El luxemburgués Jean-Pierre Drucker (BMC) se ha impuesto en la primera etapa en línea del Tour de Luxemburgo (Luxembourg-Bascharage, 172km) y lo ha hecho por delante de Timoty Dupont (Verandas) y Aksel Nömmela (Leopard), segundo y tercero, respectivamente. Cuarto ha sido el belga Ber Van Lerberghe, y quinto ha acabado Greg Van Avermaet (BMC). El mejor español es Luis Ángel Maté (Cofidis), 43º hoy en la etapa con el mismo tiempo del ganador, y 48º en la general, a 22 segundos de Drucker.
Después de una salida fulgurante, a los 20 km se escaparon tres corredores hasta alcanzar una buena renta de unos cinco minutos tras los primeros 60km de etapa. En la segunda mitad de la etapa, la ventaja de los tres corredores de cabeza comenzó a caer de forma constante. El equipo de Damien Gaudin (Armee de Terre) era el que iba marcando el ritmo en la parte delantera del grupo.
Cuando el pelotón cruzó la línea por primera de las tres veces que había que pasar por el circuito de Bascharage, a 35 km de distancia, la ventaja se había reducido a poco más de dos minutos.
El BMC de Drucker fue uno de los equipos que ayudó en la persecución y, cuando la campana sonó para señalar el comienzo de la última vuelta, los dos ciclistas que aún estaban escapados ya estaban a la vista. Así pues, a 10km del final ya estaban engullidos, y el sprint fue inevitable. El BMC trabajó para mantener a sus punta de lanza en carrera, con Van Avermaet y el líder Drucker, y fue el luxemburgués el que, a falta de 300m para la meta, saltó a por el sprint.
Próxima etapa:
Puntos TOP Ciclo 21: Luis Ángel Maté, 2 (primer español etapa 2.HC).
