Looks like it was.

1	DENZ Nico	Team Sunweb	14	20	5:01:41
2	STEIMLE Jannik	Deceuninck - Quick Step	5	12	,,
3	DRUCKER Jempy	BORA - hansgrohe	3	7	,,

 

[roundabout]

Denz would probably be nominally slower than both, so if it was a sprint,well done. And if it wasn't, still well done.

That was the most beautiful lead-out from Mitchelton Scott for the last 5 kms to deliver Smith the race in Italy - It was a work of art.

Ulissi wins stage 4 in Luxenbourg and extends his lead.
Group of 4 with Wellens, Aime De Gendt and Markus Hoelgaard formed on the last hill and stayed away. Very entertaining race in the last 50+ km.

 

[RedheadDane]

Well... technically he reclaimed the lead. Grosu had it today.

Krieger is such a frustrating rider. He is so good and strong in all sorts of sprints and hills but he just can't win for his life. There are always riders better and more specialized. But good to see him finally riding strong on ProConti level. Well deserved after all his years on Conti level.

True. In my mind he was always going to be a temporary holder for the jersey.

I counted 121 top ten results for him in UCI races in his career so far - without ever winning a single race. That's both impressive and sad.

And now a *** truck parked on the road just caused a big crash in Luxembourg!

 

[GenericBoonenFan]

So uhm, safe to assume there won't be a Tour of Luxemburg next year unless the organisation changes?
Cause in fairness, which WT or PCT-squad will send their riders to a russian roulette?

 

[RedheadDane]

Meanwhile, on the more fun side of things - except for the guy in question, I guess... - Buitrago just manages to do the classical "celebrate too early" thing.

And Kron takes the win. Ulissi takes second, and defend the jersey.

Ethan Hayter wins Giro dell'Appennino in front of Covi and Robert Stannard. It was a sprint from a reduced group.

And Bouhanni wins Isbergues.

Bouhanni won from the break???

And Bouhanni wins Isbergues.

In front of Romain "Cardis" no less.

 

[PeterB]

Hmmm, those Isbergues finishing times on PCS make no sense...

Edit: ok, so not from break, it was a regular (and very clean from Nacer's side) bunch sprint

Got to love French sprinter races with one sprinter in them. A true staple of the sport

Well actually two sprinters, but one is the leadout for the other.

Is the Paris Camembert start list usually this weak or is it a product of the compressed season?

Dorian Godon wins the Great Amazing Cheese Race, also known as Paris-Camembert.

it’s always a surprise when some guy I‘ve never heard of wins a race and it turns out he’s on a WT team, has won before, has been a pro for a few seasons...

Does the winner still receive his weight in Camembert?

I think he was even fairly close to winning a Vuelta stage last year.
