The race&#8217;s initial phase witnessed multiple breakaway attempts, with Eritrean cyclist Araya and Algerian Azzedine Lagab making notable efforts to advance.<\/p>\n<p>Chris Froome also made a solo breakaway, albeit temporarily, before being absorbed back into the main group.<\/p>\n<p>Pierre Latour of TotalEnergies later surged ahead, creating a considerable distance from the peloton. <\/p>\n<p>He maintained this lead until Brieuc Rolland from Groupama-FDJ overtook him, setting up an exciting climax. However, the pack caught up with Rolland as they neared Rubavu, leading to a mass sprint towards the finish.<\/p>\n<p>In the race&#8217;s critical moments, William Lecerf Junior showcased exceptional speed, breaking away to secure the victory. This win underscored the collective strength of the Soudal Quick-Step team, with Pepijn Reinderink successfully holding onto the overall lead.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, Mugisha Moise&#8217;s performance as the top Rwandan, securing the 18th spot with the same time as Lecerf, was noteworthy. He solidified his position as a promising national talent, ranking 17th in the general classification, only seven seconds behind the leader.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-63812\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/field_11876_24022110512031298-37659.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-63813\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/field_11877_24022110551691823-03921.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-63814\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/field_11879_24022111294713928-99697.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-63815\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/field_11879_24022111294719238-98740.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-63816\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/field_11879_24022111294721938-d1fb4.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-63817\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/field_11879_24022111294723918-99833.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-63818\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/field_11879_24022111294738192-cc3a9.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-63819\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/field_11879_24022111294781923-0d7c1.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-63820\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/field_11879_24022111294789132-41a23.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-63821\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/field_11879_24022111294789231-2055e.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-63822\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/field_11879_24022111294791823-5aa2f.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-63823\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/field_11888_24022111563113928-f0276.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-63824\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/field_11888_24022111563129813-5e095.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-63825\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/field_11888_24022111563182913-21a1d.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-63826\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/field_11908_24022112551539821-f0c27.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-63827\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/field_11908_24022112551581329-961ea.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-63828\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/field_11912_24022115203138912-dcc9d.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-63829\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/field_11912_24022115203189213-cf2e4.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-63830\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/field_11912_24022115203193812-cd853.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-63831\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/field_11926_24022114432719328-f8a19.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-63832\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/field_11927_24022115264413298-23f99.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-63833\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/field_11927_24022115264428931-d9d74.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-63834\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/field_11927_24022115264483192-d20aa.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>{William Lecerf Junior, representing the Soudal Quick-Step Devo teamhas won the fourth stage of Tour du Rwanda 2024.
