Il Czech Tour incorona Marc Hirschi e Julian Alaphilippe. Lo svizzero della UAE Team Emirates conferma e conquista sia la maglia gialla che la verde, con la UAE a firmare la doppietta in classifica con Diego Ulissi secondo. È invece il francese della Soudal Quick-Step ad aggiudicarsi la quarta tappa, la Šumperk-Šternberk da 129 chilometri, proprio davanti a Hirschi, con Sergio Higuita (Red Bull Bora) a completare il podio sia di tappa che di classifica.
LA CRONACA
L'atto finale in Repubblica Ceca prevede una serie di saliscendi che iniziano nel primo segmento, proseguono col GPM di Jirikov e culminano con un quadruplo muro e traguardo al termine della discesa. In una giornata resa umida da piogge sparse, vanno in fuga in sei: Mats Wenzel (Lidl Trek Future), Charlie Paige (TDT Unibet) e Lukas Kubis (Elkov Kasper) già visti in avanscoperta nei giorni scorsi, con loro Michal Schuran (ATT Investments) che fa definitivamente sua la maglia a pois, Itamar Einhorn (Israel Premier Tech) che salì sul podio giovedì nella volata inaugurale, infine Aaron Van Poucke della Flanders Baloise.
I fuggitivi prima si dimezzano, poi Kubis si guadagna il premio di super-combattivo tentando la zampata solitaria sul primo passaggio del circuito, ma viene ripreso sul terzo nonché penultimo a 12 km dall'arrivo. A contendersi il successo è un gruppetto di leader ridotto all'osso sia dalle pendenze che dai ventagli, dal quale ai -6km (anticipando l'ultima asperità) evade la maglia bianca Marco Brenner. Il tedesco della Tudor viene però ripreso allo scollinamento e scatta in contropiede Julian Alaphilippe, uscito di classifica ieri per tentare l'assalto a questa frazione conclusiva, ma è Hirschi in persona però a rispondere. I due danno vita a un bel duello davanti a uno sparuto drappello d'inseguitori, i cui nomi e piazzamenti potete vedere qui di seguito.
