SD Worx made it two for two at the UAE Tour Women, with Lorena Wiebes winning stage 2 after another textbook lead-out from her teammates. The Dutch sprinter powered to the line ahead of Chiara Consonni (UAE ADQ) in second and Clara Copponi (Lidl-Trek) in third, and extended her overall lead.

UAE Tour Women 2024 History
The inaugural event was held in 2023 as the women's peloton headed to the Middle East for the four-day race, which offered three sprint opportunities which were dominated by rivals Lorena Wiebes (SD Worx) and Charlotte Kool (DSM). A summit finish spotlighted stage 3 atop Jebel Hafeet, won by Elisa Longo Borghini (Lidl-Trek) and she went on to secure the overall title.
The event marks the third round of the 2024 Women's WorldTour, after the outset in Australia at the Women's Tour Down Under and the Cadel Evans Road Race.
Organised alongside the men’s race, which has been held since 2019, the UAE Tour Women, once again, promises a festival for the sprinters and one big chance at the overall classification atop the event's decisive ascent Jebel Hafeet.
