A late attack by Rui Costa (Intermarché-Circus-Wanty) netted the Portuguese rider both the final stage and the overall victory of the Volta a la Comunitat Valenciana.
The former World Champion made his move in the final two kilometres in a short, punishing stage 5, pushing clear with Thymen Arensman (Ineos Grenadiers) of a break of nine containing all the main favourites and race leader Giulio Ciccone (Trek-Segafredo).
Costa then outsprinted Arensman in the finish and with enough margin to inch clear of Ciccone overall on GC.
Intermarché-Circus-Wanty have now accumulated an impressive six wins at the start of this season, including three in the Volta a la Comunitat Valenciana.
More to come.
