An abridged second stage of the AlUla Tour saw Tom Pidcock score his first victory for new team Q36.5, the British rider triumphing with a stinging 500-metre solo move on the uphill finish at Bir Jaydah Mountain.

Pidcock, who moved to the Swiss squad from Ineos Grenadiers over the winter, beat Rainer Kepplinger (Bahrain Victorious) and Alan Hatherly (Jayco-AlUla) to the line at the end of the mountainous 158km, which had earlier seen a full closing lap removed and the race neutralised due to issues with the road surface.
