UnitedHealthcare's Sebastian Haedo won a photo finish sprint over Rui Oliveira (Axeon Hagens Berman) to claim victory on stage 2 of the Joe Martin Stage Race. Race leader Adam De Vos (Rally Cycling) finished in 15th place to retain the yellow jersey
"It was pretty hard. The team did very well. In the morning we made a plan to be in the front at 300 meters, when that happened, I was fourth wheel, a little far back but I made it work. I want to say thank you to my team for the victory," said Haedo after his fourth career win on the second Joe Martin stage.

The result was bittersweet for the 20-year-old Oliveira who is making his racing debut on American soil at the race.
"On one side, I am happy for being there at the finish. It means I am in good condition," he said. "But on the other side, to lose by centimeters is very frustrating. I was so very close to my first UCI victory."
