There was no stopping Eline Jansen (VolkerWessels Cycling), who crashed as part of the day's decisive breakaway but went on to take the stage 3 victory at the CIC-Tour Féminin des Pyrénées in Jurançon.

The Dutch rider was part of the day's 10-rider breakaway but surged in the closing kilometres, and was followed by Léa Curinier (FDJ United-SUEZ). The pair entered a two-way sprint that saw Jansen take the day's win.
