The Belgian Mauro Keppens (Isorex Cycling Team) won the mountain classification and Simon Santana-Grammerstorf (Young Lions Nord) came out on top in the sprint classification.

The 3rd stage of the Youngclassics goes to Simon SANTANA-GRAMMERSTOR
At 70 kilometers, the third stage of the BEMER Youngclassics was the most demanding this year. After a mass crash not long after the start, in which the winner of this stage was also involved, the German Simon Santana-Grammerstot (Young Lions North) was able to fight his way back to the front and won with 1 hour, 39 minutes and 15 seconds. Second and third place went to Julius Lovstrup Birkedal (Isorex Cycling Team) and Lenny Karstedt (LV Sachsen).
