Race report
The break of the day features Yukiya Arashiro, Martin Elmiger, Stijn Steels, Jesper Asselman and Mark McNally. They race to a maximum gap at over 6 minutes.

Then the peloton takes control and keeps them on a leash, yet they almost fail to catch them in time. However, in the dying metres of the race their dream is over.

With perfect steering Peter Sagan powers to the win ahead of Danny van Poppel and Nacer Bouhanni.
