Michal Kwiatkowski takes the final stage and the race.
The race: Here's the organizer's telling of the race's final stage.
Michal Kwiatkowski (Team Sky) is the winner of the 44th Tour of the Algarve thanks to a perfect tactical move by the team that even gave the Polish rider the victory in the fifth and final stage, which today called Faro to the top of Malhão, Loulé, along 173,5 kilometres.
The decision of the Volta ao Algarve began to draw at kilometre 15 of the stage when a group of 31 riders left the peloton. In this group was Michal Kwiatkowski, who was in the second position of the general classification, 19 seconds behind of the teammate Geraint Thomas.
Despite the presence of the Polish rider, the group won almost 5 minutes of advantage over the peloton. The teams with aspirations to the podium were left to go in the decoy of Sky, causing that the tactical movement of the British formation was crowned of success.
It remained to the other elements of the front group to try the stage victory. The most combative was Lukas Postlberger (Bora-hansgrohe), who attacked alone before the first pass in Malhão and was joined by Czech champion Zdenek Stybar (Quick-Step Floors). It was the man from the Czech Republic who most approached the possibility of counteracting the power of Sky, entering isolated in the final ascent of 3 kilometres.
Nevertheless, Michal Kwiatkowski took advantage of the first ramps of the iconic rise to meet Stybar, passing by the Czech and cutting the goal in solitary. In a climb of great quality and courage, the Portuguese champion, one of the 31 fugitives of the day, passed by the opponents, being the second classified in the stage, 4 seconds down on Michal Kwiatkowski. The third, at 8 seconds, was the Belgian Serge Pauwels (Team Dimension Data).
Sky’s tactic, taking Michal Kwiatkowski to the Yellow jersey Algarve, left the competition for the second and third positions of the general classification. Geraint Thomas was second, at 1’31 “, while the American Tejay van Garderen (BMC Racing Team) closed the podium, 2m16s of the first. Nelson Oliveira (Movistar Team) gave up in the final stage, dropping from third to the tenth overall position, 2m54s from the winner, being nevertheless the best portuguese in the final classification.
“It was a very fast stage and with a totally unexpected end. We went on the break without really knowing if we would succeed. We tactically made the perfect race. I counted with the help of the Golas in the front and in the final ascent to Malhão I made my move. It is an important victory and that on the eve of the great classics gives me confidence about the current state of my physical condition. The important thing today was to win the Tour of the Algarve and we succeeded. It was a victory for the team” said the Pole.
In addition to the individual classification, Team Sky won the collective standings and the Cofidis Red Sweater, which also remained in the body of Michal Kwiatkowski. American Benjamin King (Team Dimension Data) retained the Liberty Seguros Blue Jerseys, a symbol of the mountain king, and Dutchman Sam Oomen wore the Aguas do Algarve White Jersey from the very first day to the last day.

Saturday, February 17: Stage 4, Almodovar - Tavira, 199.2 km
Dylan Groenewegen is the day's fastest man.
The race: Here's the organizer's telling of the day's racing.
Dylan Groenewegen (Team LottoNL-Jumbo) won today the fourth stage of the Volta ao Algarve, a 199.2-kilometer trip between Almodôvar and Tavira, where an enthusiastic crowd watched an exciting sprint that did not pinpoint the lead of Briton Geraint Thomas (Team Sky).
The approach to the arrival was chilling, with the sprinter’s teams imposing a strong rhythm, culminating in an exciting discussion between Dylan Groenewegen and Italian Matteo Pelucchi (Bora-Hansgrohe). The Dutchman, who won the first stage in Lagos, got the better of him, proving to be one of the best sprinters in the WorldTour squad at the start of the season. The third was the German John Degenkolb (Trek-Segafredo).
This was the longest stage of the race, disputed at high speed – an average of 43,650 km/hr, much because of the sextet that attacked with only 4 kilometres covered from Almodôvar. Benjamin King (Team Dimension Data), Rory Sutherland (UAE Team Emirates), Julen Amezqueta (Caja Rural-Seguros RGA), Bruno Silva (Efapel), Aleksandr Grigorev (Sporting-Tavira) and João Rodrigues (W52- FC Porto) were the attackers of the day. In the last 20 kilometres, they were joined by Philippe Gilbert (Quick-Step Floors), Dylan Teuns (BMC Racing Team) and Jasha Sutterlin (Movistar Team), who gave the initiative a new boost and forced the peloton to double work. Finally, the peloton caught the fugitives with two kilometres to go.
