While entering the last lap, the first group is down to some 30 riders.
Adam Yates attacks in the last ascent of the Côte Camillien-Houde. Pavel Sivakov follows him for awhile until he is dropped just like the others. Yet, he regains contact with 8 kilometres left to race.
The Briton outpowers the Frenchman with ease in the uphill finish to succeed his team mate Pogacar as the winner of the GP Montréal.
