Stage 1 belongs to Bouhanni.

He crashed and managed to regain his composure.

 

Sprinting is healthy this season with so many potential winners.

Gianni Meersman had moved into the virtual overall lead but a crash scuppered his chances, and so Nacer Bouhanni lives to fill another day in the yellow jersey. A second successive second place sees Degenkolb cut the gap to two seconds, while the in-form Hofland lurks in third, four seconds down on Bouhanni. "The main goal is to get the yellow jersey with Wilco Kelderman and not with me," Hofland insists.

"I'm a little surprised because with 1 kilometre to go today I was a little too far behind," Hofland said. "I was in the wheel of John Degenkolb and with 200 metres I went a little early and I managed to surprise him. The last couple of weeks have been going pretty good for me and I hope to hold the form as long as possible."

Hofland said, “It’s a great victory. The team rode great today. The stage was hectic again, because there were some crosswinds. We all tried to be in the front at the dangerous points,” a happy Hofland said after the podium ceremony. “I wanted to surprise the bunch, so I made a long sprint. I jumped with 250 metres to go, and no one came around me. I am so happy, because this is a big race. This is Paris-Nice!”
