Caleb Ewan took a decisive print victory in Fourmies today, in a mass sprint ahead of Dylan Groenewegen and Amaury Capiot following a crash within the final kilometres which eliminated some of the sprint contenders.

Lotto controlled the lead-out, and Groenewegen was the first to initiate the sprint within the final few hundred metres. Ewan was tight on the Dutch sprinter’s wheel, though, and overtook him ahead of the line.
