Theo Bos of Rabobank edged out Andre Greipel (Lotto Beilsol) at the line to win the mass sprint in the second and final stage of the World Ports Classic. First stage winner Tom Boonen was third on the stage, but took the overall title of the premiere edition of the Dutch-Belgian race.

Rabobank worked hard the entire stage to set up for the mass sprint in Rotterdam, and its efforts were paid off when Bos won the sprint by a half a bike length.

The final overall classification reflected the first stage finish results, with Boonen as first, Greipel second and Alexander Kristoff of Katusha third.
