Boasson Hagen and Boom share the honours
By Jean-François Quénet in Josselin

It's been a strong, albeit controversial, Tour de Bretagne for young super talents, with Lars Boom winning on general classification and former leader Edvald Boasson Hagen claiming the last stage victory that finished in an uphill bunch sprint in Josselin, amid some 15,000 cycling fans.
Maybe the local crowd would have liked to see a win by the Bretagne-Armor Lux squad, but it didn't happen. The squad's Stéphane Pétilleau and David Le Lay tried their best on the last day but the general level of the race was so high that there was always a team to close the gap to them. Bretagne-Armor Lux' sprinter Stéphane Bonsergent wasn't even close to Boasson Hagen on the finishing line.
"I didn't feel so good during the stage, but [felt] better and better as we came close to the end," said Norway's Boasson Hagen, who won both the first and last stage. "For the final sprint, I just stayed in second position and I went full gas 150 metres before the line. My team has worked hard all week, so I'm happy to bring a second stage win. It cancels my regrets after missing the start of the time trial because of a mechanical problem with my handlebar."
Without this incident, Boasson Hagen would have finished second overall: but Boom would have won, no matter what. He was clearly the strongest and the course favoured a Dutch rouleur this year.
"It's been a good week for me," Boom commented. "Only one day, I wasn't feeling very good. Last year I had won a 2.1 stage race in Portugal but this one is a very nice victory as well. Today was another hard day with a lot of démarrages. It made is jump all the time behind the breakaways.
"We tried to control," Boom added of the squad's tactics. "We didn't necessarily want to catch the guys who attacked but they never got a lot of time."
How it unfolded
|
Runner up Martijn Maaskant went in a 12-man breakaway that comprised Stéphane Pétilleau from Bretagne-Armor Lux but they never got much advantage. They were caught at the bottom of the Cadoudal climb (km 35) and Pétilleau accelerated again in Plumelec, the famous cycling town that will host the finish of stage 1 of the Tour de France next year.
It was only at kilometre 50 that Pétilleau managed to break clear, together with Yukiya Arashiro from Nippo-Meitan, which has definitely been the most aggressive team of the week. The duo pulled out a maximum lead of 50 seconds but were got caught at kilometre 86. Fabrice Jeandesbosz (Vendée U) countered but didn't last off the front.
At 104 kilometres, the trio of Maurice Vrijmoed (Van Vliet), Vojtech Hacecky (Dukla Praha) and Vincent Ragot (Côtes d'Armor) attacked. Czech rider Hacecky was soon dropped, but came across again with Johnny Hoogerland (Van Vliet), Stéphane Rossetto (CC Nogent) and Shinishi Fukushima (Nippo-Meitan), forming a group of six in the front before Hacecky broke his chain.

The five remaining riders entered the final circuit of Josselin with a 1.45 minute advantage and increased the lead by 30 seconds after Jeandesbosz and Jonathan Thiré (U Nantes-Atlantique) failed in an attempt to cross.
With 20 kilometres to go, Rein Taaramae (RO St-Amand) also tried to bridge the gap by himself but was caught as well as all the escapees, of which two 19 and 20 year-olds showed a lot of promises: Vrimoed and Rossetto.
With four kilometres to go David Le Lay (Bretagne-Armor Lux) and Jonathan Dayus (U Nantes-Atlantique) broke clear with race leader Lars Boom on their wheel. Dutchman Boom didn't take any chances because the second place of his team-mate Maaskant was in danger.
It was a sprint at the end with Edvald Boasson Hagen (Maxbo-Bianchi) being the strongest up the hill.
