The Race: Niki Terpstra is in superb form for the northern classics. By the time the race reached the Oude Kwaremont, there were eight riders off the front. On the Paterberg (35 km to go) Niki Terpstra flew away, driving past the break and establishing a lead the others were powerless to close.

Stijn Devolder (Trek), Alejandro Valverde (Movistar), Nicki Sorensen (Tinkoff-Saxo) with Terpstra teammate Gert Steegmans (Omega Pharma) coming along, chased and got within a quarter-minute, but they were caught by the pack and Terpstra soloed to the finish.
