At the head of the peloton, teams arranged themselves, Visma-Lease a Bike and SD Worx-Protime leading out the race. Anna van der Breggen moved to the front of Wiebes, as Vos rode in the slipstream of AG Insurance-Soudal’s Kim Le Court, preparing for the final sprint.

It's really nice to have a lead-out as you're in control, but it's also nice to trust your own feeling on how to do the sprint' says Dutchwoman after win in Poitiers

Team SD Worx-Protime’s Lorena Wiebes out-sprinted Team Visma Lease-A-Bike’s Marianne Vos to win Stage 4 of the Tour de France Femmes, her second victory in as many days. Wiebes was able to secure her eighth Tour de France stage success, taking her to 109 career wins in total, but had Vos on her wheel the whole way in to Poitiers.
