Julian Alaphilippe (Deceuninck-Quick-Step) has become the first rider since 2010 to win La Fleche Wallonne wearing the Rainbow jersey. The World Champion was at the start line of the 85th edition of the Belgian race -193.6 kilometres long- as one of the favourites to take the title. Deceuninck-Quick-Step was one of the teams to control the pace of the pack and every movement and on the last ascent of the day to the Mur de Huy, Alaphilippe followed the attack of Primoz Roglic (Jumbo-Visma) and at the last metres of the race he made an acceleration that the Slovenian could match.
