- Sam Bennett (Deceuninck-Quickstep) won Stage 1 and is first leader in the general classification.
- South Australian Premier Steven Marshall commenting on the region: "Spectators can not only enjoy some elite cycling action but can also experience everything the Barossa has to offer – from the region’s quality produce to world-class wineries only a stone’s throw away from the racing. The Barossa region is a popular destination for domestic and international travellers, helping to put South Australia on the map. It’s great to be able to have the cycling go straight through here so visitors can make the most of their time in this fantastic part of the state."
- Mike Turtur, Race Director: "The design of our race is a unique feature of the event and this year we have three days for both the sprinters and the all-rounders. We’re going back to Paracombe and will climb Willunga Hill again for the finale in Be Safe Be Seen Stage 6 but also have a fast race set for today in the Barossa and we’ll challenge the peloton with a return to Stirling. We recognise that circuit racing gives people the opportunity to see the race multiple times and really does allow the full colour of the race to be presented to spectators. The riders like them too because they can familiarise themselves with the circuit and the climbs, and it reduces the danger of corners because they do them multiple times."

- Caleb Ewan (Lotto Soudal) won the 2020 Men's Tour Down Under Schwalbe Classic. Said Ewan post-race: "I started this season, I think, with a bit of pressure to replicate what I did last year or try to grow my wins on top of that. This is my first race of the season, usually, I’ve done some races before but I felt really good out there. I was pretty relaxed for the first half sitting down the back and then when I needed to go, I got up into position and that was it.
- Simona Frapporti (BePink) won Stage 4. Ruth Winder (Trek-Segafredo) wins the 2020 Women's Tour Down Under. Frapporti following her stage win said: "It’s always nice to win on the first stage race of the year. Coming from Italy, we were behind the locals in terms of condition but I was feeling very well today. So I took my chance. I’m sure my two brothers [Marco and Mattia Frapporti] who are professional cyclists too will be happy to hear that I’m a winner today. It’s important to start an Olympic year with a victory. It’s perfect for the confidence."
- Ruth Winder following her overall victory in the 2020 Women's TDU: "It feels pretty crazy to win the Santos Tour Down Under. Team Sunweb and Mitchelton-SCOTT really put us under pressure. I’m really happy to pull it off. I’m still really excited after the stage I won yesterday. It’s such an incredible feeling. It’s not a single person’s sport. For every win, you need a strong team. I wish my team-mates could accompany me on the podium."

- Ruth Winder (Trek-Segafredo) won Stage 3 and took over the lead on G.C. Winder had this to say after the stage: "My teammate Tayler Wiles, she was just leading me out perfectly. I was talking to her the whole time, we’ve been teammates for years and she’s helped me with so many wins, so every time I do I feel so grateful for her in the last 500 metres. The whole team the entire race was really active at the front covering things, making sure I was really safe until the circuits, which were pretty hard with Mitchelton-SCOTT destroying it on the times pretty much."
- Amanda Spratt (Mitchelton-Scott) won Stage 2 and is new overall leader. Spratt post-stage: "Very, very, very excited. We had a solid team plan today, we knew it could be really hard in the final if we made it that way, and that’s exactly what we did. The girls did it perfectly into the climb, Lucy [Kennedy] did her job in the climb and split it into a group of five – we had three and five – and then we knew we just had to make it hard after that. I’m really excited that I could win that sprint in the end. After a great team effort it’s the best way to win."
- Chloe Hosking (Rally Cycling) won Stage 1 of the women's race and is first leader in the general classification. Said Hosking post-stage: "I am just so proud of the girls, it's our first race all together but you wouldn't know it on the road. They were always there, when there was trouble in the wind they were rolling, and they did exactly what we planned in the finish which was just to keep the speed high and keep me out of trouble...we committed to our plan and we executed it."

