Race report
Despite a strong headwind at the start Dmitri Groezdev, Jaco Venter and Jarl Salomein break away and they race to a 3 minutes gain. Etixx is in control for leader Terpstra.
With 20 kilometres left the pack brings back the escapees and a bunch sprint is the only likely outcome. Kristoff takes his second win, besting Sagan on the line.
