Moreno, Thomas round out podium thanks to final day bonus seconds
André Greipel (Lotto-Belisol) extended his record for Santos Tour Down Under stage wins in stage six, out-dueling Mark Renshaw (Blanco) and Edvald Boasson Hagen (Sky Procycling) in the circuit race around Adelaide. Overall leader Tom Jelte Slagter (Blanco) stayed out of trouble and finished off his overall victory. It is the first stage race victory for the Dutchman, after he picked up his first career road win earlier in the week.
Greipel used a final kick to come around Renshaw, who had tried to surprise the German by going early. Renshaw had to hesitate for a moment to avoid a Lotto-Belisol lead-out man who had pullen off, but then the Blanco sprinter accelerated and got a gap. But the line was still too far away, as Greipel found his slipstream, powered away from Boasson Hagen and around Renshaw with enough time to gain two bike lengths and celebrate his 100th professional win.
“He surprised me a little bit,” Greipel said of Renshaw, “and I was also planning to kick, but he started earlier. He did a really good sprint. This is like a textbook, the way we’re doing the lead-outs. It is always incredible how they do it. They keep me in the front and keep me out of trouble.
“I would be stupid not to come back next year.”
As he was after his stage three win, Slagter seemed just a bit in awe of the moment, and while it didn’t seem too big for him, he did offer a salute after crossing the start-finish line a final time.
“When I won in Stirling, it was already amazing, and maybe a bit of luck too, but this week I found out that I was the strongest,” Slagter said at the finish. “To take this jersey home is really amazing. Our goal coming in was for me and Wilco [Kelderman] to go for the top ten, and I won and Wilco is 6th or 7th [Kelderman finished 8th overall – ed.], so for us it was the best we could have wished for. The team is doing really well, and I’m really proud to show this team to the world and to come away with the victory.”
Fast racing around Adelaide to finish off the week:
With riders looking at 20 laps of a 4.5km circuit, a breakaway was allowed just a little bit of room from the start of the first lap. Sky Procycling was policing the peloton with plans in mind for former overall leader Geraint Thomas. So Juraj Sagan (Cannondale), Mikel Astarloza (Euskaltel-Euskadi), Laurent Didier (Radioshack-Leopard), Frantisek Rabon (Omega Pharma-Quick Step), Calvin Watson (UniSA), and Jens Voigt (Radioshack-Leopard) worked hard to establish a gap, but never achieved more than 20 seconds.
It became evident quickly that Team Sky would be targeting the bonus seconds available at both intermediate sprint points, with Thomas sitting just four seconds out of the final podium spot, occupied by Radioshack-Leopard’s Ben Hermans. Voigt and Didier did their best to hold off Thomas and his intentions, but in the end, the former overall leader would be successful in his pursuit of the third place spot.
Tomasz Marczynski (Vacansoleil-DCM) came across to the break, making it seven strong, but their lead dropped to 12 seconds, where it hovered through the first five laps of racing. Both Marczynski and Watson made brief solo efforts as their selection was being reeled in, but all were together according to Team Sky’s plans approaching the first intermediate sprint at the end of lap eight.
Thomas won it outright, with Euskaltel-Euskadi also mixing up the sprint, trying to preserve Jon Izagirre’s fourth place overall. As the pace eased off after the first sprint, Garikoitz Bravo (Euskaltel-Euakadi), Marczynski, and Alan Marangoni (Cannondale) made a brief escape again, but before long, several more laps had ticked off, and the second intermediate sprint hit at the end of lap 12. Boasson Hagen took this one out for Sky, with Juan Jose Lobato (Euskaltel-Euskadi) second, and Thomas mopping up the final second, giving himself four bonus seconds on the day and moving him to a virtual tie with Hermans.
A second post-sprint lull inspired Jordan Kerby (UniSA), Martin Kohler (BMC Racing), and Blel Kadri (Ag2R La Mondiale) to make a play for glory. The trio would spend the next four laps ahead of the main bunch, though never too far, and race officials soon reported that Thomas had moved to third place overall, winning the tie-breaker over Hermans. With three laps to race, the gap to the leading trio was just ten seconds, and one lap later, they were back in the confines of the peloton. Jonathan Cantell (Saxo-Tinkoff) touched a wheel on a right-hander and went down, ending his sprinting hopes for the day.
On the final lap, Sky and Orica-GreenEdge were controlling the peloton with Lotto-Belisol content to wait. Their time came with 1.5km left, when they hit the front with three men ahead of Greipel. Their lead-out was by the textbook, just as Greipel would later describe, as one-by-one they peeled off. Renshaw came up the right side looking to spring the surprise, but the powerful German had plenty left in his legs, and just enough room on the road to accelerate into the lead.
