Despite crashes and a “hectic” atmosphere, Anna van der Breggen made it two straight Dutch victories in La Course by Le Tour de France women’s race on the Champs-Elysees, held on the same day as the Tour de France finishes.

The 25-year-old rider, who also won the Giro Rosa stage race in Italy this month, broke away on the rain-splattered Paris boulevard to beat Jolien D’hoore of Belgium, who was second, and Dutchwoman Amy Pieters in third – each 1 second behind.
