The Tour Down Under has been finished. The season's first World Tour race in Australia has come to a closing this Sunday, crowing Jhonatan Narváez as the race winner after his win at Old Willunga Hill, and a week where he managed to grab bonus seconds in several sprints throughout the week.
A display of strength, versatility and explosivity for the Ecuadorian who starts off his stint with the Emirati team perfectly. Javier Romo held on to second place in the GC, after winning stage 3 into Uraidla with a solo attack. He lost the ochre jersey in Willunga, but that wasn't before he put in an highly praised attack at the base whilst leading the race.
Finn Fisher-Black secured the final spot in the podium after also chasing bonus seconds throughout the week. Oscar Onley, Bastien Tronchon, Luke Plapp, Magnus Sheffield, Thomas Gloag, Patrick Konrad and Michael Woods completed the Top10.
Sam Welsford unsurprisingly won the points classification after winning three sprint stages, Australia's Fergus Browning won the KOM classification after several breakaways in the early days, Lidl-Trek won the team's classification and it's 18-year old jewel Albert Philipsen won the youth classification.
