Michael Valgren ha vinto a Meerbeke, in Belgio, la Omloop Het Nieuwsblad, gara d’apertura della campagna del Nord. Con un colpo di mano a 2 km e mezzo dal traguardo, favorito dall’ottimo lavoro di squadra dei compagni Lutsenko e Gatto, il 26enne danese dell’Astana ha lasciato sul posto gli 11 compagni di fuga, tra cui c’erano anche gli altri italiani Trentin, Oss e Colbrelli, poi risucchiati dal gruppo negli ultimi 500 metri. Valgren, al quinto successo in carriera, ha anticipato di una manciata di secondi il polacco Wisniowski e il belga Vanmarcke, poi Stuyven e Gilbert, con Colbrelli ottavo.

Elia Viviani ha vinto in volata la seconda tappa dell’Abu Dhabi Tour, 154 km con traguardo a Yas Beach. Il 29enne veronese della Quick Step ha battuto l’olandese Danny Van Poppel e il tedesco Pascal Ackermann e si ritrova ora al comando della generale.
Per Viviani si tratta del quinto successo stagionale, nessuno ha vinto più di lui quest’anno. Bene anche Fabio Aru: ci sono stato ventagli e lui si è fatto trovare pronto nel primo gruppo. Caduto il vincitore dell’ultimo Giro d’Italia Tom Dumoulin che ha comunque tagliato il traguardo.
