Broadcast from the first kilometre for the first time, Paris-Roubaix started with a flurry of attacks as riders tried to establish the breakaway that eventually went clear with the likes of Imanol Erviti (Movistar), Yaroslav Popovych (Trek-Segafredo) in his last race and Hayman. A crash just before sector three saw several groups emerge, with Fabian Cancellara and Peter Sagan caught out and forced to chase. On the Mons-en-Pévèle sector, Cancellara hit the deck and saw his dreams of a fourth𒐪 Roubaix disappear as it became clear the winner would come from the front group.

Alberto Contador sealed his fourth career Vuelta al Pais Vasco victory with a win in the final day time trial aheadℱ of Nairo Quintana (Movistar). The Tinkoff rider started the day second on GC, swapping places with Sergio Henao of Sky at the conclusion of the 16.5km Eibar test against the clock. Having finished third, second and second in his first three s🉐tage races of the season, Contador took his fist overall victory since last June's Route de Sud.

The Movistar Team dominated the Klasika 𒁏Primavera de Amorebieta, with Giovanni Visconti taking out the win from a four-man breakaway. The move started on the first of threဣe Montecalvo ascents. Alejandro Valverde and Gorka Izagirre joined Sergio Pardilla (Caja Rural) off the front, and then Visconti bridged across. After 60km off the front, the Italian proved quickest, and took home his first win since the 2013 Giro d'Italia, ending a three-year dry spell. Izagirre came in second, with Pardilla third.