2024 santos tour down under race preview.
The men’s cycling World Tour kicks off in Australia on January 16, 2024 with the Tour Down Under. First run in 1999 it gained World Tour status in 2008 to guarantee it attracts a field stacked with talent to do battle on the sun-parched roads of South Australia.
Held in the state capital Adelaide at the peak of the Australian summer, the race's six stages feature a mix of terrain but it's likely to be the final two that decide the outcome. The summit finishes of Willunga Hill on Stage 5 and Mount Lofty on Stage 6 will be key to deciding who gets to keep the leader's Ochra Jersey. Although both climbs have been used before this is the first time they have been used in the same edition of the race.
With last year’s winner Jay Vine opting not to defend his title there will be a new name on the trophy this year and the favourites are likely to come from the home team, Jayco-AlUla. With former Vuelta winner Simon Yates and new signing and 2023 Australian Champ Luke Plapp, they will be the force to beat.
They will also be the team to beat on the race’s opening four flatter stages with their other new signing, another Australian, Caleb Ewen going for the win in the sprints.
Other big names to look out for are the twin Time trial specialists from Ineos, Filippo Ganna and Josh Tarling. The mercurial Frenchman Julian Alaphilippe, Kiwi, Finn Fisher-Black and the Aussies Sam Welsford and Matt Dinham.
The race, as expected came down to the final climb of Mount Lofty but with so many riders so close the winner was far from decided. The stage started with the largest break of the week being allowed to escape with seven riders going up the road but they were never given much rope with their lead capped at around 3 minutes. Behind the teams of the leader Stephen Williams (Israel-Premier Tech), and yesterday’s stage winner Oscar Onley controlled the peloton , shepherding their leaders to the big finale.
The first two ascents of the steady climb wore the legs down of both break and peloton then hitting the base for the final time the heat was well and truly on. The break managed to survive until 3 kilometres to go then it was the early race leader Isaac Del Torro who took up the pace and ripped the front apart. Taking a group of 4 with him including the leader Williams this was the decisive move. Del Torro opened up the sprint but it was Williams who triumphed taking both the stage win and the overall race win.

How to watch a Santos Tour Down Under live stream in the UK
With the demise of GCN+ (as reported in Cycling News ), live coverage of the 2024 Santos Tour Down Under will be broadcast on Eurosport and Discovery+. However the broadcast timings are quite brutal with the stages starting 00:40 am each day.
A standard subscription to Discovery+ will set you back £6.99 per month or £59.99 per year. That is more than GCN+ but the package includes all cycling coverage as well as sports including snooker, tennis, motorsports, the Paris Olympic Games, and more.
If you're currently traveling overseas, don't worry, as you can use ExpressVPN to watch from abroad.

Simon Warren has been obsessed with cycling since the summer of 1989 after watching Greg Lemond battle Laurent Fignon in the Tour de France. Although not having what it took to beat the best, he found his forte was racing up hills and so began his fascination with steep roads. This resulted in his 2010’s best-selling 100 Greatest Cycling Climbs , followed to date by 14 more guides to vertical pain. Covering the British Isles, Belgium, France, Italy and Spain he has been riding and racing up hills and mountains for over 30 years now. He hosts talks, guides rides, has written columns for magazines and in 2020 released his first book of cycling routes, RIDE BRITAIN . Simon splits his time between working as a graphic designer and running his 100 Climbs brand and lives in Sheffield on the edge of the Peak District with his wife and two children.

