Balsamo finishes second in the sprint

Lotte Kopecky won the 4th edition of the women's Paris-Roubaix race today, Saturday 6 April, over the distance of 148.5 km.

The good action occurs on the Camphin en Pévele sector 20 km from the finish. Added to Ellen Van Dijk and Amber Kraak, who had tried to attack in the previous sector, were the favorites Lotte Kopecky and Marianne Vos, Pfeiffer Georgi but above all Elisa Balsamo who, despite a moment of difficulty on the Carrefour de l'Arbre, managed to stay in the leading group.

In the final sprint, however, Balsamo was beaten by an extraordinary comeback Kopecky, her first success in Roubaix. The Lidl Trek sprinter still finished second ahead of Georgi and Vos.
