Kimberley Le Court secured victory in stage six of the Tour de France Femmes after overcoming a mechanical failure and a crash. The AG Insurance-Soudal rider was forced to change her bike with just 15 km remaining but fought back to join an eight-rider breakaway.

Le Court launched a sprint in the final 300 meters, narrowly defeating France's Cedrine Kerbaol, with the Netherlands' Puck Pieterse finishing third. Despite the challenges, Marlen Reusser of Movistar maintained her overall lead in the yellow jersey.

Reusser now holds a 12-second advantage over Demi Vollering in the general classification after the 153.4 km stage. The race continues with stage seven, with Reusser aiming to extend her lead.
