Derved var det stort set uundgåeligt, at etapen endte i en massespurt, hvor Allan Davis (Quick Step) endnu engang viste sig som den stærkeste. Den australske rytter henviste Graeme Brown (Rabobank) og José Joaquin Rojas Gil (Caisse d'Epargne) til de næste pladser.

Team Saxo Banks Stuart O’Grady hentede en ny fjerdeplads på etapen og er derved fortsat placeret på løbets samlede tredjeplads, men måtte afgive pointtrøjen til Allan Davis. Det danske hold markerede sig ligeledes med angreb fra Jens Voigt og Nicki Sørensen i slutfasen, der dog som de øvrige blev kørt ind.

Etapen blev endnu engang ramt af et stort styrt, hvor Aaron Kemps (UniSA), Gert Steegmans (Team Katusha), Bernhard Eisel (Team Columbia - High Road), Guillaume Blot (Cofidis), Olivier Kaisen (Silence - Lotto), Scott Davis (UniSA), Markus Eichler (Team Milram) og Willem Stroetinga (Team Milram) alle var en tur i asfalten.
