Race report
The riders are 10 kilometres underway when Senne Leysen, Nicolò Buratti, Cameron Wurf, Luke Plapp, Dušan Rajovic, Andrey Amador, Olivier Le Gac, Derek Gee and Karl Patrick Lauk jump off the front. The nine carve out a 4 minutes lead.
The leaders are caught with some 30 kilometres remaining before a group of 16 men head out inside the last 15 kilometres.
Stuyven attacks just before the flamme rouge. Kragh Andersen, Mohoric, Trentin and De Buyst go with him. While the initiator of the decisive move loses speed, it comes down to a sprint of four. Mohoric takes the spoils ahead of Trentin.
Wellens wins the Renewi Tour for the third time in his career, which makes him record holder.
