The overwhelmingly best sprinter at the UAE Tour. On the fourth attempt to win a stage in a bunch sprint, the Soudal - Quick-Step rider has won for the third time and sealed what was a perfect race to end his campaign in the Middle East.
The breakaway of the day this time around consisted of a few riders that tried to pursuit a result: Henri Uhlig, Juan Pedro López, Eddy Finé, Marco Murgano and Jonas Rickaert formed the day's front group and tried to follow through the pan-flat day.
