Home rider Steff Cras caught the eye in front of 25,000 spectators with a breakaway in the final. In the final lap he was overtaken by Cees Bol, Cavendish's teammate.

In the 35th round, the organization of the post-Tour criterium had something special in store for 'King Cav': the British national anthem sounded through the speakers, a tribute to the 35 stages that the legendary Briton won in the Tour.
