Robert Gesink (Rabobank) odniósł swoje pierwsze zwycięstwo w jednodniowej imprezie ProTour. Holender triumfował w Grand Prix Cycliste de Montreal, pokonując Petera Sagana (Liquigas-Doimo) oraz Rydera Hesjedala (Garmin-Transitions).
Wyścig Grand Prix Cycliste de Montreal po raz pierwszy w historii gościł najlepszych kolarzy świata. Organizatorzy dla zawodników przygotowali 12,6 km okrążenie z trzema interwałowymi podjazdami : Cote Camilien-Houde, Cote de la Polytechnique oraz hopka na której znajdowała się linia mety, Avenue du Pac. W sumie peleton musiał zmierzyć się 15 razy z rundą.
Gesink zaatakował z około 40 osobowej grupki, na pierwszym podjeździe ostatniej rundy, Camilien-Houde. Za Holendrem podążyło jeszcze siedmiu kolarzy: Sagan i Hesjedal plus Edvald Boasson Hagen (Team Sky), Samuel Sanchez (Euskaltel-Euskadi), Mauro Santambrogio (BMC Racing), Zubeldia Haimar (RadioShack) i Maxime Monfort (Columbia-HTC).
Następne hopki przyniosły kolejne ataki, jednak przewaga jaką wypracował Gesink zapewniła mu zwycięstwo. Cztery sekundy za kolarzem Rabobanku przyjechał rewelacyjny Słowak, Peter Sagan oraz Hesjedal.
