Cycling – Binckbank Tour ’18 Stage 5: Magnus Cort Wins
There was not really a minute for the riders to regain some composure as the last 40 kilometers consisted of constant attacks. Wellens started the race winning move when he assaulted from a world class gathering of seven, that included Greg Van Avermaet and Michael Matthews, with only 10 kilometers remaining.
With no coordinated pursuit behind, Wellens was permitted to construct a little lead over the riders. He spent very nearly five kilometers all alone before Stybar joined him.
Entertaining finale but as expected not selective. Beautiful to see Quick-Step failing once in a while. Great win for Gregor Muhlberger. #BinckBankTour https://t.co/Y8yQRerMML

And, as the pioneers of the race reached the last kilometer, Muhlberger saw his chance. The postponement in pursuing was sufficiently long to give the Bora-Hansgrohe rider an unassailable lead over the riders behind as he won his first stage on this tour.
