Milan Menten gave Lotto-Dstny a decisive win in Dour at Le Samyn, beating Hugo Hofstetter (Arkea-Samsic) into second place and Edward Theuns (Trek-Segafredo) in third as a crash involving Kasper Asgreen and Dries de Bondt within the final kilometre fractured an already reduced peloton.

The 26-year-old Belgian’s win came after a day of aggressive back-to-back attacks and breakaways, where Menten’s teammate Victor Campenaerts was among the most active and aggressive in the pack.
