Lutsenko wins stage two
Last year’s overall winner proved that the Tour of Oman really suits him. The 26-year-old Astana rider attacked prior to the final climb and soloed to victory, jumping to second place overall, 3 seconds behind Alexander Kristoff. However, the Norwegian led the poursuivants across the finish line and proved that he aims for that GC victory as well. Should be great fun in the upcoming stages!
