Jan Christen (UAE Team Emirates) scored the third win of his neo-pro season with a 10km solo to triumph at the Basque one-day race, the Prueba Villafranca-Ordiziako Klasika.

The 20-year-old broke clear of the peloton late on in the hilly 166km race, holding a small gap to the chasing pack and surviving to the line after making his move on the Alto de Abaltzisketa.
