Emami, who celebrated his third overall victory at the Tour of Fuzhou after wins in 2013 and 2015, won the overall with a time of 14:50:53.
“This year, it was more difficult than last year,” the Iranian told cyclingnews.com. “There were more stages [five instead of three] and more hard stages too.”
“But my team was also better than last year. It’s a younger team growing nicely. Last year before the final stage, my advantage was only one second but today I was more relaxed with a bigger advantage. Everything has been perfect this year with a superb organization,” he added.
