Team DSM’s Women’s program opened their 2022 account in style with a spectacular ride at GP Oetingen today, as Lorena Wiebes finished off a superb team performance to take the win.
Keeping tabs on proceedings throughout the entirety of the afternoon; the team were fully committed to the plan of setting up fast-finisher Wiebes for the finale. Riding cohesively as a unit, Francesca Barale and Esmée Peperkamp did a great job early in the race, before Pfeiffer Georgi and Charlotte Kool shut down any dangerous moves in the closing stages, breaking the will of the attackers and setting up a bunch kick to the line. Controlling it all the way under the flamme rouge, Georgi and Kool delivered Wiebes into the perfect position, who then put on a dominant display of power to take a brilliant win for the team; raising her arms aloft in glory as she crossed the line.
