The race was won by Samad Pourseyedi (Tabriz Petrochemical Team). He finished third on the first hill-top finish on stage 2, then took a solo victory on stage 4. He defended his lead to the end of the race. The final podium was made up entirely of Iranian riders: two Pishgaman–Giant riders came second and third, Hossein Askari and Rahim Emami. Pourseyedi also won the mountains classification, while Pishgaman–Giant were the best team.
