Race Highlights
In the stage seven finale, Etixx-Quick Step and Tinkoff worked hard on the front of the peloton in the final kilometres for Maximiliano Richeze and Peter Sagan respectively.
But Richeze faded fast after hitting the front in the sprint, allowing Mareczko and teammate Elia Viviani to battle it out for the win.
Sagan crossed the line in fourth place having never really contesting the win, with Jason Lowndes (Drapac) completing the podium.
