Ludovic Robeet and Damien Gaudin had been part of the initial eight-man breakaway of the race, and with 15 kilometers to go, they dropped their breakaway companions just before a late cobble sector. In the final two kilometers, with them being in sight of the peloton, Robeet dropped Gaudin with a hard acceleration to solo away for his second professional win. Gaudin managed to hold on and finish in second place ahead of the peloton. Meanwhile, Luca Mozzato, who had been one of the late attackers that unsuccessfully tried to bridge across to the leading duo, managed to just stay ahead of the peloton to finish third on the line ahead of Jordi Meeus, who was the fastest of the bunch behind.
