieving her dreams at the 2024 Tour de France Femmes

After matching Demi Vollering on the penultimate stage of the 2024 Tour de France Femmes, Katarzyna Niewiadoma is now just one stage away from achieving her dream and the dream of any youngster riding a bike... winning the Maillot Jaune.
As Justine Ghekiere took the stage win on stage 7 from the breakaway, Niewiadoma and Vollering tried a few testing moves on the final climb but no separation between the pair was forthcoming. Although last year's Tour de France Femmes winner did snatch 4 bonus seconds by edging the sprint for third, Niewiadoma will begin the final stage with a lead of 27 seconds over nearest GC rival Puck Pieterse and 1:15 on Demi Vollering.
All in all, another positive day for the Canyon//SRAM Racing team leader. "Definitely, it was a very good day for us. We rode a perfect race. I was getting a lot of support from my team which allowed me to save energy for the final," reflected the Pole in her post-stage interview.
"Of course it was super long and very challenging from the start so I'm very happy how the legs felt in the final and yes, we didn’t lose anything, we're still up there. 24 hours to go!" Niewiadoma concludes excitedly. "Tomorrow it's going to be a very important day in my career and in my team’s existence. We're ready for it and we're happy to still be in yellow. I think everyone is very motivated. We're here to pursue our dreams."

- Pointless reporting. They are rivals, each tries their way to get their best result, with or without collaboration. As long as it’s all fair, why even report riders feelings about such stuff (yes I know, lack of other news). Anyone riding races will go through dozens of moments per race where they get emotional about the way someone else rides or takes advantage or doesn’t collaborate or more, it is natural, it is justified, it is NOT newsworthy!Mistermaumau17-11-2024
