La Course by le Tour marque, enfin, le retour du cyclisme féminin sur le Tour de France avec 13 tours autour des Champs Elysées à réaliser. C’est la Championne du Monde en titre Marianne Vos qui remporte l’épreuve , elle devance au sprint la Néerlandaise Kirsten Wild et la Canadienne Leah Kirchmann.
De nombreuses échappées ont marqué cette courses avec celles notamment de Elin Van Dijk (Boels Dolman), Chantal Blaak (SpecializedLuluLemon), Alena Amialiusik (Astana BePink), et Rachel Neylan (Australia) mais, comme chez les hommes, il est difficile de remporter l’épreuve en échappée.
Au final, c’est donc un sprint massif qui sera remporté par Marianne Vos. A noter que la Française Pauline Ferrand Prevot (Rabo-Liv) s’est retrouvé au sol dans l’ultime km avec la Britannique Elisabeth Armitstead (Boels Dolmans), heureusement sans gravité.
