Matteo Trentin (Etixx – Quick Step) był najszybszy na trasie drugiego etapu Tour du Poitou-Charentes. Liderem pozostał Arnaud Gerard (Bretagne – Séché Environnement).
W drugim dniu francuskiej etapówki kolarze przemierzali odcinek Blanzac-Porcheresse – La Creche o długości prawie 195 kilometrów. Mieli do pokonania pięć górskich premii, w tym ostatnią na 35 kilometrów przed metą.
Od samego początku na czele kręciła piątka zawodników: Alexandre Blain (Team Marseille 13-KTM), Rudy Kowalski (Roubaix-Lille Métropole), Quentin Pacher (Armée de Terre), Ludwig De Winter (Wallonie-Bruxelles) i Christophe Laporte (Cofidis).
Na premiach górskich brylował Kowalski, który do jutrzejszego etapu przystąpi w roli lidera tej klasyfikacji. 60 kilometrów przed metą z peletonu skontrowali: Sep Vanmarcke i Paul Martens (obaj LottoNL-Jumbo) i Francesco Gavazzi (Southeast).
Wszystko zjechało się 35 kilometrów przed metą. Wtedy na czele kręciło około 30 zawodników, którzy pozostali z mocno rozciągniętego peletonu. Kolejne części peletonu jechały z małą stratą do uciekających zawodników.
Czołowa grupa nie dała się doścignąć i to spośród nich został wyłoniony zwycięzca etapowy. Najszybszy okazał się Matteo Trentin (Etixx – Quick Step). Drugi był Yauheni Hutarovich (Bretagne – Séché Environnement), a trzeci Sep Vanmarcke (Team LottoNL-Jumbo).
Liderem pozostał Arnaud Gerard (Bretagne – Séché Environnement).
