The final stage, and Ignatiev is in a commanding position to win this race
The KoM is probably safe for Francis Mourey - but he goes off on a solo attack nonetheless
He gathers more points and definately secures it, while being chased by Ma and Costagli
Da Luz, Vitor, Gomes Colinas, WIlliams and iKhalmuratov make it a chasing group of 7 - but a chasing group it would remain
The action from the peleton comes with 33km to go - led by Ungatiev
With him are Clement, Cornu, Devenyns, Bertagnolli, Taaramae and De Maar - but not Reus!
They catch the 7 man break chase group as Ignatiev attacks once again
No gaps stick but Ignatiev is at it again as the now group of 14 at long last catches Mourey
This is not looking good for 2nd overall Reus though - over a minute behind his rivals and soon to be caught by the bunch
Remaining at the forefornt, Ignatiev is key in splitting up the front group. At first only De Maar, Devenyns and Taaramae can follow
Bertagnolli, Clement and Cornu also get up to them though, just
Ignatiev is still on the front - it seems pointless. He has the best sprint in the group so could easily win a sprint, his overall seems secure, and yet he wastes energy! Now leading out
And no matter how strong a sprinter you are, at this stage those tucked in your wheel are better placed. And here goes Taaramae
De Maar challenges Taaramae
And De Maar wins!
Ignatiev secures overall - 2 stages and never out of the Top 5 in a stage, but he should really have made it 3 stages here. Oh and he takes the Points and Young Rider jerseys too.
Reus is back in the pack that Docker and Ben Nasser lead in at 1'23. He drops from 2nd to 7th as Taaramae moves up to 2nd overall snd some consolation for Jack Wolfskin in that they remain on the podium, with Cornu
