2023-09-30 12:56:00

5th day on this CRO Race and new chance for the sprinters. During this 5th stage, joining Crikvenica to Ozalj over 189 kilometers, it is Orluis Aular which imposed itself. The Venezuelan of Rural Bank – RGA Insurance, was the fastest during a rather unusual final sprint, where the teams only really set off 3 kilometers from the finish. On the line, Aula has anticipated Alexander Kristoff (Uno-X Pro Cycling Team) and the two friends of the training INEOS Grenadiers, Ethan Hayter et Elia Viviani. And the day is perfect for the Venezuelan, since he also takes the leader’s red jersey. Thanks to the bonuses acquired on arrival, he is now ahead Magnus Sheffield et Ethan Hayter (INEOS Grenadiers) by 9″. Note that the American fell in the last kilometer, but was able to get up and was reclassified in the winner’s time.

The day before, Matej Mohoric won the 4th stage
