Hamburg - Hamburg, 221.3 km

André Greipel wins the 2015 Vattenfall Cyclassics

The race: With a 44.7 km/hr average speed, this was a fast day of racing in northern Germany.

The day was spiced with several break attempts, but none were allowed to travel very far up the road. The pack was together for a big romp to the line, minus speedster Mark Cavendish, a victim of a crash near the end.

With Alexander Kristoff displaying sparkling form, Katusha tried to control the approach to the line, but they ran out of gas before they ran out of race. Kristoff was the first to jump, but it was Greipel who timed his sprint perfectly to go past Kristoff and take the race win.
