Wout van Aert was topped Tour of Britain champion for a second time as Carlos Rodriguez received this yr’s closing stage.
Van Aert held a three-second total lead over a bunch of 10 riders heading into stage eight.
Rodriguez launched a closing assault ascent, however needed to beat Van Aert by a minimum of 39 seconds to safe the final classification crown.
The Spaniard completed simply 11 seconds forward of the Belgian.
Jumbo-Visma’s Van Aert received by three seconds total so as to add to his 2021 title.
Uno-X’s Tobias Halland Johannessen of Norway completed second within the common classification, with Australia’s Q.36.5 rider Damien Howsen coming third.
New Zealand’s James Fouche secured the king of the mountains prize for greatest climber.
Sunday’s closing stage needed to be diverted after an unrelated accident on the route which reportedly left one particular person damage, and a bit over Bwlch mountain didn’t go forward.
The race resumed half an hour later with Rodriguez and Great Britain’s Stephen Williams attacking on the mountain climb of Bryn Du with 50km remaining.
The pair led the chasing group by 20 seconds as they headed into the primary ascent of Caerphilly Mountain earlier than Rodriguez launched a solo assault on the high of the climb.
However, Van Aert led a bunch of 4 in chasing down the Ineos Grenadiers rider and held off a late problem from Magnus Sheffield as he crossed the road in second.
