C’est l’Allemand André Greipel (Lotto Soudal ) qui a remporté la 1ère étape de ce Skoda Tour Du Luxembourg. Au tereme des 212,6 km, il devance au sprint massif du peloton les Italiens Enrico Gasparotto (Wanty Groupe Gobert) et Daniele Ratto (UnitedHealthcare Pro Cycling Team).
Pourtant, dès le début d’étape, 6 hommes prennent le large avec Matt Brammeier, Niki Terpstra (Etixx-QuickStep), Pit Schlecter (Leopard Development Team), Tom Devriendt (Wanty – Groupe Gobert), Federico Zurlo (UnitedHealthcare Pro Cycling Team) et Rick Ampler (D/Differdingen-Losch). Ils vont compter jusqu’à 5 min d’avance.
Mais sur ce terrain plat, le peloton est revenu sur les fuyards dans le final, malgré la résistance de l’Irlandais Matt Brammeier qui ne sera repris que dans les 2 derniers km.
Greipel remporte ce sprint et s’adjuge le général avec le jeu des bonifications à l’issue de cette 1ère étape pour 1 petite seconde d’avance sur Adrien Petit.
