January 17/18 7:59 am - Tour Down Under: Stage 2
Posted by Editoress on 01/17/18
Mitchelton-SCOTT conquered Stirling with Caleb Ewan claiming Stage 2 ahead of teammate Daryl Impey.
BORA-hansgrohe riders Jay McCarthy and Peter Sagan finished third and fourth respectively.
With former Leader Andre Greipel finishing further down the finishing order, the result meant that Ewan streaked to the top of the Santos general, southaustralia.com sprint and #seesouthaustralia Young Rider classifications heading into Stage 3 from Glenelg to Victor Harbor.
The scorching finish from the Mitchelton-SCOTT duo capped a day where the peloton took its time, while a lone warrior pushed ahead through the Adelaide Hills.
That man was young Spaniard Jaime Castrillo (Movistar), who held a consistent three-minute gap to the peloton after the breakaway cleared the final intermediate sprint in Mylor.
It was reminiscent of the performance shown by Australian Will Clarke (EF Education First-Drapac p/b Cannondale) in Tuesday's opening stage.
Clarke wasn't far from the action, forming an early four-man breakway as the peloton commenced racing at Walkley Heights with Tuesday counterparts Nic Dlamini (Dimension Data), Scott Bowden (UniSA-Australia) and Castrillo.
Dlamini again cemented his Subaru King of the Mountain ownership with maximum points up North East Road in Tea Tree Gully.
The South African then faded away, where Clarke, Castrillo and Bowden jockeyed for southaustralia.com intermediate sprint points in Oakbank and Mylor – Clarke winning both battles.
Antoine Duchesne (FDJ) the only Canadian entry finished 110th, 9:55 behind the winner, and now sits 110th in GC at 10:11 back.
