Kristijan Durasek wins Tour de Suisse stage 2

The Race: On the hilly final loop, a small group of quality riders that included Geraint Thomas, Kristijan Durasek, Tom Dumoulin, Daniel Moreno and Simon Spilak managed to bridge up to a small break, creating the day's winning move.

From this escape, Lampre-Merida rider Kristijan Durasek took a late flyer, managing to cross the line four seconds ahead of his former breakaways.

Because overnight GC leader Dumoulin had been attentive and been part of the front group of escapees, he finished ninth and retained his overall leadership, seven seconds ahead of second-place Geraint Thomas.
