Stage 3 map

Serge Pauwels and Omar Fraile finish off the Tour de Yorkshire in style

The race: Here's the race organizer's final report:

A record one million fans turned out to watch the epic finale to the 2017 Tour de Yorkshire which saw Serge Pauwels claim the stage and overall victory.

Not since the 2014 Tour de France Grand Départ has Yorkshire experienced such a huge figure on a single day of racing, and that bumper crowd on Sunday helped ensure the third edition was officially the biggest one yet with overall attendances rising from 2 million to 2.2 million year on year.

Entire communities turned out on the roadside to witness the peloton pass though as they traversed the 194.5km route from Bradford to Fox Valley, Sheffield, and each of the day’s eight categorised climbs were also packed with masses of cheering, colourful and enthusiastic fans. The parcours was also lined with incredible, eye-catching land art as pictures of Yorkshire were beamed to a record 180 countries globally.

Spectators were treated to exciting action as well with Pauwels breaking clear on the tough concluding loop and he was joined by Dimension Data team-mate Omar Fraile before the race concluded in Stocksbridge.

The duo then pressed home their advantage with Pauwels leading Fraile over the finish line to seal the biggest victory of his career and a 1-2 for his team who also topped the Doncaster Sheffield Airport and FlyBe Team Classification. Jonathan Hivert (Direct Énergie) rounded out the podium six seconds later.

Those same three riders also claimed the top three positions on the General Classification with Pauwels taking the blue leader’s jersey sponsored by Welcome to Yorkshire. Australian Caleb Ewan (Orica-Scott) won the Yorkshire Bank Points Classification, Dutchman Pieter Weening (Roompot–Nederlandse Loterij) sealed the Virgin Trains King of the Mountain prize, and fans on Twitter voted Dexter Gardias (Bike Channel Canyon) the Most Aggressive Rider sponsored by Dimension Data.

Saturday, April 29: Stage 2, Tadcaster - Harrogate, 122.5 km

Stage 2 map

Nacer Bouhanni wins Yorkshire Tour stage two

The race: Here's the organizer's explanation of the day's racing:

Nacer Bouhanni thundered to a prestigious victory in Harrogate, raising his arms on the same finishing straight where Marcel Kittel prevailed in the 2014 Tour de France. The French rider edged Caleb Ewan and Jonathan Hivert in the sprint. Ewan, meanwhile, took over the blue leader's jersey from Groenewegen.

Barely an hour after Lizzie Deignan claimed the women's race on her home turf, the men's peloton rolled out of Tadcaster for stage 2 of the Tour de Yorkshire. A huge crowd cheered on the gentlemen as they started the 122.5 km course to Harrogate shortly after 2 pm. Swift (MGT), Gullen (JLT), Mora Vedri (RAL) and Tanfield (BIK) powered away from the peloton 14 kilometres into the stage and formed the major breakaway of the day.

Tanfield took the first intermediate sprint of the day (km 22.5) ahead of Mora and Swift. Lone chaser Hupond (DMP) was half a minute back, while the peloton chugged along 3′50″ behind the leaders. The gap only started to come down when Team LottoNL–Jumbo moved to the front and began working for Dylan Groenewegen, who was clad in the leader's jersey after winning the inaugural stage. Hupond soon realised he was on a fool's errand and fell back to the peloton.

Tanfield and then Mora got dropped on the short but brutal Lofthouse climb (km 60). Gullen went over the top of the ascent with Swift, with the second group 40″ back and the peloton two minutes behind. After recovering from the leg-breaking gradients of the main climb of the day, the dropped riders managed to close the gap and join the duo in front at km 68. However, their advantage over the peloton had halved to 1′05″ by the time Mora Vedri took the second intermediate sprint (km 91) ahead of Tanfield and Gullen, and it continued to fall until they only had 30″ with 25 km to go. The escapees were finally brought back into the fold at km 100.

