The race will end in a short, but demanding mountain prize, and few riders reached the definition to compete for the final victory.

What happened

In the final meters, the team runner One-X Mobility Tobias Johannessen He took the lead, took the lead and reached the top.

When he thought he had won, he came from behind Lenny Martinezsurpassed him and celebrated the victory, which materialized on the sentencing line itself.

Johannessen looked at him strangely, because Martínez raised his arm in victory, but he had not realized that the finish line was ahead and that is why he gave up the victory.

Martínez spent a time of 4h.09.43, the same as Johannessen and the Frenchman Romain Bardet (DSM), a veteran runner who was very combative on the hard slopes of Mont Faron.

The day was marked by the escape of six runners who did not represent a danger to the candidates for victory.

In the last third of the route, a hardness was concentrated that increased until reaching the foot of the Mont Faronwhere the adventure was already dissolved.

The end

Before facing this first port on a narrow 5.7 km road at 8.4 percent, one of the favorites was eliminated, Guillaume Martin (Cofidis), victim of a breakdown.

He had the goal after the last curve, within reach, but while he was celebrating a victory that he did not yet have, Lenny Martínez sneaked in by surprise to sign a curious, atypical victory. It can be said that he “stole the wallet” of the Nordic man. Until the last meter there is a race.
