Two Riders to the leaderboard equal on time but that will change today welcome everybody to Stage six of the final stage of the Santos toour down under in South Australia there Robbie is the uh poot Jersey signing in the leader of the king of the mountains Damen houon signing in
And it looks to me as though uh these boys are going to be up to one big fight out of the blocks and here we have Michael judon the mayor of the city ofen Le getting them Underway coming up towards the king of the mountains the first of three first category climbs the other two are on Mount lofty itself on the circuit Burns taking second across the top of windy nicely 100 m to go anyone going to pop out of the sadle is there going to be a
Sprint ah here we go ballast it i’ would have gone if I’d have been Stephan theot on the left he’s best placed 3 seconds that come off his 130 deficit it’s not the way going to be the case at all bastad has got that one mace bastad the
Yeah well Paul Sher and my co- commentator for many many years um and sadly passed away he had uh timings and figures all over the desk always so he had Absolut perfected only had handlebars and I had figures just floating around in my head oh over the K
There we go and it’s hilers no Sprint no no Sprint Hil helders from sudal quickstep taking maximum points over the FX King of the mountains point but then that they are going to have to start picking up the chase Stefan deod in the pink if I was stepen right now I’d get
Out and win these three seconds because it could be crucial if it could does Go the Distance this Breakaway he would win the Tour and didn’t even get amongst it it was yakap mosa who went across the line there Quick Step the Belgian he comes through to the front so he’ll take the
Points here it looks like little flick of the elbows or Y just just got it just but I think more the acceleration of Morgado to me looked like let’s try and race for the stage Victory here goes deod inos grenadiers driving the train now to hope they can deliver Navas to
The Finish he won’t struggle on the climb to the line with the long descent might be a little bit of a problem if people with him but there is the face of the race leader now and he’s clearly showing some stress of that’s Steven Williams there it
Is now who’s involved down there that must have been near the back of the race I presume because it looks as though the contenders may have escaped but there’s where it happened massive fall really goodness me a lot of riders caught up in that one some 10 or 10 riders or so
Hitting the ground a lot of others held up and that was quite far forward in the pelaton around 20th position as bike changes going on here so this is action stations for all the mechanics and team directors trying to service their Riders and anyone who was high up on GC it’s a
Scramble to try and get back and they can’t keep up with the pressure now this is the Santos th down under and a race for just 1 second could win the day well there’s the Gap D Toro leading them Bart LMA up there as well and here comes na
Is so they got back on terms with the rider from group arm fdj too with the last itch na in but lmer coming back from behind they’re in the last couple of hundred met now Phil the road about to dip down 200 M to go deloro Williams is going to go for this
And take it out in style in the leader’s Jersey he wins the stage on Mount lofty what a way to Crown a winner of the Santos tour down under they got not going to catch him he’s got the victory in ochre now that is class what a tremendous finish by Steven

The last few days incredible uh I can’t thank them enough staff SW Year’s mechanics the boys the Riders every and Phoebe on the media just uh yeah really proud to come down here start the season like this on the front foot and that finish is perfect for me it’s it’s so
Punchy it’s just luckily I was able to get on the wheel back on the wheel read the situation and yeah capitalized opened up with like 250 to go and everyone’s legs was dead by then so if I thought if I got the jump then I’d be in with a good
Chance what was your first emotion when you crossed the line oh just ah everything goes through your mind everything just yeah I mean just you know how hard this sport is and you know to to win Races they don’t come around very often and uh yeah
To do it here in Australia first world to race of the season is fantastic Del Toro ahead of Naas then Stevie Williams realize they lull momentarily around this corner and it’s the opportunity for him to jump and then it’s all over to Naas to try and run him down but
Unfortunately not enough legs there to be able to run down the ochre Jersey he wins the final stage and he wins the overall World Tour of the Santos tour down under Stevie Williams and he gets a 10-second win bonus to the six seconds of his arch rival l in red NZ and the
