The RideLondon Classique closed today with the final 91.2 km in the heart of the city of London. At the end of the day Eleonora Gasparrini celebrated winning the White Jersey as leader of the Youth Classification for the second year in a row. The Italian rider also finishes eighth in GC.

An eighth place in the first stage and a seventh in the second stage had come for her in the past few days, and from the first day she wore the White Jersey. The race today was very fast and in the final sprint Chiara Consonni was not able to make the sprint she wanted. Good work by Eugenia Bujak and Mikayla Harvey, while yesterday a crash caused Anastasia Carbonari to fracture her right collarbone.

After the award ceremony Eleonora Gasparrini said, "I am very happy for winning this jersey. Maybe today we could have finished with a better result as a team, but being able to win the Youth Classification I think is a good thing for me."

The team looks forward to the upcoming goals with confidence.
