Lorena Wiebes (Team DSM) has doubled up with a second consecutive stage win in the Simac Ladies Tour, winning stage 2 in a mass sprint a day after taking stage 1 in the sprint of a reduced group the previous day.
The last escapee from an early break of three was caught 15 km from the finish, and as there were no further attacks, the stage came down to a sprint.
Trek-Segafredo took the front on the last three kilometres and pushed the pace to keep the DSM train behind them, but DSM came back on the final kilometre and led out Wiebes to win the sprint ahead of Laura Tomasi (UAE Team ADQ) and Lonneke Uneken (Team SD Worx).
With her stage win, Wiebes also defends the yellow leader’s jersey.
