Checking on the Polka Dots TdFF23-39
On the Col d'Aspin Yara Kastelijn (Fenix-Deceuninck) in her Maillot a Pois, was being looked after by her teammate Julie Van De Velde, who had worn the polka dots for a day herself. On the climb they dropped off the lead group but formed a second peloton with Alena Amialiusik (UAE Team ADQ), Caroline Andersson (Liv Racing TeqFind) and others. Hopefully, Kastelijn was just going through a rough patch and would soon be able to catch the leaders. She will need to score points on this climb if she wants to ensure that she will go out of the Tour de France Femmes as the Queen of the Mountains.
