The fourth and final stage of Abu Dhabi Tour takes pride of place on The National Sport front page on Monday, October 12 as Esteban Chaves wins the inaugural title.

Elia Viviani won the stage at the Yas Marina Circuit but the headlines belonged to Colombian Chaves, who emerged victorious at the end of the race.

Osman Samiuddin was at the Yas Marina Circuit for Stage 4 and reports on Chaves' victory.

Lewis Hamilton also features on the front page after his victory at the Russian Grand Prix moves the Mercedes driver within touching distance of retaining the Formula One world title.

Graham Caygill provides his analysis of the race: No Nico Rosberg leaves Lewis Hamilton to shadow box his way to Russian GP win.

Completing the front page is Ireland’s Rugby World Cup win over France, which sets up a quarter-final meeting with Argentina, leaving the French the daunting prospect of facing reigning champions New Zealand.
