Koev holds on for race win
Maros Kovac (Dukla Trencin Merida) claimed the final stage victory as the peloton was largely wiped out on the final stage. Kovac finished two seconds ahead of team-mate Robert Nagy and Nazar Jumabekov.
The trio were three of just 14 riders to finish the stage, as man were either unable to finish or finished outside the time cut.
One man who did make the finish line was opening stage winner Vladimir Koev (Hemus 1896 – Vivelo) from Bulgaria. Koev finished in fourth place just two seconds behind Kovac, easily ensuring he maintain his overall lead to win the race.
