Arnaud de Lie (Lotto) timed his sprint perfectly, overtaking Olav Kooij (Visma-Lease a Bike) to win in Plouay. Emilien Jeannière (TotalEnergies) passed Kooij just before the line to snatch second place.
The aggressive racing on the 261.7km with 4,750 metres of elevation gain saw multiple attacks and breaks make it off the front, but in the end, the 70-rider peloton came back together with 1km to go for a sprint finish.
