Si sblocca Eduard Michael Grosu e ottiene la sua prima vittoria alla Ronde Van Limburg, in Belgio. Il corridore rumeno, che difende i colori della francese Delko Marseille Provence, si è imposto in volata battendo il bergamasco Simone Consonni (Uae Team Emirates) e il danese Lasse Norman Hansen.

Prima della volata, la formazione emiratina aveva provato a far sua la corsa con un allungo deciso di Jasper Philipsen. Il giovane talento belga è partito da solo da gruppo ai -5 km, guadagnando un margine di 15″ sugli inseguitori, vantaggio non sufficiente per evitare di essere raggiunto quando al traguardo mancavano meno di 1000 metri.
 
Il commento di Consonni: “Mi è spiaciuto veder sfuggire il successo, il secondo posto è un poco amaro. Nella settimana dopo il Giro d’Italia ero un po’ stanco, ma oggi con il passare dei chilometri ho acquisito convinzione, nonostante la pioggia e una foratura ai -15 km. Purtroppo in volata Grosu ha saputo anticipare tutti benissimo nell’ultima curva e non sono riuscito a prendergli la ruota”.
