The Race: Europcar racer Christophe Kern left the day's break in search of personal glory. He was caught at the red kite, setting things up for a big sprint.
Manuel Belletti just barely beat another Europcar rider, Kevin Reza, and Björn Leukemans for the stage win.
Overnight GC leader Mauro Finetto finished 19th, in the front group. This preserved his overall lead and made him the winner of the 2014 Tour du Limousin by seven seconds over Björn Leukemans.

Wednesday, August 20: Stage 2, Trélissac - Grèzes, 171.8 km
The Race: The day's break was caught with about 15 kilometers to go. Sylvain Chavanel and several other riders tried solo fliers, but all were caught.
In an uphill finish, Europcar rider Cyril Gautier finished about a bike length ahead of Davide Rebellin (who used to be a genius at these finishes). Rein Taaramae followed Rebellin with a good gap between them, though the officials gave all three the same time.
Race leader and winner of the first stage, Björn Leukemans, finished in the first chasing group, just two second behind Gautier, more than good enough to preserve his overall lead. He now leads Mauro Finetto by fourteen seconds.

Tuesday, August 19: Stage 1, Limoges - Brive, 176.3 km
The Race: Before the first stage even started, Europcar's Thomas Voeckler was hit by a car as he rode to the start. It has been confirmed that Voeckler suffered a broken collarbone and will not be able to ride the World Championships.
Björn Leukemans won his first race of the season when he triumphed in Brive to win the Tour du Limousin's first stage. With the time bonus, Leukemans leads Stéphane Rossetto by twelve seconds.
Leukemans won the Tour du Limousin in 2011. Christophe Kern (Europcar) has attempted a flier in the closing kilometers, but was overtaken and finished fourth.
