In impressive fashion overall leader Tom Pidcock (Q36.5 Pro Cycling Team) made the best of the extremely steep climb to the Skyviews of Harrat Uwayrid to capture his second stage success and comfort his Green jersey. The British double Olympic champion in Mountain bike started pulling away halfway up the climb never to be caught despite the headwind on the very long straight to the finish. Pidcock crossed the line with a 12sec advantage over Alan Hatherly (Team Jayco AlUla) and Rainer Kepplinger (Bahrain Victorious). With one stage to go, he can enjoy a 29″ overall lead over his closest rival.
