Jean-Christophe Peraud (Ag2r-La Mondiale) not only won the 3rd and final stage of this year’s Criterium International today, but in doing so, the French also sealed the overall race victory.
Peruad claimed today’s stage, after crossing the finish on the Col de l’Ospedale – 15 seconds ahead of his closets rival, runner-up Pierrick Fedrigo (Bretagne-Seche-Environnement).
Meanwhile, third place finisher, Thibaut Pinot (FDJ), crossed the line a further second behind the leader.
Peraud won the overall title of the three-day event, ahead of Pinot by 10 seconds, while yesterday’s time trial winner, Fabio Felline (Trek Factory Racing), round out the final podium in third, at 18 seconds back.
