Race report
Dan Martin, Alexis Gougeard and Adrian Kurek are the first to force a gap. But that’s about it. Minard, Muilberger, Meersman, Vanspeybrouck, Eaton and Marycz are more succesful, while Asselman joins the break. One hour into the race they enjoy a 2’20” lead. Average speed: 46 kmph.
With 7 kms left the last escapees are caught and the race boils down to a bunch sprint with Kristoff taking the flowers.
