Astana sigue en racha. El equipo kazajo ha celebrado un doble triunfo en la octava etapa del Tour de Ruanda, de 61.7 kilómetros con salida y llegada en Kigali, la capital del país , y con tres pasos por el temible Muro de Kigali, de 400m al 14.5% de pendiente media y sobre firme adoquinado. Rodrigo Contreras se ha impuesto en solitario y su compañero, el eritreo Merhawi Kudus, se ha proclamado ganador final de la ronda 2.1 del UCI África Tour. Astana alcanza las quince victorias esta temporada.
Se trata del primer triunfo de Contreras como profesional. El colombiano ha lanzado un ataque en solitario y Kudus ha hecho de secante, vigilando al resto de favoritos con su defensa del maillot amarillo. El ganador final ha sprintado por la segunda posición y Alessandro Fedeli (Delko Marseille Provence) ha terminado en la tercera plaza. El primer español ha sido el gallego Pablo Torres (Interpro Cycling Academy), que ha cruzado la meta en el 18º puesto a 1:35 del vencedor, mientras que el catalán David Lozano (Novo Nordisk) ha acabado 19º a 1:43.
En la general, Kudus ha aumentado su ventaja sobre Rein Taaramäe (Direct Energie), segundo clasificado a diez segundos, y Matteo Badilatti (Israel Cycling Academy) ha completado el podio a 18. Lozano, sexto a 4:08, ha sido el primer español, y Torres ha finalizado la ronda africana en la 25ª posición a 22:17.
