A group of four caught Thomas De Gendt (OPQS) and the five headed for the line together. Stefano Pirazzi (Bardiani CSF) having gambled and got into the break along with two teammates, rolled the dice again on a long sustained push into Vittorio Vente for the win. The others, Thomas De Gendt, Tim Wellens (Lotto-Belisol), Jay McCarthy (Tinkoff Saxo) and Mattelo Montaguti (AG2R) were all kicking themselves for gambling on not chasing the Italian. Pirazzi's victory makes three stage wins for the Italian Wild Card team, more than enough to show their appreciation for being invited to the party.
