La 77ª edición del GP Oeste Francia-Plouay -prueba puntuable para el UCI World Tour– vio la victoria de Filippo Pozzato (Lampre-Merida) tras batir a Giacomo Nizzolo (Radioshack-Leopard) y Samuel Dumoulin (Ag2r La Mondiale) en una excepcional remontada del italiano en los últimos cien metros. Ventoso, octavo, fue el primer español clasificado.
La carrera la protagonizaron Nathnael Berhane (Europcar), Laegen Stake Vegard (Bretagne-Schuller), Julien Fouchard (Cofidis) y Etienne Tortelier (Sojasun), que consiguieron marcharsecasi de inicio y consiguieron tener una ventaja de 15 minutos antes de la primera reacción por parte del grupo, con Astana y Omega Pharma, cuando faltaban cinco vueltas para la conclusión de la prueba.
La ventaja de los escapados bajó rápidamente y fueron alcanzados a 30 kilómetros de la meta. A falta de 20 kilómetros, consiguen unos metros Tom Dumoulin (Argos-Shimano) y Dries Devenyns (OPQS) que llegan a tener una quincena de segundos de ventaja, pero su falta de cooperación les condenó.
A 10 kilómetros del final lo intentó Giovanni Visconti (Movistar) con Kristijan Koren (Cannondale) y Tim Wellens (Lotto), pero el bno les dejó espacio, alcanzándolos antes del último tramo. En la última subida el grupo se rompió y Greg Van Avermaet (BMC) atacó, siendo alcanzado a 500 metros de la meta. Sprint inevitable y victoria de Filippo Pozzato (Lampre-Merida).
