Kasia Niewiadoma-Phinney is preparing to defend her title at the upcoming Tour de France Femmes. She emphasizes a strong focus on her performance and that of her Canyon-SRAM teammates, dismissing concerns about her rivals. Niewiadoma secured her first victory last year by a narrow margin, marking a historic moment in cycling. Motivated by recent successes of other competitors, she remains driven and mentally prepared for the challenge ahead, asserting that her previous victory does not define her career accomplishments.
"I'm coming to this race not focusing on others. I get asked all the time about the other riders, but I really don't care about them."
"The yellow jersey will always remain the yellow jersey. As some people say, you're only as good as your last race - I guess the 2024 victory will stay with me forever, but I don't feel like I'm accomplished for my career."
