A beautiful battle between the attackers and the chasing peloton characterized the second stage of the Tour de Bretagne. And this time it was the breakaway riders who celebrated, holding on by just a few seconds at the finish of the Bains-sur-Oust - Missillac stage, 168 km long.

The victory went to Norwegian Halvor Dolven (Lotto-Groupe Wanty), who beat his compatriot Sebastien Veslum (Team Drali-Repsol) and Frenchman Léandre Huck (Van Rysel-Roubaix).

Four seconds back came the main group, led in by Trentino rider Alessio Magagnotti, winner of yesterday's stage.
