VIDEO: Lenny Martínez wins Classic Var; Tobias Johannessen loses victory on the line in shocking way following early celebration

Lenny Martínez is the winner of the newly-created Classic Var. The Groupama-FDJ rider took the victory over Tobias Johannessen, who built the winning gap but then lost it on the line due to an early celebration.

The French race finished atop Mont Faron. Johannessen entered the final meters in front and celebrated. Seemingly he pedaled slowly afterwards in belief that the finish line was right ahead but miscalculated the arrival. Martínez went through Romain Bardet - who finished third - in a dash to the line and ended up taking a surreal victory.
