Danny van Poppel (Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe) shot to the stage 1 victory at the Tour de Hongrie, coming out on top in the bunch sprint that concluded the 210km opening stage in Gyor.
The Dutchman beat Tim Torn Teutenberg (Lidl-Trek) and Dylan Groenewegen (Jayco-AlUla) to the line at the end of a largely flat day, which started in Budapest and traversed two third-category climbs before the finish.
