È di Arnaud Demare la ruota più veloce sul traguardo di Hlohovec dove si è conclusa la terza tappa del Giro di Slovacchia. Dopo 200,6 km il portacolori della Groupama FDJ ha avuto la meglio su Riabushenko e Kristoff, entrambi della UAE, e Kung (lui pure della Groupama FDJ) cronometrati a due secondi con il leader della corsa Yves Lampaert (Deceuninck Quick Step) giunto quinto a cinque secondi.

Dopo che a 18 km dal traguardo erano stati raggiunti dal gruppo i 4 attaccanti di giornata e dopo alcune schermaglie nel plotone avvenute con la complicità del vento, il finale su uno strappo di 700 metri in costante ascesa ha visto la coppia dell’UAE Team Emirates lottare contro il velocista francese, capace di avere lo spunto vincente. Buona prestazione anche da parte di Tom Bohli, 7° al traguardo e ancora 5° nella classifica generale guidata da Yves Lampaert (Deceuninck-Quick Step).

Per Riabushenko, il secondo posto conferma l’attuale stato di forma concretizzato nella scorsa settimana con il successo nella Coppa Agostoni: “Gli ultimi 25 km di gara sono stati resi molto intensi dal vento, con l’apertura di alcuni ventagli che hanno lasciato in testa alla corsa non più di 40 corridori. Dal momento del frazionamento e fino all’imbocco dello strappo, non c’è stato più tempo per rifiatare. Noi dell’UAE Team Emirates siamo rimasti in quattro nel gruppo di testa: l’arrivo era adatto sia a Kristoff che a me, quindi abbiamo avuto modo di giocarsi ognuno le proprie carte, ma purtroppo Demare è stato inattaccabile“.
