Fantastico Alejandro Valverde sul Muro di Huy, dominatore nelle ultime quattro edizioni della Freccia Vallone. Alessandro De Marchi della BMC e Bob Jungels della Quick Step sono andati all’attacco, la Orica di Albasini ha tenuto alto il ritmo, Gianni Moscon e Diego Rosa hanno lavorato per i loro capitani Michal Kwaitkowski ed Sergio Henao. Poi ai -200 un attacco di David Gaudu propizia la zampata del murciano, subito irraggiungibile per tutti. Secondo posto per Daniel Martin (Quick Step), terzo per un sorprendente Dylan Teuns (BMC), decimo classificato Diego Ulissi ma alla fine hanno dovuto tutti arrendersi di fronte allo strapotere di Valverde che, quando ha deciso di aprire il gas, ha fatto il vuoto, conquistando l’ennesimo traguardo prestigioso della sua carriera.
