Egan Bernal finished seventh at the Faun-Ardèche Classic, while Ben Turner led home the Grenadiers at Omloop Nieuwsblad.

Faun-Ardèche Classic

Facing 11 climbs along the 187.6km race in France, an eight man break escaped within the first 20km, which reduced over time and was eventually caught with 45km remaining.

On the Mur de Royes, a 6.8km climb averaging 7.3%, eventual winner Paul Seixas (Decathlon CMA CGM Team) accelerated, bringing others with him, but were ultimately unable to hold his wheel.

Matteo Jorgenson (Visma – Lease A Bike), Jan Christen (UAE Team Emirates – XRG) and Lenny Martinez (Bahrain Victorious) kept on the chase, with Bernal pulling just behind in a group with Roman Gregoire (Groupama-FDJ), and Louis Barre (Visma-Lease a Bike).

Bernal continued to fight all the way to the end, finishing solo in seventh place.

Tomorrow, the team will ride the Faun-Drôme Classic, with Dorian Godon swapping out for Lucas Hamilton.
