Stephen Williams wins Tour Down Under 2024 and final stage in the Adelaide Hills

Welshman Stephen Williams has won this year's Tour Down Under in South Australia after a thrilling final stage in the Adelaide Hills.

Key points:

  • Stephen Williams won the final stage and was crowned the overall winner of Tour Down Under
  • Jhonatan Narvaez placed second and Isaac del Toro came in third
  • Williams put in a final burst to cross the finish line

The Israel-Premier Tech rider went into the day leading on a countback from Scottish hope Oscar Onley, who had beaten him in the penultimate stage up Willunga Hill on Saturday. 

Several other riders were also a chance for victory, including former leader Isaac del Toro.

Riders faced a challenging 128-kilometre trek from the inner suburban Unley up to Mount Lofty in the Adelaide Hills.

It was initially a game of cat and mouse, with the leading contenders content to sit back in the peloton for much of the day.

It allowed breakaways to regularly get away from the main bunch, with South Africa's Stefan De Bod at one stage in the overall race lead.

However with four kilometres to go the peloton had caught up, with team tactics to prove critical to the finish.

Del Toro made a move with less than two kilometres to go, putting the challenge to Williams and the other contenders.

It didn't last, with Williams seeing his opportunity with 250 metres to go, putting in a withering final burst to finish first and secure the Tour victory.

Jhonatan Narvaez was second, with del Toro third in the stage, a result repeated for the overall placings.

"That finish was perfect for me, it's punchy, it's just I've got a knack for being able to hold and hold and hold. Luckily I was able to get on the wheel, read the situation and capitalise," Williams said immediately after the finish.

"Oh what a stage, over the moon honestly, the support the team have given me in the last two days, incredible. I can't thank them enough.

"Just how hard this sport is and to win races, they don't come round very often and to do it here in Australia, first (UCI) World Tour race for the season is fantastic."

It's Williams' biggest professional moment and sets him up well for the 2024 season.

"Really proud to come down here and start the season like this on the front foot, head back now to Europe and continue on," he said.

About the Down Under Classic

A reworked Tour Down Under Classic Criterium route will have the City of Adelaide Tour Village as backdrop to the men’s curtain-raising ride.

In 2024 the circuit will extend across 1.35 kilometres, starting on Wakefield Street before continuing along Pulteney, Flinders and King William.

Please note: there will be no cross-over areas throughout the duration of the race.

The Santos Tour Down Under’s men’s race gets underway today, with this year’s ride signalling the end of Mike Turtur’s tenure as race director.

Today will be a circuit throughout the Barossa Valley, with it all kicking off in Tanunda.

Ziptrak Stage 1 – January 21

Start – 11am Murray Street/Barossa Valley Way, Tanunda

Finish – 2.45pm ETA Murray Street/Barossa Valley Way, Tanunda

The Barossa hosts the start of the Santos Tour Down Under, but this time fans will have the opportunity to see the peloton pass five times throughout the day.

Stage 1 will start and finish in Tanunda, with a large 30km circuit connecting Bethany, Angaston, Penrice and Nuriootpa.

Best view for you

You’re spoiled for choice on Stage 1, with five loops of every part of the circuit.

Of course Tanunda gifts a start and finish, but whether it’s there or other nearby towns like Nuriootpa and Angaston, you’ll be able to see a whole lot of the WorldTour cyclists.

Start – 11am Onkaparinga Valley Road, Woodside

Finish – 2.23pm ETA Mount Barker Road, Stirling

The Adelaide Hills are the most frequented region of the Santos Tour Down Under and once again the race will host several passes, the first commencing with Novatech Stage 2 from Woodside to Stirling.

The peloton will complete four loops of Woodside and surrounds, including two ascents of Quarry Road for points in Charleston.

On the fourth circuit the riders will deviate east towards Oakbank and Balhannah before the very gradual descent towards Mylor via Hahndorf.

Here, the peloton will hit the popular ‘hills circuit’ connecting Mylor, Aldgate, Stirling and Heathfield four times before a sprint finish in the main Stirling township.

If the bustle of Stirling isn’t for you, you’ll be able to catch plenty of racing action elsewhere on this stage.

Heathfield will feature a quick downhill run which counts for intermediate sprint points on two occasions.

Woodside will also enjoy four passes, which will give you a great opportunity to assess a break should one unfold.

Subaru Stage 3 – January 23

The peloton passes through Inglewood in 2019. Picture: Tricia Watkinson.

Start – 11am King William Road, Unley

Finish – 2.27pm ETA Paracombe Road, Paracombe

Stage 3 sends the peloton out of Unley into the Adelaide Hills for one of the more complex stages of the Tour Down Under in recent memory.

After departing Unley under neutral, the peloton will climb the South Eastern Freeway and exit at Crafers before tackling the previously used route between Piccadilly, Summertown and Uraidla.

Working their way back towards Lobethal, the riders will descend Fox Creek Road towards Cudlee Creek, then turn back towards Lobethal, pass through the township’s main street and exit to Gumeracha.

This is where the fun begins.

Riders will ride into Cudlee Creek and through Chain of Ponds to reach Inglewood, where they will again take on the circuit linking it to Houghton and Paracombe four times before doubling back towards Cudlee Creek and descending Gorge Road.

At Torrens Hill Road, the riders will dig deep for the final climb of the day into Paracombe.

