Robert Gesink (Rabobank), wygrał 4. etap Tour of Oman. Holender wskazując palcami na niebo zadedykował to zwycięstwo swojemu ojcu, który zmarł w październiku ubiegłego roku. Drugie miejsce zajął o dziwo Edvald Boasson Hagen (Sky Procycling), trzeci był Dries Devenyns (Quickstep Cycling Team). Gesink został nowym liderem wyścigu.
Dzisiejszy, decydujący etap z metą na wzniesieniu Jebel Akhdar przebiegał w całości pod dyktando ekipy Sky Procycling. Brytyjska ekipa stopniowo uszczuplała peleton na wietrze, tak by na finałowym podjeździe nie było żadnych niespodzianek. Można było spodziewać się dobrego występu ich sprintera, Boasson Hagena który dobrze radzi sobie na podjazdach, jednak niewielu w tym także i my wierzyło, że młody Norweg jest w stanie na takim etapie przyjechać na drugim miejscu. Jednak zacznijmy może od początku.
Aleksander Winokurow (Astana) próbował atakować na początku wzniesienia, ale szybko został złapany na pierwszym, stromym odcinku. Wtedy również z tyłu został lider wyścigu Matt Goss (HTC-Highroad). Juan Antonio Flecha (Team Sky) zaczął dyktować mocne tempo pod Boasson Hagena, jednak „podniebni” nie byli w stanie odeprzeć ataku Gesinka. Holender pewnie odjechał i sięgnął po pierwsze zwycięstwo w sezonie. Drugi na mecie Hagen stracił do niego aż 47 sekund, jednak to i tak znakomita postawa Norwega. Trzecie miejsce przypadło dla mało znanego Belga Dries`a Devenynsa.
Wszyscy faworyci do generalki przyjechali w czołówce, dużo stracili: Jakob Fuglsang (Leopard Trek) 02:04, Winokurow 02:17, Joaquin Rodriguez (Katiusza) 03:28 i Marco Pinotti (HTC-Highroad) stracił aż 7 minut i 33 sekundy.
W klasyfikacji generalnej, Gesink ma odpowiednio 44 i 57 sekund przewagi nad dzisiejszymi rywalami z etapowego podium.
Jutro na zawodników czeka 17,2 km jazda na czas.
