At 7 km Powless counterattacks and launches himself in pursuit of Simmons. There is a lot of indecision in the group and no team takes command of the operations.

Simmons took advantage of this and flew to the finish line to take the win alone. A few seconds later, the yellow jersey group arrived, regulated in the sprint by Almeida on Onley .
