Mauri Vansevenant (Soudal-QuickStep) claimed a solo victory in the toughest stage of the Tour de Luxembourg, ousting Mathieu van der Poel (Alpecin-Deceuninck) from the overall lead thanks to his late breakaway move.

Looking repeatedly behind him in the technical finale in Diekirch, Vansevenant crossed the line 18 seconds ahead of closest pursuer Davide Formolo (Movistar), with a Van der Poel-led group blasting across the line at 41 seconds.
