France?s Pierrick Fedrigo (Bouygues Telecom) won the Grand Prix Ouest-France ProTour race in Brittany on Monday, beating Alessandro Ballan (Lampre) and David Lopez Garcia (Caisse d'Epargne) in a sprint finish.
The three riders emerged from a fierce day of racing on the last lap. Lopez Garcia tried to avoid the sprint but the classy Fedrigo - who won a stage in the 2006 Tour de France and the French national title in 2005 - chased him down and then came past Ballan in the sprint.
