Markel Beloki won the 21st edition of the Tour Alsace, which concluded this morning in Champ du Feu with the fifth stage won by French rider Aubin Sparfel (Decathlon AG2R La Mondiale Devo) ahead of Belgian Schoofs and Australian Ward. A final victory for the son of a cycling legend Beloki, who obtained his first significant achievement in a 2.2 class stage race. The Spaniard, who raced for EF Education Aevolo, a satellite team of the World Tour, finished ahead of Eeman and Mariault in the general classification. For Italy, VF Group Bardiani Csf Faizanè performed well, placing Tolio and Covili among the top twenty.
