Shmidt wins the Classique Dunkerque on a big day for Netcompany-Ineos

While his teammate Filippo Ganna was winning a Grand Tour stage in Italy, Artem Shmidt took a one-day victory for Netcompany-Ineos on Tuesday at the UCI 1.Pro-rated Classique Dunkerque.

Shmidt put in a solo strike to take the win at the end of the lumpy 202 km day, with Pierre Gautherat (Decathlon-CMA CGM) arriving four seconds later to take runner-up honors ahead of Jordi Meeus (Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe).
