Jens Debusschere (Lotto Belisol Team) wygrał pierwszy etap i założył koszulkę lidera Tour de l’Eurométropole. Kolejne miejsca na podium zajęli Nikolas Maes (Omega Pharma-Quick Step) i Kenneth Vanbilsen (Topsport Vlaanderen-Baloise).
Pierwszy etap wyścigu Tour de l’Eurométropole (dawniej Circuit Franco-Belge) liczył 194, 8 km. Kolarze ścigali się z La Louvičre do Moorslede, a pierwsza część etapu ze względu na kilka krótkich podjazdów, skłaniała do wielu ataków.
W ucieczce dnia kręcili dziś: Michael Mřrkřv (Team Saxo-Tinkoff), Bert-Jan Lindeman (Vacansoleil – DCM), Jelle Wallays (Topsport Vlaanderen Baloise), Kristof Goddaert (IAM Cycling) i Frédéric Amorison (Crelan-Euphony). Jednak dzięki pracy ekip mających w swoim składzie sprinterów, ucieczka nie miała szans powodzenia.
Końcowy sprint to ładne zwycięstwo zawodnika Lotto – Belisol, Jensa Debusschere.Młody Belg to niedawny triumfator Kampioenschap van Vlaanderen. Drugie miejsce wywalczył Nikolas Maes (Omega Pharma-Quick Step), a trzeci był Kenneth Vanbilsen (Topsport Vlaanderen-Baloise). Dalsze miejsca zajęli tacy specjaliści od sprintu jak Arnaud Demare (FDJ.fr) czy John Degenkolb (Team Argos – Shimano).
