Double victory for Visma! Matthew Brennan wins final Tour of Norway stage and overall classification

Team Visma | Lease a Bike are living golden days. Besides their success at the Giro d'Italia, today at the Tour of Norway they have both won the final stage and overall classification with 19-year old Matthew Brennan.

Eirik Vang Aas, Emil Toudal, Wessel Mouris and Toon Aerts formed the day's breakaway. The 130-kilometer stage was fully a circuit around the city of Stravanger, with a few short and explosive climbs but with a sprint as the likely scenario.

The last survivors of the breakaway were still in play for the stage win until the final climb which summited with 7 kilometers to go. Aerts was caught shortly after with Visma and Uno-X doing the bulk of the chasing work. It was a technical finale, and the truth is that Juan Sebastián Molano launched his sprint first but his chain fell off in a speed bump that was in the very last meters of the stage.

Alexander Kristoff took the head of the peloton then in the final sprint, but the Norwegian didn't have the dream end to his national Tour as in a photo-finish sprint, it was youngster Matthew Brennan who overtook him on the right and took yet another stage win - to add to the overall classification.
