A flat stage to end the race

Rovira is the leading breakaway rider today


There is a group chasing him, Nydam, Lowe, Cunha, Bahati, Pichot, Landaluze, Martins and Lima


8 riders v 1 but the chasing group would never catch Rovira


The peleton would catch all of them now - perhaps some satisfaction for Nydam who leads the pack as they catch Rovira


Juan van Heerden needs a win today to take the overall, but it is his polish teamate Szcz-something on the front with 3km to go


Biondo looks to take him up the inside


Van Heerden is poorly positioned inside the final km


Gasparotto makes his move!


Victory for the Italian!


2nd for Benoit Sinner as Van Heerden only takes 4th as he finishes quickly - not quick enough to beat that Polish teammate of his


Wes Sulzburger didnt sprint, and in the end he didnt need to. He has won the Tour Down Under
