Ewen Costiou (Arkéa-B&B Hotels) won the Tour du Limousin after a breakaway was caught in the final kilometre of stage 4 to Limoges.

Costiou finished second, third and second on three stages, and the accumulation of time bonuses and a strong ride on the final stage secured him overall victory.

Andrea Vendrame (Decathlon-AG2R) won the final stage, giving the French team consecutive victories, with his teammate Paul Lapeira taking second and celebrating at the same time. Hugo Page (Intermarché-Wanty) was third in the hectic sprint finish.

"We leave the Tour du Limousin with two stage wins and that’s a good result. It’s also my second victory of the season with the team, so I’m really happy and I hope I’ll have another chance to win before the end of the year."
