Race report
Kasper Asgreen, Jonas Abrahamsen and Victor Campenaerts establish the breakaway early on. The three open up a 1.40 minutes lead. That’s all they get.
The gap has fallen to 30 seconds when Pascal Eenhoorn tries to bridge across with 65 kilometres remaining. His team mate Campenaerts waits for him and the two rejoin the race lead.
The bunch miscalculates, while the leaders keep working together as a TTT machine until the finale. Campenaerts leads out the spint for Eenkhoorn, but it is Asgreen who powers to triumph.
The other Dane, Vingegaard, stays in the lead of the general classification.
