Sunday, May 20: 5th & final stage, Moelv - Lillehammer, 154 km
Eduard Prades took the lead on the final day.
The race: Here's the report from final winner Eduard Prades' Euskadi Basque Country team.
Edu Prades rounded off the start of the season for the Euskadi-Murias ProContinental team as he has won the Tour of Norway (2.HC) overall classification. The Catalan cyclist attacked far from the finish in the last stage and got the final win in the general classification, after being second today.
The Basque team, directed in Norway by Xabier Muriel, did a stunning teamwork in the hardest stage, featuring a first category and two second category climbs in a day covering 154 kilometers between Moelv and Lillehammer. Sergio Samitier, Héctor Sáez and Aitor González were in today’s breakaways before the final attack by Prades, at 20 kilometers from the arrival.
The rider from Tarragona, joined by two other riders, opened a big-enough gap to celebrate his win in the finish line. He won with 3 seconds over Alexander Kamp (TVC), winner today, and 12 seconds over Edvald Boasson Hagen (DDD). Aritz Bagüés was ninth in the overall and Jon Aberasturi, who was third and sixth in two stages, completed the Euskadi-Murias squad in Norway, where the Basque team ended up in second place in the teams’ classification.
Jon Odriozola, sports manager: “This is a huge win for the Euskadi-Murias team, which is being the surprise team of the season in the whole world. This is amazing: when we thought we had achieved our top level, we have proven not to have limits. Some years ago it was unthinkable that the Basque Country could be back to this level in such a short time. It is truly spectacular and amazing what we are achieving. ‘Zorionak’ everybody and thank you for cheering on us!”
Edu Prades: “The stage has been very fast, which was what I wanted. The hardest, the better for me and the team, and we have been able to take advantage of this chance. This is my most important win — also the most special one, as I had never won a five-day stage race overall. I’m surprised because I thought my shape was going to get worse with the days, but luckily it did not get worse.”
This win complete the remarkable season of the Euskadi-Murias team on its first year as a Professional Continental squad. The Basque team has achieved 58 top-10 spots (in 21 races and with 14 riders), 21 podium places and three wins: Aberasturi and Mikel Bizkarra last weekend in Aragon, and today’s win by Prades. The Catalan was also second at the Tour de Yorkshire, where he was only beaten by Greg van Avermaet, and third at the Tour of Castile and León.
The next races for the team will be Grand Prix de Plumelec-Morbihan (1.1), on May 26; Boucles de l'Aulne - Châteaulin (1.1), on May 27; Skoda-Tour de Luxembourg (2.HC), May 30-June 3; and Boucles de la Mayenne (2.1), May 31-June 3.

Saturday, May 19: Stage 4, Kongsvinger - Brumunddal, 218 km
Dylan Groenewegen gets his third stage this Norway Tour.
The race: Here's the report from stage winner and GC leader Dylan Groenewegen's LottoNL-Jumbo team.
Dylan Groenewegen has sprinted to a hattrick in the Tour of Norway. Groenewegen showed that he’s by far the fastest in the race and in the fourth stage he sprinted to his third stage victory this week. Due to his win, he extends his lead in the overall classification. His victory tally for this season is now at eight wins and the fifteenth for Team LottoNL-Jumbo.
The final of the 218 kilometre long stage to Brumunddal was very chaotic. Amund Jansen, one of the regular lead out men for Groenewegen, almost crashed and the lead out was thoroughly disrupted. Nevertheless, Team LottoNL-Jumbo controlled the stage with panache, after which Jansen and Timo Roosen initiated the sprint.
“The final was crazy and chaotic”, a relieved Groenewegen said. “It went fast. I lost the wheel of my lead out men in the final because I was almost brought down. Amund almost crashed as well, but he was still able to return to the front and do an impressive job. When Boasson Hagen wanted to surprise me with an attack, I started my sprint. I’m glad that I was able to finish it off. The team once again did a great job and I can’t thank my team mates enough for that.”
Tomorrow, Groenewegen will start as the leader in the last stage to Lillehammer. Nevertheless, the resident of Amsterdam doesn’t think about the overall classification yet. “Tomorrow will be a tough stage, but I will give everything and do my best. I’m very happy with my three stage wins. The week has been a great success. Perhaps, the stage is more suitable for Amund. He is very, very strong. Just look at today. He almost crashed, he came back and was still able to help me. Then you’re better than just good.”

