Romain Combaud was the fastest for Team DSM in the bunch sprint on the fourth and final stage at the Tour of Norway taking 20th place, slipping one place back to 11th in GC after count back on finishing places on the stage.
The stage was always touted to be a sprint finish with a much flatter profile than the previous days and by the finish that’s exactly how it panned out but the peloton had to work for it after a break of seven went clear early on and rode well out front.
Seven became three in the closing kilometres as the peloton piled on the pressure and then in the final eight kilometres the catch was made and all eyes turned to a sprint. Combaud put in one final effort in the sprint and took his fourth top 20 placing of the race.
