In just his second race for Ineos Grenadiers, 20-year-old Artem Shmidt showed the WorldTour peloton his potential with an 185 km day in the breakaway at the Grand Prix Cycliste de Québec.
The American bridged across to a four-man group with 185 km to go in the Canadian one-day race alongside Frank van den Broek (DSM-Firmenich PostNL). The attack then stayed away until the 14.4km to go mark, when UAE Team Emirates reeled them back in.
