Michael Matthews (Jayco-AlUla) powered to his third victory within the Grand Prix de Québec, out-sprinting Biniam Girmay (Intermarché-Wanty) and Rudy Molard (Groupama-FDJ).
All eyes have been on Tour de France and Giro d’Italia champion Tadej Pogačar (UAE Team Emirates) and defending champion Arnaud De Lie (Lotto Dstny) however the pair burned out their matches with an assault on the base of the kilometre-long ultimate climb.
When the transfer was extinguished by a surge from Bahrain Victorious, Matthews slotted onto the wheels and waited for the prefect second to launch his dash. Tiesj Benoot (Visma-Lease a Bike) tried to pre-empt the dash however pale as Matthews got here previous, and the Australian simply held off a cost from Girmay, who left his dash too late, whereas Benoot was handed by Molard to overlook the rostrum.
