Jonathan Tiernan-Locke (Endura Racing) otworzył i zamknął wyścig Tour Méditerranéen. Brytyjczyk na ostatnim, skróconym etapie pokonał Daniela Navarro (SaxoBank) oraz Stefano Garzelli`ego (Acqua & Sapone).
Wyścig tradycyjnie miał się zakończyć na wzniesieniu Mont Faron, jednak przez zimową aurę, skrócono dystans z 130 km do 77. Kolarze finiszowali na Col de Gardes.
Na samotny atak zaraz po starcie zdecydował się Johan Le Bon (Bretagne-Schuler). Francuz został jednak skasowany na 10 kilometrów przed finałowym podjazdem.
Z peletonu zaatakował mało znany Brytyjczyk Tiernan-Locke, który kilka dni temu wygrał już pierwszy etap francuskiej etapówki. Kolarz został prawdopodobnie zlekceważony przez resztę stawki i po jego akcji w zasadniczej grupie zapanowało lekkie zawahanie. Uciekinier wykorzystał te szansę i po solowej akcji pokonał o 28 sekund pomocnika Alberto Contadora, Daniela Navarro oraz byłego triumfatora Giro d`Italia, Stefano Garzelli`ego.
Ścigający się dla kontynentalnej ekipy Endura – Tiernan-Locke, wygrał również generalkę wyścigu. Najlepszy z Polaków Rafał Majka (SaxoBank), uplasował się na 23. pozycji.
