Tour de France Femmes: Emotional Cecilie Uttrup Ludwig wins thrilling Stage 3 showdown to boost FDJ morale

Cecilie Uttrup Ludwig produced a flying finish to win Stage 3 at the Tour de France Femmes and banish the misery at FDJ Suez Futuroscope.

The Dane ripped away from a select group, including Marianne Vos (Jumbo-Visma) in the yellow jersey, to claim victory – with Uttrup Ludwig giving an extraordinary post-race interview as the emotion flowed.

FDJ were downtrodden after co-leader Marta Cavalli suffered a horrible crash on Monday, with Uttrup Ludwig also caught up in the carnage.
