Alpecin-Fenix have nailed it and obtained another win as Jasper Philipsen won the third stage of the Tour of Turkey and as a consequence is also the new leader of the race.
It was another flat day, so a bunch sprint would be very hard to prevent on this day. The race will enter the mountains tomorrow, however the sprinters still have a hold of the race as there will be three different leaders at the end of three stages. Crashes once again wiped out several riders in the final kilometers, and in the run-up to the line Team DSM rode strongly and put Alberto Dainese in pole position for the dash to the line.
The Italian had speed but was surprised from behind by Kaden Groves who launched his sprint, but was overtaken by Jasper Philipsen in sight of the line. Global 6 Cycling's Miguel Angel Fernandez stormed to an impressive third place. .
