The Race: Greg van Avermaet had a fine day racing in Belgium. He crossed the line ten seconds ahead of his nearest chaser and a minute and a half in front of the first group.

This gave van Avermaet not only the stage victory, he also became the final overall winner of the 2015 Tour of Belgium.

Yesterday's stage winner, Arnaud Demare, suffering from food poisoning, had to abandon today.
