Samuel Dumoulin (Jean Delatour) has finally added a second Avenir stage win to his swag this year, taking the final stage in a bunch sprint in La Crau. The small Frenchman avoided two crashes in the final to finish ahead of Moritz Veit (German National Team) and Assan Bazayev (Kazakhstan National Team) at the end of the 128 km stage. Basque rider Egoi Martinez (Euskaltel-Euskadi) finished 21st and thus claimed the overall victory in the Tour de l'Avenir.

The final stage was run over two laps of a 64 km circuit around La Crau, with 81 riders taking the start. The pace was very high from the beginning, with a number of attacks trying to get clear. Euskaltel-Euskadi controlled everything, until Bazayev attacked after 20 km. He was joined by Calzati (Barloworld), Leblacher (CA) and Ljungblad (Swedish National Team) after 29 km, and the four leaders built up a 25" advantage.

After the côte de Rocbaron (km 36) they were caught as Samuel Dumoulin drove the peloton hard, splitting it into two parts. After 44 km, a larger break went with Lequatre (C.A), Sébastien Talabardon (BigMat), Ljungblad, Berthou (Barloworld), Kohl (Rabobank), Willems (Vlaanderen), Day (Carvalhelhos) and Veit (German National Team). They managed a maximum lead of 42 seconds but broke apart when Berthou and Lequatre attacked before the sprint at halfway (km 64).

Only Jonas Ljungblad managed to fight his way back, and there were three leaders at the 77 km mark with 40" advantage over the peloton. The gap was too small though, and they were finally caught before the côte de Rocbaron (km 101). After that, the bunch more or less remained together until the finish in La Crau, where there was a crash with 2 km to go, and then another one in the final sprint involving Vastaranta and Vanlandschoot.

Dumoulin avoided the crash to win the stage in front of Veit and Bazayev, while Egoi Martinez could raise his arms as he crossed the line further back as the overall winner of the "Tour of the Future".
