Inside the final kilometer and on the final climb of the day Marta Cavalli (FDJ Nouvelle Aquitaine Futuroscope) was away from the others and in sight of the two leaders just up the road. She put everything into the move to bridge across, but she just didn't have the legs. She was caught by both the World Champion and the European Champion (neither of whom could bridge across either) and then dropped by the top of this brutal climb. However, nothing ventured, nothing gained.
