Simon Yates (Jayco-AlUla) won the AlUla Tour by just three seconds after winning the final stage atop the steep climb to Harrat Uwayrid.
Yates was three seconds behind Finn Fisher-Black (UAE Team Emirates) in the virtual general classification as the finish neared but secured a ten-second time bonus for winning the stage.
Fisher-Black was third in the sprint and so secured four bonus seconds but that left him three second down in the general classification.
21-year-old neo-pro William Lecerf (Soudal-Quick Step) was second on the stage and so collected six bonus seconds, to equal Fisher-Black in the overall classification and jump past him due to better placings.
