Maxim Iglinskiy wins Liège - Bastogne - Liège

Maxim Iglinskiy (Astana) took his first Classic win in Liège-Bastogne-Liège

Vincenzo Nibali crossed the finish line 21 seconds later, and Iglinskiy's teammate Enrico Gasparatto was third, winning the chase group's sprint.

Last year's winner Philippe Gilbert (BMC), who had long been part of that group, relaxed when he realized he had no chance and rolled easily over the line in 16th place.
