Viviani wins Stage 4 as Chaves holds on to first Abu Dhabi Tour title

The setting at the Yas Marina Circuit was spectacular and so was the denouement to the fourth and final stage of the first Abu Dhabi Tour.

For the second time in three days, Elia Viviani of Team Sky outsprinted the world champion Peter Sagan.

That result completed the formality of the Colombian Esteban Chaves becoming the first winner of the Abu Dhabi Tour, taking the Red Jersey for the General Classification win.

After a somewhat fortuitous win on Jebel Hafeet on Saturday, Chaves had essentially to stay on his bike and complete the 110km-stage to win.

Viviani's second-stage win brought reward as well in the Green Jersey and the Points Classification win.

And this triumph was even closer than the second-stage finish at Yas Mall on Friday. It was so close that Sagan would later – in jest – seek out a photo of the finish.
