Swiss victory in the third stage of the AlUla Tour, the Winter Park - Bir Jaydah Mountain Wirkah of 142.1 km, the first with a mountain finish: raising his arms to the sky was Yannis Voisard of Tudor Pro Cycling. The Swiss rider preceded at the end of a very long and tough head-to-head climb the Portuguese Afonso Eulalio of Bahrain Victorious and Colombian Sergio Higuita of XdS Astana.

For the twenty-seven-year-old Swiss, this is his second victory among professionals: last year he won a stage of the Tour of Hungary.

THE RACE. After about ten kilometers, Zhe Yie Kee and Muhammad Nur Aiman Bin Rosli (Terengganu Cycling Team) and Nader Hazazi (Saudi Arabia) break away. The latter is the first to surrender 58 kilometers from the finish and is reabsorbed shortly after by the group.

The action of the two Terengganu attackers ends 26 kilometers from the finish with the group always led by UAE Emirates XRG.

12 km from the finish, Davide Stella (UAE Team Emirates XRG), Laurenz Rex (Soudal Quick-Step) and Fabien Grellier (TotalEnergies) crash, with the young Italian appearing to be in pain in his left arm.

On the final climb, Swiss Jan Christen of UAE was the first to attack with Gianmarco Garofoli (Soudal Quick Step) on his wheel: at the height of the last kilometer, a new acceleration by the Swiss who went off alone but... not towards victory because in the last kilometer the situation completely turned around.
