Online women’s cycling platform Voxwomen has struck a global partnership with the Trek-Segafredo team to offer free highlights of the 2019 Giro Rosa women’s race in Italy next month.
An hour-long programme featuring highlights and analysis of each of the race’s 10 stages, from July 5-14, will be available on the team’s official website, as well as Voxwomen.
The coverage will be available shortly after the conclusion of each stage of the UCI Women’s World Tour race and will have English-language commentary.
Voxwomen will produce the coverage, which will be available on a global basis, with the exception of the event’s host country, Italy.
Trek-Segafredo has previously provided free coverage of cyclocross races and the Jens Voigt hour record attempt.
Voxwomen founder Anthony McCrossan said: “We have seen increased calls from fans, riders, and teams to put women’s cycling on a platform that makes it easily accessible for viewers. This has been part of our strategy in building Voxwomen as the go-to place for women’s cycling insight and coverage, and now we’re able to develop it.”
Last year, coverage of the Giro Rosa was not available on any media platform in North America.
Further information about the 2019 event’s coverage schedule, which will include information about pre- and post-stage content, will be made available in due course.
