Sylvain Moniquet (Cofidis) took his first professional victory on stage 2 of the Tour du Limousin-Périgord, timing an attack perfectly in the final 2km to win solo in Grèzes as the general classification favourites failed to get a chase together.
The 27-year-old Belgian went away from a fractured lead breakaway group and held a narrow lead to the line, with Alexandre Delettre (TotalEnergies) taking second eight seconds later and Ewen Costiou (Arkéa-B&B Hotels) third, a further three seconds back.
