Renewi Tour | Jonathan Milan outsprints Jasper Philipsen once again to win stage 3

The Renewi Tour has seen it's second bunch sprint today and the outcome was the same. Jonathan Milan was the winner of stage 3 after outsprinting Jasper Philipsen once again.

An incredibly flat stage, there wasn't ever going to be many opportunities for anyone but the sprinters. In the breakaway of the day were Belgian quartet Ward Vanhoof, Aaron van Poucke, Warre Vangheluwe and Jordy Bouts. The group kept their distance to the peloton but there was an ongoing healthy chase.

With 13 kilometers to go Vagheluwe of Soudal - Quick-Step set off the front in the breakaway and kept moving to the finish solo. However he was never going to realistically make it, as the peloton quickly approached in a full-on fight for positioning. The catch was made with four kilometers to go.

The lack of quality images from TV broadcast made it very difficult to understand what happened in the final kilometers but it was possible to see Mathieu van der Poel doing the leadout, with Jonathan Milan and Jasper Philipsen in the wheels - exactly as was the case on stage 1.

Well the outcome was also the same. The Italian powerhouse sprinter remains unbeatable in these sprints, he has taken his second win of the week beating Philipsen to the line once again. Max Walscheid took third place o the day, quite far behind the top two.
