Oman: Kristoff claims stage 6, Nibali seals overall

MUSCAT, Oman (AFP) — Katusha’s Alexander Kristoff nabbed his fifth victory of 2016 Sunday in the sixth and final stage of the Tour of Oman, easily defeating Giant-Alpecin’s Zico Waeytens in a sprint. Waeytens’ teammate Soren Kragh Andersen took third.

Moments after Kristoff crossed the line, Astana’s Vincenzo Nibali arrived at the finish safely in the bunch to seal the GC title. Romain Bardet (Ag2r La Mondiale) earned runner-up honors, while Nibali’s Astana teammate Jakob Fuglsang rounded out the overall podium.

After an aggressive start with several breakaway attempts, Amaël Moinard (Ag2r La Mondiale), Gregor Mühlberger (Bora – Argon 18), Gianni Meersman (Etixx – Quick-Step), Pieter Vanspeybrouck (Topsport Vlaanderen – Baloise), Daniel Eaton (UnitedHealthcare), Jaroslaw Marycz (CCC Sprandi Polkowice), and Jesper Asselman (Roompot – Oranje Peloton) made it clear to form the day’s main escape. However, with 40km of mostly flat roads closing out the day, a determined Katusha squad had no intention of allowing the breakers to stay away.

The peloton kept the escapees on a tight leash, never allowing the gap to grow above 2:30. As the kilometers ticked down, Katusha and Wanty – Groupe Gobert set the pace in the bunch and gradually closed down the breakaway’s advantage. Meersman, Minard, Muhlberger, and Vanspeybrouck attacked their companions inside the final 20km, but they were all reeled in with 5km to go, setting up a sprint.

With his Katusha squad bringing him into position for the high-speed finale, Kristoff made it look easy ahead of Giant-Alpecin teammates Waeytens and Kragh Andersen. Kristoff’s win was his second stage victory in the 2016 Tour of Oman and it was a fourth stage win for Norway, with Edvald Boasson Hagen also taking two stages this year.

“In the last lap there were some attacks in front, but Michael [Mørkøv] and Marco [Haller] controlled everything,” Kristoff said. “In the final Marco again did a phenomenal job from 2km to the last 500 meters, while later it was Jacopo Guarnieri, who led me out really well until 200 meters to go. For me it was just a question of keeping the speed and finalizing this day with a victory.”

With a Ronde van Vlaanderen defense on tap this spring, Kristoff couldn’t have hoped for a better prep campaign in February.

“We already have five wins this season and this is a great start for us,” he said. “For sure, we are coming now for the classics with confidence. I think we are ready. The team looks strong and we will be at top level there.”

Nibali, who took second place in the race four years ago, held on to the overall leader’s red jersey to take his first career title in Oman, closing out the race 15 seconds ahead of Bardet on GC. Fuglsang took third, 24 seconds back.

“I am a lot more experienced now and this time I cycled more intelligently,” Nibali said. “On the most important climb, the Green Mountain, I was able to bide my time and attack at the end.

“We then only had to stay in control of the race over the last two days.”

With an upcoming Giro bid in his sights, Nibali was happy to get a win in February.

“The last two years, as I had the Tour at the back of my mind, I opted to keep things quiet early in the season, but it was difficult not being able to express myself completely,” he said. “Everything becomes simpler in organizing your season when you get off to a good start.”
