who won last year's tour de yorkshire
2017 Tour de Yorkshire The race was won by Team Dimension Data rider Serge Pauwels of Belgium,[2] after a strong performance from his team on the hilly final stage; Jacques Janse van Rensburg set Pauwels up for an attack on the Wigtwizzle climb and he went clear while Omar Fraile manned the chase group in support. After Pauwels had pulled out a gap, Fraile attacked and joined up with his team captain, setting up a tandem victory salute at the finish at Fox Valley in Stocksbridge, Sheffield.[3] Pauwels won the race by six seconds over Fraile, while Direct Énergie's Jonathan Hivert completed the podium, one second further behind Fraile. The race's other classifications were won by Caleb Ewan (points for Orica–Scott),[4] Pieter Weening (mountains for Roompot–Nederlandse Loterij), and Team Dimension Data (teams classification).
