Benoît Cosnefroy (UAE Team Emirates XRG) powered his way to the lead of the Boucles de la Mayenne, taking the sprint from a group of 13 riders after a 215.1 kilometre stage to Pré-en-Pail-Saint-Samson.

The group splintered from a shattered peloton in the Ardennes Classics-style finishing circuits that included 11 climbs in the final 100 kilometres.
