Liv AlUla Jayco went out on an aggressive footing with <strong>Ur\u0161ka \u017digart<\/strong> getting into the main break of the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u017digart and her companions survived out front until the last ascent when the race was blown apart on the steep slopes of the Mandizorrotz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wyllie was in the first chasing group over the top behind a solo Demi Vollering with Garc\u00eda close behind. The two chasing groups merged in the final few kilometres and the New Zealand champion finished 10th on the stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately, Garc\u00eda crashed inside the final two kilometres. However, she was awarded the same time as Wyllie and the rest of the group due to the three-kilometre rule, allowing her to take fourth overall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As well as taking the win in the young rider\u2019s classification, Wyllie also made it two Liv AlUla Jayco riders in the top 10 in the main GC with her strong performance on the final day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Ella Wyllie:<\/span><\/strong><br><em>&#8220;I\u2019m really proud of how our team raced Itzulia, and each day we showed our strength. Today, I found my legs and I\u2019m really happy to get the result the girls positioned me well for. Unfortunately, Mavi crashed in the final today. Hopefully, she has a speedy recovery but she showed so much strength coming from the Vuelta and we are in a good position going into future races!&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Mavi Garc\u00eda:<\/strong><\/span><br><em>\u201cIt was a shame to crash today just 1.5km from the end and also being off the podium by a second but I&#8217;m left with the positive part, because yesterday I felt good again and now I will have time to recover, rest and prepare well for the second part of the season! We have also achieved the best young woman with Ella and I am happy because I think we will be able to do very well together!\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>2024 Itzulia Women \u2013 Stage 3<\/strong><\/span><br>1.
