UAE Tour 2021 highlights: Fierce Stage 6 sprint battle

With the GC battle all but wrapped up, the sprinters returned to the fore on Stage 6 of the UAE Tour for the first of back-to-back sprint days. Sam Bennett was the favourite for victory after winning Stage 4 but faced stiff competition from the likes of Caleb Ewan, Pascal Ackermann, Elia Viviani and breakthrough star David Dekker. Dubai’s Palm Jumeirah was the setting for what proved to be a tense and fiercely fought finish.
