WELSH rider Stephen Williams outgunned Julian Alaphilippe to win the second stage of the Tour of Britain in Redcar this afternoon.

Williams (Israel-Premier Tech) produced an impressive sprint to move past the former two-time world champion Alaphilippe (Soudal-QuickStep) in the closing stages before holding his hands aloft at the finish.

British duo Oscar Onley (Team DSM-Firmenich) and Joseph Blackmore (Israel-Premier Tech) finished third and fourth respectively following the 152.1 kilometre stage that started in Darlington.
