“It was just a relief that I won it,” Deignan said. “What a performance from Trek-Segafredo today, every single rider played their part, then me and Elisa only had to wait for the finale and she did the perfect job: she forced Marianne to sprint early and I took advantage of that. “It’s phenomenal to win La Course. Sometimes when you’re training hard and things aren’t going your way, it’s really frustrating but finally it feels the luck is on our side.” The victory completed a good month for former world champion Deignan who also won GP Plouay for the third time. La Course by Le Tour, featuring the cream of women’s professional cycling, is the curtain-raiser for the Tour de France which starts later on Saturday in Nice. The women are still without a multi-stage Tour de France of their own, although support is growing to start one possibly as early as 2022.
