On the final stage featuring the iconic climb of Green Mountain, Christian Scaroni claimed a brilliant victory, while his teammate Cristián Rodríguez secured second place. These results delivered a one-two overall success for XDS Astana Team in the General Classification: Scaroni won the Tour of Oman, and Rodríguez finished as runner-up.<p style="-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;caret-color:rgb(0, 0, 0);color:rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:Aptos, sans-serif;font-size:medium;font-style:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:normal;line-height:18.4px;margin:0cm 0cm 8pt;orphans:auto;text-align:start;text-decoration:none;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;widows:auto;word-spacing:0px;">In addition, Christian Scaroni claimed the green jersey in the points classification, while XDS Astana Team won the team classification.<blockquote><p style="-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;caret-color:rgb(0, 0, 0);color:rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:Aptos, sans-serif;font-size:medium;font-style:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:normal;line-height:18.4px;margin:0cm 0cm 8pt;orphans:auto;text-align:start;text-decoration:none;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;widows:auto;word-spacing:0px;">“The plan was very simple: reach the final climb without any problems and then see how the legs would feel and whether there would be enough left for the finale. Diego Ulissi stayed with me all day, protecting me from the wind and helping with positioning. Cristián Rodríguez gave me huge support at the only difficult moment on the climb, about one and a half kilometers from the finish. After Yates attacked, I found myself behind and couldn’t respond immediately, and Cristián helped me get back to the group of leaders. In the final kilometer, I tried to pace myself as well as possible, waited for Adam Yates to start his sprint, followed him, and then launched my own sprint. I want to thank the whole team for the phenomenal support throughout the week and especially today. And once again, thanks to Diego Ulissi as his help in the wind was invaluable”, – said Christian Scaroni.</blockquote><blockquote><p style="-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;caret-color:rgb(0, 0, 0);color:rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:Aptos, sans-serif;font-size:medium;font-style:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:normal;line-height:18.4px;margin:0cm 0cm 8pt;orphans:auto;text-align:start;text-decoration:none;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;widows:auto;word-spacing:0px;">“To be honest, I’m very happy with what we achieved. We came here aiming to fight for the overall victory, and today we won. I’m also pleased to have felt strong again, to regain my form and confidence – I really needed that. Being at the front on the decisive stage of such a high-level race is important for me. It was great to help Christian Scaroni take the win here, and I’m very happy to have delivered a strong result myself. What happened today is something incredible – it doesn’t happen every day”, – said Cristián Rodríguez.</blockquote><blockquote><p style="-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;caret-color:rgb(0, 0, 0);color:rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:Aptos, sans-serif;font-size:medium;font-style:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:normal;line-height:18.4px;margin:0cm 0cm 8pt;orphans:auto;text-align:start;text-decoration:none;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;widows:auto;word-spacing:0px;">“The whole team performed at a very high level today. On the one hand, everything went very well for us in this race; on the other, we certainly missed Alberto Bettiol on the flat stages – he was in very good shape but unfortunately fell ill. Nevertheless, the rest of the guys gave 100%. We executed the final climb exactly as planned, managing our effort well throughout. We have experience winning on this climb: this is already our fourth success at the Tour of Oman. We knew Adam Yates would be the main favorite and that he would attack, so Cristián Rodríguez closely followed his moves and supported our leader. Christian Scaroni, in turn, distributed his effort perfectly and managed to stay at the front going into the final kilometer. After that, it was his territory – he delivered the decisive and winning acceleration. It is especially pleasing that after such an intense week we also won the team classification – today’s success belongs to the entire team”, – added Dmitriy Fofonov, Sports Director of XDS Astana Team.</blockquote><p style="-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;caret-color:rgb(0, 0, 0);color:rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:Aptos, sans-serif;font-size:medium;font-style:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:normal;line-height:18.4px;margin:0cm 0cm 8pt;orphans:auto;text-align:start;text-decoration:none;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;widows:auto;word-spacing:0px;">Almost simultaneously with the finish of the Tour of Oman, the men’s road race at the Asian Road Championships concluded, where XDS Astana Team riders also achieved a one-two success: Yevgeniy Fedorov, representing Kazakhstan, won the gold medal, while Haoyu Su, racing for China, claimed silver.<p style="-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;caret-color:rgb(0, 0, 0);color:rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:Aptos, sans-serif;font-size:medium;font-style:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:normal;line-height:18.4px;margin:0cm 0cm 8pt;orphans:auto;text-align:start;text-decoration:none;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;widows:auto;word-spacing:0px;">Following today’s results, XDS Astana Team moved into the lead of the UCI WorldTour three-year ranking cycle (2026–2028) with 2,488 points, achieving an important milestone at the start of the current season.<p style="-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;caret-color:rgb(0, 0, 0);color:rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:Aptos, sans-serif;font-size:medium;font-style:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:normal;line-height:18.4px;margin:0cm 0cm 8pt;orphans:auto;text-align:start;text-decoration:none;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;widows:auto;word-spacing:0px;">Photo credit: ©SprintCycling

