The Race: Amalie Dideriksen proved that she is becoming a complete rider. Last year at the Tuscan world championships she won the Junior Women's title from a small breakaway. This year, because the Italians set a red-hot pace, the peloton broke up. She was able to bridge to the leading group.

Then when there was some consolidation after the final descent, Italian Sofia Bertizzolo tried an early sprint. But Dederiksen was too powerful and blasted by Bertizzolo to win her second consecutive world championship.

After the race Dideriksen told l'Equipe, "We had to control the attacks of the Italians on the last lap. I knew the danger would come from them. They launched the sprint from far, but I was confident." It looks like she was confident with good reason.