Torrens Hill Road must surely be your place to view given its race-deciding nature the last two times it’s hosted a finish. You can see plenty of action by heading to Paracombe, Inglewood and Houghton for several passes by the peloton.

SouthAustralia.com Stage 4 – January 24

The Women’s Tour Down Under featured a start in Murray Bridge. Picture: AAP/Mike Burton.

Start – 11am Town Hall, Norwood

Finish – 3.08pm ETA Bridge Street, Murray Bridge

Stage 4 sets out from Norwood under neutral before commencing the popular ascent into the Adelaide Hills via Gorge Road.

This stage is straightforward and will suit a sprint finish.

After the Gorge Road climb, riders will traverse a lumpy profile to Kersbrook before ascending to Williamstown and veering south to Mount Pleasant.

The final 5.4% climb at Mount Torrens is a reasonable 5.4% average, and is the curtain-raiser to a downhill out of the Hills and to the Murray River, where riders hit Mannum before pushing out the final 30km to finish in Murray Bridge.

Whether driving or riding, Cudlee Creek is the place to start your day.

Watch the first sprint here before shortcutting to Mount Torrens to catch the only KOM of the day, depending on your mode of transport, that should give you time to head to the finish at Murray Bridge.

Stage 5 of the 2019 Tour Down Under was also Glenelg to Strathalbyn. Picture: Sarah Reed.

Start – 10.40am Colley Terrace, Glenelg

Finish – 2.40pm ETA Esplanade, Victor Harbor

As with the 2019 edition of the race, Stage 5 sets out from Glenelg towards the Fleurieu Peninsula, but this time the peloton will head to Strathalbyn to then deviate south to a finish in Victor Harbor.

This stage could suit a breakaway, with a final climb just before the finish a chance to split the peloton before the finish in Victor Harbor.

There’s plenty of good viewing on this stage, but positioning yourself near the coast at either the Victor Harbor finish or Port Elliot – especially Kerby Hill – will be tough to beat amid an Adelaide summer.

Finish – 2.28pm Brookman Road, Willunga Hill

After the awesome finish to the Tour in 2019, the ‘Queen’ stage retains its race-ending position in 2020.

The peloton will take on the traditional route from McLaren Vale to Willunga, Aldinga Beach, and Tatachilla before tackling two climbs – including the finish – of notorious Willunga Hill.

There are picturesque locations throughout this stage, from the vineyards of McLaren Vale and Willunga to the coastline of Aldinga Beach, Snapper Point and Port Willunga.

But there can be no doubt it’s Willunga Hill where you’ll want to catch the best of the day’s play.

Down Under Classic: Jhonatan Narvaez wins from the break

Sprinters miss out in Tour Down Under warm-up criterium

Jhonatan Narvaez (Ineos Grenadiers) wins the Down Under criterium from the breakaway

Jhonatan Narváez (Ineos Grenadiers) won the Down Under Classic in central Adelaide after the breakaway managed to hold off the sprint teams at the line.

Some sprinters caught the back of the break of six but it was too late for them to thwart the Ecuadorian, who crossed the line ahead of Natnael Tesfazion (Lidl-Trek) and Isaac Del Toro (UAE Team Emirates), with fellow break rider Harry Sweeny (EF Education-EasyPost) just missing out on the podium at the criterium on the 1.35km circuit in central Adelaide. "Really I didn't expect the breakaway to survive today .... but it was important to never lose the motivation to win the race," said Narváez.

It was a close call with the six break riders, which also included Gil Gelders (Soudal QuickStep) and Oscar Onley (dsm-firmenich PostNL). They hit the finish line just before Phil Bauhaus (Bahrain Victorious) won the bunch sprint to take seventh.

"That was the plan, to make the sprint for Elia, but I was in the front and in the end it was a bit easier to stay in the front than come from the back," said  Narváez.

The one hour and one lap race started and finished on Wakefield Street, in central Adelaide, near the Tour Village and the Hilton hotel were riders and staff stay.   Last year's criterium winner, Caleb Ewan, was surprisingly absent after suffering i the heat during training but is expected to line-up at the Tour Down Under on Tuesday. The criterium kicked off with an attack from veteran Bauke Mollema (Lidl-Trek). He was soon caught and for 30 minutes attacks came and were caught as riders blew away some cobwebs, shook out any remains of their jet lag and tried to animate the race. 

Julian Alaphilippe (Soudal-Quick Step) spent a lap off the front but Bora-Hansgrohe took control for new sprinter Sam Welsford, with few other teams willing to help them.  

The break formed at the midpoint of the race, with Del Toro attacking again after already taking an early intermediate sprint. The young Mexican clearly had orders to make a name for himself on his professional debut.

Narváez joined Del Toro on the attack, as did Jack Rootkin-Gray (EF Education-EasyPost), Gil Gelders (Soudal Quick-Step) and Oscar Onley (dsm-firmenich PostNL), then Natnael Tetsfazion and Harry Sweeny (EF Education-EasyPost) jumped across too. 

Bora-Hansgrohe let them go and so a team pursuit match began.  

The break never opened a gap of more than 15 seconds and the seven Bora domestiques struggled to close down the attackers.

The gap came down as the laps ticked down but not fast enough and the attackers sensed a real chance of victory. 

The peloton came up to the back of the attack as the line neared but the sprinters and their teams missed out. Narváez sprinted to victory ahead of Tesfazion to celebrate a surprise but welcomed early victory.
