    Kudus trying but pedalling tiny gear. Rebellin on his wheel. Rein with 16secs. Yates bridged. 3km

    Everyone watching behind. Fortune favours the brave.

    Come on Yates, such young talent. Make it count for your brother. So pleased you are not tapping tempo at the front of a peleton.

    2km 21 secs. Seeldraeyers trying. T M from CC there.

    Yates and Rein with the death grip. 10 riders behind lined out across the road. SUPER steep.

    Final selection is a bit of a joke given how the WT teams were so keen to race and get the 'big win' the last two stages ...

    Would be good for Yates' confidence to get his first win for OGE ...

    500m. Yates looking easy and knows how to sprint.

    Rein giving it some 300m out. Bit early but now Yates cant respond quickly.

    What a day for the Yates twins. Great ride from young Adam (if only he had Simon's finish).

    50m. Rein takes the win. Big win. First to attack and made it count. Great job Yates. Guessing if Simon was in it he would have won this stage.

    That was an exciting finish!

    Well done Taaramae and Adam Yates.

    Bummer for Kudus, just missing out on the podium.

    Good to see Taaramae doing well again, he's had a rotten time with a breathing issue for some time now. Great ride by Adam Yates too.