“It’s good to win again in the Algarve. My team-mates gave me again a good lead-out in the sprint and I managed to be the strongest. I start the year winning and hope to enjoy this form in the next races. It’s good to race in the Algarve, the weather is great, the quality of the squad is high and winning at the beginning of the season is always important for a sprinter,” said Dylan Groenewegen.
Welshman Geraint Thomas was the 22nd to cut the finish line and retained the Yellow Jersey. The Team Sky leader has a 19-second lead over team-mate Michal Kwiatkowski and 32 seconds over Portuguese Nelson Oliveira (Movistar Team).
The victory on the stage allowed Dylan Groenewegen to recover the lead in the points classification. The day in the front gave Benjamin King a boost in the leadership on the mountain climbs (Blue Jersey). The Dutchman Sam Oomen (Team Subweb) secured the white jersey (Youth classification). In the team’s classification, Team SKY secured the lead.
Tomorrow's stage
Team Sky’s hegemony will be put to the test in the fifth and final stage, a 173.5km on Sunday. The start is scheduled for 12:20, marking the return of the city of Faro to the itinerary of the Volta ao Algarve. The finish, around 5:00 pm (CET), coincides with the climb of the Malhão.
The route includes four more mountain prizes: Picota (3rd cat, Km 63,3), Ameixieira (3rd cat, Km 99,6), Malhão (2nd cat, Km 132,6) and Vermelhos (3rd cat., Km 153.2). São Brás de Alportel, at kilometre 16.8, and Barrosas at kilometre 127.6, receive the two sprints of the day.
Between the favourites in the general classification, the fight for the stage can also include strong climbers as Daniel Martin, Louis Meintjes or Richie Porte.
“It’s my job to take the yellow jersey to the end. Despite the various climbs of the last stage will be the final climb to Malhão that will sentence the race. I count on the support of my teammates. We are strong and confident because we have a good advantage over our opponents. Both I and Kwiatkowski have good chances and any of us can win the race. The important thing is that the yellow jersey remains is in Team Sky,” anticipates Geraint Thomas.

Algarve Tour stage 4 profile
Friday, February 16: Stage 3, Lagoa 20.3 km individual time trial
Geraint Thomas strengthened his hold on the Algarve lead.
The race: Here's the organizer's telling of the day's racing.
Geraint Thomas (Team Sky) has won the third stage of the Volta ao Algarve, a 20.3-kilometer time trial in Lagoa
The Welsh cyclist, winner of the Volta ao Algarve in 2015 and 2016, pulverized the records of the competition by finish the 20.3-kilometer time trial in Lagoa in 24m09s. Geraint Thomas rode at an average speed of 50,435 km / h, a relevant achievement, taking into account the route, with several inclined ramps, rises, descents and turns, which broke the rhythm and increased the difficulty of the stage.
The second was the European Time trial champion, Belgian Victor Campenaerts (Lotto Soudal), who spent 11 seconds more than Geraint Thomas. Swiss champion Stefan Küng (BMC Racing Team) closed the day’s podium, 19 seconds behind the winner.
The triumph in the time-trial confirmed Geraint Thomas as the main favourite to win the 44th Volta ao Algarve. Team Sky’s frontman kept the yellow jersey and now has a 22-second lead over team-mate Michal Kwiatkowski. The Portuguese Nelson Oliveira (Movistar Team) scored an excellent fourth place in the stage, being catapulted to third place overall, 32 seconds behind.
It is expected that the last stage, to be played on Sunday, between Faro and the top of Malhão, is decisive, since the last climb may provide attacks that disregard the superiority of Team Sky.
“I felt really good at Fóia but today I would not know what to expect, I chose to start strong and manage the effort, and when you are in the yellow jersey, it gives you an extra motivation, I felt good and I was able to win for the first time. There are several strong climbers in the peloton and the differences are short but both I and Kwiatkowski are among the first and, if it goes well, we will keep the yellow jersey, ” Thomas said.
Michal Kwiatkowski continues to wear the Cofidis Red Jersey of regularity (points classification) on a one-on-one match with Dylan Groenewegen (Team LottoNL-Jumbo). Benjamin King (Team Dimension Data) kept the Liberty Seguros Blue Jersey (mountains classification), but he will have to work hard on the two remaining stages to keep it. Team Sunweb confirms the favouritism to the Águas Algarve White Jersey placing two riders at the top of the youth table with Dutchman Sam Oomen in the lead. Team Sky commands collectively.
