Un testa a testa appassionante, una tappa finale che non ha deluso le attese al Tour Down Under: Simon Yates ha trionfato sul traguardo della quinta tappa a Mount Lofty battendo in un sprint a due l'australiano Jay Vine.
La prima parte della tappa è stata caratterizzata da un attacco portato da 13 atleti, ma è parso subito chiaro che il gruppo non avrebbe lasciato loro spazio. Così, dopo un attacco di Maximilian Schachmann (BORA – hansgrohe), si è formato un nuovo plotoncino di nove attaccanti ma a otto chilometri dalla conclusioen c'è stato un nuovo raggruppamento.
È stato Yates, ovviamente, il più determinato a dar battaglia con l'obiettivo di ribaltare la generale e soffiare il successo final a Vine. IL britannico ha attaccato in particolare a due chilometri dalla conclusione, solo Vine e O'Connor sono riusciti a resistergli. Sul rettilineo finale O'Connor si è sfilato, i due hanno battagliato per il successo e la tappa è andata al vbritannico della Jayco AlUla mentre Vine ha conquistato il successo finale. Ancora buoni segnali, per i colori italiani: Alberto Bettiol è stato protagonista anche oggi, Antonio Tiberi e Giovanni Aleotti hanno chiuso nella top ten di giornata.
