Sharjah 24 – WAM: The 25 year old Swiss outsprinted former World Champion Julian Alaphilippe (Soudal Quickstep) in a two-up dash to the line ahead of Lennert Van Eetvelt (Lotto Dstny).
Pavel Sivakov made a brave solo move with -40km to go before being brought back which set-up the attack on the ascent of Pilotegi with 7km remaining, with Alaphilippe ploughing ahead with Hirschi in tow. The pair collaborated to the line before Alaphilippe led out the sprint with Hirschi timing his move perfectly to cruise past the Frenchman.
