Race leader Pascal Ackermann increased his advantage by winning stage two of the Tour de Pologne in Katowice on Sunday.

The German weaved a route through the traffic in a sprint finish to complete the 156km stage in 3 hours, 16 minutes and 39 seconds and finish ahead of Columbian Alvaro Hodeg (Quick-Step Floors) and Italian Giacomo Nizzolo (Trek-Segafredo).

It was his second consecutive victory and Ackermann leads overall by eight seconds from Hodeg thanks to the time bonuses.
