Vincent Lavenu: «We couldn't have asked for anything better.»
«The goal for the day was to win for the AG2R CITROËN team. There were a few attacks early on in the race, but I knew I had to be patient. Having won here last year, I knew how to race and knew it was important to be at the front in the final stretch with its narrow, winding roads. I was confident I could win the sprint, I had good legs. With Geoffrey Bouchard's third place, we put in a great team performance. It's very satisfying to win, now we're heading for the French Championships.»[/su_quote]

Geoffrey Bouchard completed the podium in third place. Greg Van Avermaet finished eighth. «The AG2R CITROËN team was the favourite today and we rose to the challenge throughout the day, particularly Greg Van Avermaet and Oliver Naesen. Dorian Godon finished superbly, it's great to share the podium with him.»
