Roux fires as Felline clinches overall

The fifth and final stage of the Circuit de Lorraine was won by Frenchman Anthony Roux (Française des Jeux) in a bunch sprint, with Italian Fabio Felline (Footon-Servetto) coming second and Lloyd Mondory (AG2R) third. Felline, who has been wearing the yellow jersey since stage two, has won the overall event in front of Frenchman Pierre Rolland (Bouygues-Telecom) and fellow Italian Matteo Carrara (Vacansoleil).

Similarly to the previous days, the last stage from Metz to Hayange was very nervous and fast, with one attack leading to another. Those breakaways who managed to get a gap soon were caught for lack of cooperation, and the stage came down to a sprint.