Tomorrow’s stage
The fourth stage, to be played on Saturday, is the longest in the competition, 199.2 kilometres between Almodôvar and Tavira. The departure will be at 12.00 p.m., with a sprint finish expected at around 5 p.m. On the way there are two flying goals, Rosario (km 39,2) and Alcoutim (km 132,5), and two climbs (4th category), Neves (km 98,3) and Santa Marta (km 121).

Stage 3 map
Stage 3 profile
Thursday, February 15: Stage 2, Sagres - Foia, 187.9 km
Stage is Michal Kwiatkowski's.
The race: Here is the organizer's stage summary.
Team Sky dominated the second stage of the Volta ao Algarve between Sagres and Alto de Fóia, in Monchique. Michal Kwiatkowski took the stage and Geraint Thomas conquered the yellow jersey.
The arrival coincided with a first-cat mountain climb, at the top of a 15-kilometre ascent to the highest point in the Algarve, 900 meters above sea level. Sky attacked the race at the hardest point of the climb, about 8 kilometres from the finish line. Belarusian Vasil Kiryienka isolated himself and forced his opponents to waste energy in his pursuit.
The effort of the rivals was used by Michal Kwiatkowski to overpower their rivals. Dutch Bauke Mollema (Trek-Segafredo) was second followed by Geraint Thomas, Daniel Martin (UAE Team Emirates) and Jaime Rosón (Movistar Team).
“Team Sky has run very well in the last few kilometres, putting Kiryienka ahead, forcing our opponents to chase. The stage win was something unexpected, but it leaves me satisfied with my current form. Both Thomas and I have good conditions to win the race. This year the climb to Fóia was longer and less inclined and, therefore, the time trial will be even more decisive. Then we have Malhão on the last day. It’s a short climb, but in an effort of eight minutes you can suffer a lot” said Michal Kwiatkowski.
Since there are no time bonus to be credited, the top five of the general classification are all with the same time. The tiebreaker is made by the points awarded after each stage. Geraint Thomas is the new leader, followed by Jaime Rosón, Michal Kwiatkowski, Daniel Martin and Bauke Mollema.
“We are pleased to be leading again here on the Volta ao Algarve. We controlled our rivals well and in the final Kwiatkowski was the strongest. I’m happy for him. The yellow jersey was a surprise, but for now, it has little meaning. The time trial will be decisive and I’ll be happy if Team Sky keeps the yellow sweater tomorrow”says Thomas.
Before the peloton entered the spectacular final climb, the leaders of the day were Lukas Pöstlberger (Bora-Hansgrohe), Yves Lampaert (Quick-Step Floors), Benjamin King (Team Dimension Data), John Degenkolb (Trek-Segafredo), Marcos Jurado (Efapel), Oscar Pelegri (Radio Popular-Boavista) and Ricardo Mestre (W52-FC Porto). The break was made at kilometre 11, and the seven men had more than 7 minutes advantage. Pöstlberger and King were the toughest, finishing their effort 9km from the finish, moments before the Team Sky attack.
Benjamin King (Team Dimension Data) is now the new mountains leader (blue jersey Liberty Seguros). Michal Kwiatkowski (Team SKY) is the leader of the points classification and Dutchman Sam Oomen (Team Sunweb) has stepped up his ranks in the youth classification, becoming the owner of the Aguas do Algarve White Jersey. Quick-Step Floors is the first in the team’s classification.

Dylan Groenewegen just beats Arnaud Demare to win the first stage
The race: here's the report from winner Dylan Groenewegen's LottoNL-Jumbo team.
Dylan Groenewegen has taken his second win of the season. In the first stage of the Volta ao Algarve and Bicicleta, the 24-year-old Dutchman was the first to cross the finish line after a long sprint. It meant the third victory of Team LottoNL-Jumbo this season.
For Groenewegen it’s his 21st victory in the yellow-black of Team LottoNL-Jumbo, a victory that was preceded by a long and heavy sprint. In the end, it was Timo Roosen who launched Groenewegen.
"The shape feels really good", Groenewegen said afterwards. "The leadout was already strong in Dubai and today they did a great job again. The timing was right and I finished it off in a long sprint."
"Dylan had a good winter, worked hard and is still young. That’s how we like it", a cheerful Merijn Zeeman said. The sports director praised the entire team for their hard work, allowing Groenewegen to sprint full throttle. "Sepp Kuss controlled the peloton all day. When the breakaway was caught, some riders tried to jump away, but Bert-Jan Lindeman, Bram Tankink and Paul Martens made an effort to prevent this. That's why Dylan was ready for the final and he finished it off strongly."
