Un colpo da maestro, quello del ventiseienne danese Alexander Salby sul traguardo della quinta e ultima tappa dello ZLM Tour, la Oosterhout - Oosterhout di 159,4 km. Il portacolori della Bingoal WB ha firmato un attacco formidabile a poco più di 400 metri dal traguardo, non una volata lunga ma un vero e proprio scatto da "proiettile" e ha saputo resistere sul traguardo al tentativo di rimonta di Gleb Syritsa (Astana Qazaqsatan) e Jakub Mareczko (Corratec Vini Fantini) che hanno chiuso nell'ordine.

Il successo finale nella corsa olandese è andato al belga Rune Herregodts, della Intermarché Wanty, alla quinta vittoria in carriera.

LA CORSA. Una ridda di ventagli e cadute pure in quest'ultima giornata olandese, dalla quale in un primo momento evadono in tre: Mirco Maestri (Polti Kometa), Mike Teunissen (Intermarché Wanty) ed Edward Planckaert (Alpecin Deceuninck). Troppo pericolosi per la classifica, allora la maglia gialla Herregodts va a recuperarli e a metà gara riparte in fuga un nutrito drappello che stavolta include anche il leader: insieme a Maestri, a Teunissen con Herregodts e a Planckaert, ci sono Simon Dehairs e Fabio Van den Bossche (compagni di quest'ultimo, a formare un terzetto Alpecin), un altro terzetto come Luca Colnaghi, Filippo Magli e Samuele Zoccarato (VF Group Bardiani Csf Faizanè), Tom Bohli (Tudor), Rudiger Selig (Astana), Timo De Jong (Volker Wessels) e Martijn Rasenberg (Parkhotel Valkenburg) già visto in avanscoperta nei giorni scorsi.

Al km 100 cadono Herregodts e Selig, davanti rimangono in undici con Bohli e Maestri a spingere e godersi primo e secondo posto virtuali. A dieci chilometri dall'arrivo, tuttavia, i sogni s'infrangono sul rientro del plotone, tirato soprattutto dalla DSM della maglia verde Casper Van Uden. Le posizioni della vigilia e il copione previsto di un epilogo a ranghi compatti sono salvi. Anche se Teunissen, conquistando gli sprint intermedi, strappa proprio a Maestri la top-10 nella generale, e anche se Salby rompe le uova nel paniere ai velocisti puri.
