British teenager Matthew Brennan claimed his first World Tour race win with a stunning victory on stage one of the Volta a Catalunya.<\/b><\/p>\n

The 19-year-old Visma-Lease a Bike rider hit the front with barely a metre to go after a punishing uphill sprint in wet conditions in Sant Feliu de Guixols.<\/p>\n

Alpecin-Deceuninck’s Tibor del Grosso had broken clear of the leaders and looked set for victory, only for Brennan to set off in pursuit and reel him in at the last.<\/p>\n

The Briton also managed to hold off sprint star Kaden Groves (Alpecin-Deceuninck), who was on his wheel throughout the chase in a dramatic conclusion to the 178.3km stage.<\/p>\n

It was a fourth race win in succession for Brennan, two coming for Visma’s development squad before he secured his first professional victory at the GP de Denain.<\/p>\n

The Volta’s second stage takes the riders 177.3km from Banyoles to Figueres on Tuesday, with the seven-stage race concluding in Barcelona on Sunday.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
