Leaving Them All Behind TDU17-28
Richie Porte (BMC) did what he has done three time previously on Willunga Hill, he rode absolutely everyone off of his wheel. The difference for Porte today was that he was already in the Ochre Jersey of race leader. His fourth victory on the top of Willunga Hill all but guarantees his overall victory. In addition he keeps himself even on KOM points with Thomas De Gendt (Lotto Soudal). Behind Porte and fading rather quickly are Sergio Henao (Sky), Esteban Chaves (Orica-Scott) and Rafael Valls (Lotto Soudal), none of whom could hold the wheel of the very motivated leader of BMC.
