It was to prove to be a double celebration for the Publiguas-Trek squad, as the final stage was won by Victor Garrido, who took the field sprint from Agro-Adler's Roberto Lochowski and Ekono-Go! Zuko's Angel Perez. The final G.C. saw Sepulveda finish 14 seconds ahead of Rodriguez, with Union Ciclista Curico's Jose Medina third at 0:47.
