When she raised her arms just before the finish line, Lorena Wiebes (SD Worx-Protime) thought she had won the women’s Amstel Gold Race, after a shortened edition in which she surprised by being able to stay with the punchers’ attacks on the Cauberg. However, Marianne Vos (Team Visma-Lease a Bike) threw her bike on the line, taking the win and pushing Wiebes into second place.

Wiebes was understandably upset after missing what would have been a valued, and somewhat unexpected, addition to her palmares through her own mistake.
