20-year-old Célia Gery (FDJ United-SUEZ) surprised the favourites to take her first professional victory at De Brabantse Pijl Women 2026, launching an early sprint before narrowly pipping Mischa Bredewold (SD Worx-Protime) to the line in Overijse on Friday.
A two-rider break of Loes Adegeest (Lidl-Trek) and Anna van der Breggen (SD Worx-Protime) led until the final 1.4km after the former had been part of two early breakaways and the latter had bridged across in the final 30km.