Oman. Double victory for XDS Astana Team

XDS Astana Team rider Matteo Malucelli outsprinted his rivals to claim victory on Stage 4 of the AlUla Tour. It was Malucelli’s first race of the 2026 season and his first win of the year.The fourth stage of the race with the distance of 173.4 kilometers started in Winter Park and finished in Hegra with an expected bunch sprint. Malucelli started his sprint from behind, gaining positions and taking the win in the final meters.<blockquote>“After the last corner I was a bit in the back, but I was right behind Milan and tried to stay on his wheel. It turned out to be the best choice. The team worked really well today, the headwind was crazy. We tried to stay together, and Federov and Bettiol gave me great support in the final. I’m very happy to beat such a strong sprinter as Milan today. For the team, it’s already the second victory of the season, and it has only just begun. We worked hard over the winter, and it’s a huge satisfaction to see that work paying off”, — said Matteo Malucelli after the stage.</blockquote>Photo credit: @SprintCycling

Scaroni attacked on the final climb of the day, Alto de Garbí, together with Antonio Tiberi and Diego Pescador. The leaders managed to gain a small advantage at the summit and extended it on the descent. In the end, Scaroni proved to be the strongest in the finishing sprint.<blockquote><p style="-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;caret-color:rgb(0, 0, 0);color:rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:Aptos, sans-serif;font-size:medium;font-style:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:normal;line-height:18.4px;margin:0cm 0cm 8pt;orphans:auto;text-align:start;text-decoration:none;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;widows:auto;word-spacing:0px;">“First of all, I would like to thank the team and all the guys, without whom today’s success would not have been possible. My teammates did an incredible job from the very first kilometers, so this victory belongs to all of us. Haoyu Su, Nicola Conci and Thomas Silva worked extremely hard in the first half of the race, allowing us to keep everything under control. On the second climb, a few riders launched a dangerous attack, but I didn’t respond immediately and waited for my teammates. After the summit, Diego Ulissi and Clément Champoussin moved to the front and closed the gap. At the start of the final climb, Lorenzo Fortunato went to the front and set an incredible pace, after which I attacked from his wheel. Tiberi and Pescador followed me, and in the end, we managed to get away. There was a strong headwind at the top and on the descent, it wasn’t easy, but we managed to hold our advantage. In the finale, everyone played their cards – I knew that it was crucial to enter the final corner in first position, so I launched my sprint early, gave everything I had, took the lead and after the corner did everything possible to stay in front. I’m very happy to win in my very first race; for our team this is a great start to the season”, – said Christian Scaroni.</blockquote><p style="-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;caret-color:rgb(0, 0, 0);color:rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:Aptos, sans-serif;font-size:medium;font-style:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:normal;line-height:18.4px;margin:0cm 0cm 8pt;orphans:auto;text-align:start;text-decoration:none;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;widows:auto;word-spacing:0px;">Another XDS Astana Team rider, Diego Ulissi, won the sprint in the second chasing group to finish sixth.<p style="-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;caret-color:rgb(0, 0, 0);color:rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:Aptos, sans-serif;font-size:medium;font-style:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:normal;line-height:18.4px;margin:0cm 0cm 8pt;orphans:auto;text-align:start;text-decoration:none;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;widows:auto;word-spacing:0px;">Photo credit: ©SprintCycling
