BMC Racing produced a commanding performance in the last team time trial to enable Rohan Dennis to regain the lead of the Eneco Tour with a win in stage five.

The American-registered team covered the 20.9 kilometre course in a time of 23:11 to go six points ahead of rivals Etixx QuickStep, who are now in second place.

The win saw Dennis reclaim the lead he had lost to world champion Peter Sagan (Tinkoff) on Thursday and move 16 seconds ahead of BMC team-mate Taylor Phinney.
