Stage 5 of the Tour Down Under was always expected to be crucial in the big picture of the race, and it certainly didn't disappoint. An explosive finale saw Jhonatan Narváez take the stage win and take hold of the overall classification, with only one (flat) stage left to race this week in Australia.

Javier Romo entered the stage in first place but despite this he took the race head on and attacked near the base of Old Willunga Hill. It was almost a perfect strategy, but the consecutive attacks of Luke Plapp brought the Spaniard back. Narváez won the stage ahead of Oscar Onley and Finn Fisher-Black who came from behind.

Narváez, much due to the bonus seconds he accumulated throughout the week, jumped to the race lead 9 seconds ahead of Romo, 12 over Fisher-Black and 15 over Onley. Bastien Tronchon, Luke Plapp, Magnus Sheffield, Thomas Gloag, Patrick Konrad and Michael Woods complete the Top10, with minor changes possible tomorrow in Adelaide as a few riders are tied in time.
