Benoît Cosnefroy (Decathlon AG2R La Mondiale) won the Grand Prix du Morbihan for the second year in a row, and the third time of his career.  Arkea-B&B Hotels duo of Kévin Vauquelin and Clément Venturini finished second and third, respectively.

In the closing kilometres, with the peloton reduced to around 60 riders, no team managed to take control as the race surged toward the summit finish on the Côte de Cadoudal—a 1.7 km climb averaging a 6.3% gradient.
