Race report
Thomas De Gendt and Gianluca Brambilla are off early with the Belgian trying to snatch KOM-points as he is shared KOM-leader with Porte. However, they are brought back after 31 kilometres. The Bora-squad is setting things up for Jay McCarthy, who wins the first intermediate sprint and moves into the third place overall.
Still the first climb is Thomas De Gendt’s, so things are going well for him.
Then the break is off. Thomas De Gendt, Jack Bauer, Francois Bigard, Jaco Venter, Ben O’Connor, Johannes Frohlinger. After De Gendt gets dropped Jhonatan Restrepo takes his place. The fresh man wins the second intermediate sprint before he is dropped. Yet he reaches his goal as he enters the top-10.
Eventually Bauer is the last man standing in the break. He is caught in the penultimate lap.
The bunch sprint is yet another Caleb Ewan show, finishing a bike length ahead of Peter Sagan.
Richie Porte takes the overall after a Tour Down Under that brought an Aussie clean sweep of stage wins. The sprinters stages for Ewan, the hilltop arrivals for the Tasmanian. Plain and clear.
