Sigrid Haugset: “I never thought this could be possible”

Sigrid Haugset (Uno-X Mobility) won the third stage of the 2026 Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift with an excellent solo ride, taking the Yellow Jersey along the way.

“I would say this is a dream come true, but I actually hadn’t even thought about it. I never thought this could be possible. Standing here is unreal.”

“When I attacked, I just had a few seconds on the peloton. I heard Lotte Kopecky had jumped from the bunch and I was sure she would catch me. I thought I might as well sit up and wait for her, because being second to her was already a good enough result for me. But I kept going. My DSs were amazing from the car, pushing me and making me think of my teammates and everyone cheering from home. I had to give it all! I can’t believe Lotte didn’t catch me. And then, I got this victory in the Norwegian national champion jersey!! It’s fantastic.”

“I hadn’t thought of taking the Yellow Jersey. I was just too dizzy at the end of the stage. I know my boyfriend at home must be a bit angry that I didn’t celebrate the victory, but I couldn’t lift my arms off the bike. It was impossible!!”
