Pure spectacle in the fifth and final stage of the Tour of Oman won by Frenchman Valentin Paret Peintre (Soudal Quickstep). The final 5-kilometer climb was decisive, where the race literally exploded, and particularly the final turn where the young Frenchman made the decisive attack, beating Adam Yates, who then won the overall classification.

The 138 km from Imty to Green Mountain did not fail to provide excitement from the initial moments. The first part of the race was characterized by a massive breakaway of 17 riders: Luca Gaimi (UAE team Emirates), Mauri Vansevenant and Pepijn Reinderink (Soudal Quickstep), Anthon Charmig (Astana), Niklas Behrens (Visma lease a bike), Pavel Bittner and Sean Flynn (Picnic Postnl), Orluis Aular (Movistar team), Felix Engelhardt (Jayco Alula), Anthony Turgis (Total Energies), Marcel Camprubi (Q36.5), Lucas Eriksson (Tudor), Koller Sakarias Loland and Pedersen Henrik (Uno x). Jose Luis Faura (Burgos), Dylan Hopkins (roojal insurance)
