Rui Costa finished safely in the bunch to cement his 3rd place podium, to add to his other 3rd place picked up at the Saudi Tour last week. Jan Hirt took the overall win.

Gaviria conquested Tour of Oman stage 6 atop on his Colnago bike equipped with Campagnolo Super Record EPS electronic groupset and with Campagnolo Bora Ultra WTO 60.
Gaviria : “ I’m really happy to take the last stage here in Oman. It’s been a good week for me and the team. I’m happy because my team worked well and stayed focussed on winning the stage and we were able to deliver. From the beginning we tried to take control of the race and luckily I had good legs in the finish and could take the sprint. It was a nice week: one of the beauties of this sport is to travel and discover new countries and cultures. So to ride in amazing places like Oman is great and we’ll hope to be back next year.”