Friday, May 18: Stage 3, Moss - Sarpsborg, 176 km
Dylan Groenewegen wins ahead of Edvald Boasson Hagen.
The race: Here's the report from winner Dylan Groenewegen's LottoNL-Jumbo team.
Dylan Groenewegen has won the third stage in the Tour of Norway in an impressive way. The 24-year-old sprinter of Team LottoNL-Jumbo won the stage in the streets of Sarpsborg. The manner in which he won resembled his win on Wednesday: very convincingly and with bravado. With his second stage victory and the bonus seconds that came with it, Groenewegen reclaimed the overall lead. It’s his seventh victory of the season and the fourteenth for Team LottoNL-Jumbo.
Only in the last five hundred metres the early breakaway was caught. After a strong and perfect lead out by Timo Roosen and Amund Jansen, Groenewegen perfectly timed his sprint.
“This was a very close call”, a relieved Groenewegen said about catching the breakaway in the last few hundred metres. “I’m very happy that we succeeded and that I won the stage. Once again, the team has done an incredible job and for this I’m very grateful to my team mates. It was a long and very difficult sprint, but the stage win is in the bag. The lead-out of Timo and Amund was another textbook sprint and also Paul Martens and Pascal Eenkhoorn contributed to this win a lot. Tomorrow, there’s another chance and we are fully going for it again. For now, I’m very happy and relieved that I’ve won. My seventh victory this season, it’s going very well this year.”

Thursday, May 17: Stage 2, Honefoss - Asker, 146.6 km
Edvald Boasson Hagen takes the stage in front of Sondre Enger
The race: Here's the report from stage winner Edvald Boasson Hagen's Team Dimension Data.
Edvald Boasson Hagen (Team Dimension Data) stormed to victory on stage two at the Tour of Norway, on a day that marked the Norwegian’s birthday and the Norwegian Constitution Day. Second on the stage was Sondre Holst Enger (Israel Cycling Academy) and Alex Aranburu (Caja Rural – Seguros RGA) placed 3rd.
Stage two at the Tour of Norway was a lumpy, 146km stage running from Hønefoss to Asker. The stage included 2 category three climbs, with a number of other uncategorized undulations throughout the stage.
A break of four riders went clear from the peloton after a fast start to racing. They extended their lead to just over three minutes during the course of the stage. Our riders worked hard at the front of the peloton, constantly controlling the break in order to set up Boasson Hagen for the finale. With 18km to go, our African Team had succeeded in reeling the breakaway back in.
Leading into the final kms, Team Dimension Data held their position near the front of the peloton, maintaining the optimal position for Edvald Boasson Hagen. Our powerful Norwegian then managed to out sprint Sondre Holst Enger (Israel Cycling Academy) and Alex Aranburu (Caja Rural – Seguros RGA) for the stage.

“I did it last year on the same finish, so I knew what to do and it worked out well today, so I am really happy. The team did well today, they did a great job in the end. It’s really fantastic. I had to dig pretty deep, it was a hard finish, but it’s really worth it when you win it.”

Wednesday, May 16: Stage 1, Svelvik - Horten, 186 km
Dylan Groenewegen wins stage one
The race: Here's the report from winner Dylan Groenewegen's LottoNL-Jumbo team.
Dylan Groenwegen has won the first stage in the Tour of Norway in an impressive way. The 24-year-old sprinter from Team LottoNL-Jumbo convincingly won the sprint finish in the streets of Horten. He’s also the first leader in the overall standings. For Groenewegen, who rode his first race since Paris-Roubaix, it’s his sixth victory of the season. For Team LottoNL-Jumbo it’s the thirteenth victory this year.
The stage over 186 kilometres from Svelvik to Horten saw an early breakaway. Team LottoNL-Jumbo controlled the stage with panache and brought Groenewegen in an ideal position for the sprint.
“The boys did a perfect leadout today”, Groenewegen said. “It all went very well. It was a tough and difficult final, but most of all it was hectic. The team has done a great job by controlling the race and putting me in the perfect position for the sprint. Especially Amund Jansen and Timo Roosen were very strong in the final kilometre.”
Groenewegen was very optimistic about his chances for the rest of the week. “I’m feeling really good. Tomorrow, the stage is hillier, and the same accounts for the finish. But we are definitely going to try. It’s a nice challenge and we’ll go for it. There will be a few more chances for me and the team for sure this week. This is a nice way to start.”
Sports director Nico Verhoeven had seen a very strong team. “Dylan obviously was the fastest today. What struck me the most is how strong the team was. Everyone knows that Dylan is the fastest, so the pressure was on us. But the boys coped with it very well. Lars Boom and Pascal Eenkhoorn controlled the race the whole day, after which Paul Martens, Amund and Timo did the leadout for Dylan. He was the top favourite, but you still have to do it. Very strong after a period without racing.”
