The Uno-X man beat Jan Hirt at the top of the short final climb at Qurayyat.

The 23-year-old Charmig is now four seconds ahead of Czech Hirt at the top of the overall standings, with Portugal's Rui Costa eight seconds further back.

Cavendish struggled on a difficult day for the sprinters, finishing 82nd on the stage to slip down the rankings.
