The race: Here's the report from winner Damiano Caruso's Team Bahrain-McLaren.
The amazing day of Team Bahrain McLaren, which also won the second stage of the Route d'Occitanie, started with the success of Damiano Caruso at Circuito de Getxo.
The Italian rider grabbed his chance to get his first individual victory that was "on hold" since 2013.
The strong and experienced Sicilian went into a solo with the great support of Pello Bilbao to a great win of Circuito de Getxo at today’s’ rainy conditions and wet and slippery city roads.
Damiano Caruso: “It is a great feeling. I got this victory after a very long period of time and I am really proud of myself and proud of my teammates. They helped me really a lot during the race and the guys have done an amazing job.
"I had a good feeling with my bike, and a good feeling for racing, so in the end, I found the right moment for taking this victory.
"I went lap by lap and the feeling was getting better and better. My attack wasn’t in a plan but the selection was done at the last steep climb I said to myself, why not to make the difference now. And at the end I was lucky and I made the right decision in the ideal moment for the uphill finish.
"My next races are Milan – Sanremo and Dauphine and I’m looking towards to those big races after today’s’ victory”.
Damiano Caruso managed to hold the distance from Giacomo Nizzolo (NTT Pro Cycling) who finished second and Eduard Prades (Team Movistar) as third.
