Stage 2 finish

The Race: Sacha Modolo won his fifth race of the 2014 season today. He had two Lampre teammates (Ariel Richeze and Davide Cimolai) with him in the front group and that firepower did no go to waste. Richeze dropped Modolo off with a quarter-kilometer to go and the Italian sprinter had the legs to beat accomplished sprinters Arnaud Demare and Alexander Kristoff.

With a little more than 20 kilometers to go, a formidable trio broke away (Niki Terpstra, Oscar Gatto and Guillume van Kiersbulck,) but was caught in the final kilometers. That set things up for a big sprint, which Lampre-Merida handled perfectly.

Peter Sagan rode half of the stage and abandoned, surely thinking about the Ronde van Vlaanderen on Sunday.
