Doppietta per Matteo Pelucchi (Androni Giocattoli Sidermec) che ha vinto la sesta tappa del Tour de Langkawi 2019 con partenza da Bagan e arrivo dopo 130,8 km in una città sempre abbracciata dal giro malese, Alor Setar. Seconda posizione per Joucef Reguigui e terza per Salleh Hariff (entrambi della TSG); non cambia la classifica generale.

E in fronte alla moschea si è conclusa questa frazione velocissima corsa a ritmi molto elevati un po’ per il percorso che lo permetteva e un po’ perché c’era voglia di finire non troppo tardi per prendere il traghetto per Langkawi dove la competizione si chiuderà sabato. I corridori non hanno affatto cincischiato: partiti alle 9,40 in 118 con la defezione di Ilya Devidenok (Shenzhen) e con Ben Dyball in maglia gialla, c’è stato subito un attacco di Potter (Sunshine), Oram (Mitchelton) e Zenovich (St George) che in questa sequenza sono transitati al primo sprint di Sungai Petani al km 27,6 con circa 30 secondi di vantaggio sul gruppo.

Il gruppo è dunque piombato sui fuggitivi dopo il 40esimo chilometro e si è spezzato in due parti. Un nuovo tentativo comprendeva Ovechkin (TSG), Nur Aiman (Sapura), Tvetcov e Zukowsky (Floyd's), Potter (Sunshine), Zenovich (St George), Duploy (ProTouch), Oram (Mitchelton), Davids (Oliver’s) e Clint Hendricks (ProTouch).

Il secondo tentativo annoverava Eyob (TSG), Benfatto (Androni), Marengo (Neri), Bresciani (Bardiani), Nur Aiman (Sapura), Jean (Floyd's), Koichi (Ukyo), Potter (Sunshine) e Hendricks (ProTouch) inseguiti da un secondo gruppetto con Maestri (Bardiani), Clarke e Zukowsky (Floyd's), Chretien (Interpro), Crome (Ukyo), Astafyev (Vino), Ovett (Sunshine), Wiggins e Reardon (St George), Chaves (Mitchelton), Andrews e Davids (Oliver's), Iribe (Japan), Nurfitri and Shamir (Malaysia) che si sono presto ricompattati.

Dopo aver raggiunto un vantaggio massimo di circa due minuti, si è disputato un altro sprint a Gurun (km 52.8), i passaggi: 1. Nur Aiman, 2. Hendricks, 3. Ovechkin, 4. Oram. Il tentativo si è esaurito dopo 80 km, ma ne è partito poco dopo un altro grazie alla propulsione di Cristian Raileanu (Sapura) seguito da Ovechkin (TSG), Rosa (Neri), Vorobyev (Gazprom), Donohoe (Sunshine), Murtagh (Oliver's) e Iribe (Japan) con Vorobyev che ha perso contatto quasi da subito e il gap che non si è mai espanso più di 1’25’’.

Intorno ai -10km il gruppo è diventato definitivamente compatto e si è arrivati allo sprint con Pelucchi ancora una volta pilotato al meglio da Benfatto a vincere nettamente.
