Team Dimension Data’s Edvald Boasson Hagen crossed the finish line first after stage two of Tour of Britain in Blyth today, but was relegated for an irregular sprint line.

The win was later awarded to Team Sky’s Elia Viviani after the race jury decided that Boasson Hagen’s sprint looked to have impeded him.
“All the team deserve this win and I hope to win again in the next few days too,” said Viviani.
LottoNL-Jumbo’s Dylan Groenewegen and Quick-Step Floors’ Fernando Gaviria rounded out the podium for the day.
Viviani also takes the overall lead with a time of 9:50:35. Orica-Scott’s Caleb Ewan is 4″ behind the leader, with Boasson Hagen a further 7″ behind.
