The Pole precedes Mohoric and Kwiatkowski

The group appears compact in the last kilometre: the Ineos Grenadiers work perfectly for Kwiatkowski, but Rafal Majka is the first to start , the Pole manages to resist Mohoric's return and triumphs among his people.
Mohoric always keeps the yellow jersey with a 10" lead over Majka and J.Almeida.
