AlUla Tour 2026 - Stage 4

Madinah > Shalal Sijlyat Rocks, 171.4km

27.01-31.01

Matteo Malucelli (XDS Astana) surprised pre-race favourite Jonathan Milan (Lidl-Trek) with a perfectly timed sprint to win stage 4 of the AlUla Tour. Milan, winner twice already this week, had to settle for second as Malucelli came off his wheel to power past in the final metres. Yannis Voisard (Tudor) finished safely in the peloton and keeps the race lead ahead of Saturday’s decisive Harrat Uwayrid finish.
