She was followed by the representative of the Lithuanian National Team, Olivija Baleišyte, and the representative of the Estonian National Team, Laura Lizette Sander. At today's Ladies Tour of Estonia, several attempts to leave were made. Laura Lizette Sander, representative of the Estonian National Team, and Magdalene Lind, representative of the Coop-Repsol Team, got ahead of the peloton on the gravel section.
This attempt to get away was not successful, and soon Kristel Sandra Soonik (Estonian National Team), Stina Kagevi (Coop-Repsol) and Julia Börgström (Swedish National Team) tried to get away. This attempt also failed.
When the women reached the city rounds, Elisabeth Ebras, representative of the Estonian National Team, gained a small gap on the first climb of Lossi Street. The gap was small and Ebras was caught.
Eline Van Rooijen, rider of the Coop-Repsol Team, did a good sprint in the finish and won the race. "It was a difficult race, but we controlled it and did a good job with the team. The city circuits were very difficult and only a few seconds before the finish line I realized that I could win this race. I am very satisfied," explained Rooijen.
Lithuanian National Team rider Olivija Baleišyte got second place, and Laura Lizette Sander from Estonia came in third place. "It's a pity that the Swede didn't come with the initial attack, but in general I am satisfied. The team was good today," explains Sander.
Laura Lizette Sander was also the best young rider.
