For a second day in a row, Maeva Squiban (UAE Team ADQ) raised her arms at the finish line for a solo victory at the Tour de France Femmes. She followed her first-ever Women's WorldTour stage victory on Thursday with another searing late attack from the front group and this time descended alone into Chambéry for another win. Cédrine Kerbaol (EF Education-Oatly) repeated with second place, finishing just ahead of Ruth Edwards (Human Powered Health). Kim Le Court-Pienaar (AG Insurance-Soudal) closed the gap among the second chase group to retain the yellow jersey.
Stage 6: Maeva Squiban takes biggest victory of career with 32km solo attack / As it happened
Maëva Squiban (UAE Team ADQ) won stage 6 of the Tour de France Femmes after a 32km solo move. She attacked out of the peloton, which contained the overall favourites, but as no threat on GC, she was able to build a big lead.
The young French rider maintained her effort on the mainly downhill, undulating roads to Ambert to win with a big margin, 1:09 ahead of solo chaser Juliette Labous, and 1:13 in front of the main bunch, which was led in by race leader Kim Le Court-Pienaar (AG Insurance-Soudal). Le Court extended her overall lead by eight seconds thanks to gaining bonus seconds in the finale.
Stage 5: Kim Le Court-Pienaar awarded victory ahead of Demi Vollering in photo-finish sprint and reclaims yellow jersey / As it happened
Kim Le Court-Pienaar (AG Insurance-Soudal) won stage 5 of the Tour de France Femmes, beating Demi Vollering (FDJ-Suez) and Anna van der Breggen (SD Worx-Protime) in the sprint of a group of seven that formed on the Maupuy climb in Guéret.
Since Marianne Vos (Visma-Lease a Bike) finished 33 seconds down in the second group, Le Court-Pienaar also takes back the yellow jersey as the new GC leader. Le Court-Pienaar now leads the overall classification by 18 seconds ahead of Vos' teammate Pauline Ferrand-Prévot (Visma-Lease a Bike) and 23 seconds ahead of Demi Vollering (FDJ-SUEZ) as the race heads into stage 6 on Thursday.

Lara Gillespie (UAE Team ADQ) trailed in the bunch sprint for third. Vos was rewarded in the end by retaining the yellow jersey for a third day.
Stage 3: Lorena Wiebes wins furious sprint as Kim Le Court and Demi Vollering caught out in late-race crash / As it happened
Lorena Wiebes (SD Worx-Protime) held off Marianne Vos (Visma-Lease a Bike) to win stage 3 of the Tour de France Femmes 2025 in a carnage-filled finish in Angers. Ally Wollaston (FDJ-Suez) finished third. Vos took back the yellow jersey from Kim Le Court-Pienaar (AG Insurance-Soudal), who was caught behind a late-race crash with just over 3km to go and split in the field, also causing Demi Vollering (FDJ-SUEZ), placed fifth overall, to go down and lose time.
Stage 2: Mavi García holds on solo ahead of charging bunch for biggest victory of career at 41 / As it happened
It should have been a stage for Lorena Wiebes but instead, it was Mavi Garcia (Jayco-AlUla) who seized the day in Quimper, attacking solo with 10km to go and narrowly holding off the chasers. Kim Le Court claimed the maillot jaune with a well-timed sprint for third on the stage, and with the time bonus moved into the race lead on the same time as Marianne Vos.
Stage 1: Marianne Vos overtakes teammate Pauline Ferrand-Prévot to take stage win and first yellow jersey in Plumelec / As it happened
In a dramatic finish in Plumelec, Marianne Vos came from behind just as her Visma-Lease a Bike teammate Pauline Ferrand-Prévot was being caught in sight of the line to snatch the victory ahead of Kim Le Court (AG Insurance-Soudal).