Janse Van Rensburg (DDD), with 20 km to go, and Nauleau (DEN), 15 km before the line, were among the brave few who went on the attack, but their efforts were in vain and it was peloton groupé as the riders prepared to tackle the slightly uphill finish in Harrogate. Pocket rocket Nacer Bouhanni (COF) left nothing to chance and claimed his first win in Yorkshire. The French rider pulled a leaf out of the book of Marcel Kittel, who won here during the 2014 Tour de France, and he even reviewed footage of the German's win before the stage. Caleb Ewan (ORS) and Jonathan Hivert (DEN) took second and third. It was Bouhanni's fourth season victory.

Caleb Ewan was disappointed to finish second again, but it was good enough for him to take over the blue leader's jersey. The Aussie holds a two-second margin over Bouhanni and Groenewegen with one stage to go. Ewan also moved to the top of the points classification, while Van Empel (RNL) defended his lead in the best climber's competition.

Stage 2 map:

---

Friday, April 28: Stage 1, Bridlington - Scarborough, 173 km

Dylan Groenewegen (red shoulders jersey) just beat Caleb Ewen to win the first stage

The race: There was a giant crash near the end. The riders involved were given the same finishing time as the front group. You'll see them noted below in the results as having + 00' 00'' for their times behind winner Dylan Groenewegen, though they are listed in the order they crossed the line.

Here's the stage story from second-place finisher Caleb Ewen's Orica-Scott team.

Tour of Abu Dhabi stage winner Caleb Ewan sprinted to second place on today’s opening stage of the Tour de Yorkshire after an agonisingly close finale for the Orica-Scott rider.

The Australian outfit rode a textbook race and controlled the catch of the breakaway inside the last ten kilometres with first Svein Tuft and then Mathew Hayman leading the charge and Ewan positioned nicely on the wheels.

The finale was chaotic, partly down to the speed, crosswinds and the final corner, a heavy crash took down Vuelta a Espana stage winner Magnus Cort just as the sprint began and initial X-rays unfortunately show a broken collarbone for the Dane.

Ewan hit out inside the final 200metres and was narrowly beaten across the line by Dylan Groenewegen (LottoNL-Jumbo) as not even a tyres width separated the two riders.

“Obviously we are disappointed with how it finished today,” said sport director Dave McPartland. “It’s a real shame and very unfortunate to lose Magnus, not only for this race, but also for the busy period ahead and we hope that he can make a full and speedy recovery.”

“We didn’t come here with a large squad so we were already running a bit threadbare, but nevertheless the boys rode fantastically well all day. Svein Tuft was on the front for most of the stage and we controlled the final kilometres perfectly to give Caleb the best possible chance to contest the sprint.

“It was very, very close in the last 100metres and Caleb carried a lot of speed into the home straight and is clearly disappointed not to have gotten the win. The team rode impressively throughout, controlled things, worked hard and conserved energy at the right times, but now we must look ahead to tomorrow.

“Caleb is confident and his form is good, the way today turned out has only added to our motivation to succeed tomorrow. The stage suits us very well, it is shorter with less climbs and the finish should be ideal for Caleb’s characteristics.”

How it happened:

Beautiful spring sunshine welcomed the riders to the start of stage one in Bridlington today with large crowds lining the streets and a group of eight riders jumping clear to form the early breakaway after 15kilometres of racing.

The eight leaders were being held around two minutes by the peloton at the halfway point, with just under 90kilometres of stunning scenery and rolling roads still to be covered.

Orica-Scott never strayed too far from the front of the peloton, with Canadian strong man Tuft a visible presence up amongst the riders of LottoNL-Jumbo as the race headed into the final 50kilometres and the leaders now down to seven riders still at two minutes.

The breakaway group really started to fall apart over the sharp climbs near Robin Hoods Bay, some 30kilomtres from the finish and the gap to the peloton now less than one minute.

The last two riders from the breakaway were caught by the peloton with eight kilometres remaining and Tuft taking control at the front with Ewan tucked alongside Cort.

Hayman took up the reigns with five kilometres to go then Mitch Docker with Ewan on the wheel of Cort as the race sped under the Flamme Rouge.

Crosswinds from the sea made for a dramatically reduced bunch that went on to contest the sprint with Cort crashing heavily as Ewan accelerated away for a super close second place with Groenewegen taking the win.