Bilbao wins stage 3 of the tour down under - live coverage.
GC battle set to erupt on steep late hill during 116.8km stage to Campbelltown
Tour Down Under results and news Tour Down Under preview How to watch the Tour Down Under – live streaming Tour Down Under rips up script before decisive stages in Adelaide hills – Analysis Rohan Dennis wins stage 2 of the Tour Down Under
Hello and welcome to our live coverage of the potentially pivotal third stage of the 2023 Tour Down Under!
We're just moments away from the start of what could be a stage that decides the GC. It's a relatively short one at 117km, but it packs a punch with three of Adelaide’s toughest climbs, Norton Summit, Checker Hill and Corkscrew Road.
It's going to be a huge stage for the GC contenders with three big climbs on tap. Rohan Dennis (TJV) is leading the race by 3 seconds ahead of Jay Vine (UAD). Third is Magnus Sheffield (IGD), who is also the best young rider, sitting at 12 seconds.
The race is still riding through neutral before race director Stuart O'Grady waves the flag for the official start.
As soon as the flag drops, the peloton will be climbing toward Norton Summit for the next seven kilometres.
And we're away and racing! No attacks from the start, but the big teams are already at the front.
We have a move from EF Education-Eastpost's Mikkel Honore. He's up the road along, with no response from the peloton.
Honore is the first to attack at on stage 3 of the Tour Down Under.
Honore has some help from Astana's Fabio Felline who just bridged across to join the EF Education Easypost rider. They have a gap of 1'44" with 108.7km to go.
102km to go
We've reached the top of the first classified climb and Honore got over line first to scoop up 7 points. Felline was second for 5 and Plapp took third for 3 points.
With that three points, Plapp is now virtually tied with Jay Vine for the KOM jersey.
The gap has catapulted up to 3'30" with Jumbo Visma at the helm of the peloton.
Jumbo Visma seem to be happy to let the duo up the road to gain even more time, as the gap is teetering close to four minutes with 94km to go.
We're now on the approach to Lobethal where the riders will cross the first intermediate sprint. Caleb Ewan is leading the points competition, with time bonuses also on offer, it will be interesting to see if any GC contenders have a go at it.
It's 22 degrees out there at the moment, pretty perfect conditions for a bike race. The leaders are still working well together and trading pulls.
Felline was the first over the line at the intermediate sprint, followed, of course, by Honore. Kaden Groves was third out of the peloton.
The peloton is getting serious with the tempo rising, however we have a way to go before the second intermediate sprint, which comes in the next 20km.
Now Jumbo Visma is getting some help from Alpecin Fenix at the front of the peloton.
The gap is holding at 3'39" to the two riders off the front. The tempo is steady in the pack.
We're halfway through today's stage, soon they'll be on a long descent into Williamston and the intermediate sprint.
The riders will see plenty of these signs along the Tour Down Under routes this week. It's truly a unique part of what makes this race special.
Felline took the second intermediate sprint once again, with Honore taking second.
The gap has gone way down to 1'35" as the kilometres tick down. We're getting down to business as the race passes the 50km to go point.
It's 1'12 to the break and more teams are coming to the front as they think about positioning on the final two climbs.
The duo is just inside a minute ahead of the peloton. The catch might be made on or before Checker Hill.
Moscon and Basso, two Astana riders, have taken a tumble together. Moscon looks like he's really nursing his shoulder. Oftentimes that means a collarbone injury, but that's yet to be confirmed.
We're climbing up Checker Hill and Ethan Hayter (Ineos) is showing signs of struggle. He's hanging on the back of the peloton as others start to lose contact.
Honore takes the max points on Checker Hill ahead of Felline. Hindley was third just ahead of Yates.
Honore is the only rider off the front after Checker Hill with a 30 second gap. Felline is back in the peloton.
Several big names have dropped off the back of the peloton during the climb on Checker Hill including Geraint Thomas and Miles Scotson.
Honore has taken the virtual lead of the KOM competition at 17 points with the Corkscrew climb left to go. Felline is second with 11 points.
The peloton is on their way toward the famous Corkscrew climb. It's mostly downhill until the hit the base with 5.8km to go to the finish.
We've just had a crash with Corbin Strong and Harrison Wood involved. Chris Froome was at the side fixing his bike, but we're not sure if he went down.
We're just 9km away from the start of the climb, and 17km until the end of the race.
The peloton is flying down the descent before the turn onto Corkscrew Road.
There isn't much time left to improve positioning in the peloton before the fireworks start. It's now or never to move up.
Simon Yates is up near the front looking dangerous. Jay Vine is also there. Ben O'Connor, who's looking for a stage win, is sitting second wheel behind his teammates.
The Corkscrew is relatively short at 2.4km, but the average gradient is a stinging 9 percent.
Rohan Dennis is in trouble already. He was caught out of position at the base and can't keep the pace with the climbers.
Jay Vine is the first to attack on the climb, and Simon Yates is swiftly on his wheel.
Pello Bilbao has bridged across to Yates and Vine as the near the top.
The three best climbers of the race have pulled away on this climb. Vine gets over the top first and takes the max KOM points, Yates follows.
Yates, Vine and Bilbao are ahead of a reduced peloton by 15 seconds with 5.4km to go.
The three leaders are trading turns as they make their way down the descent toward the finish in Campbelltown.
Just 2km to go and the three off the front are working well.
Now 1km to go. We're on the edge of the city and Vine moves to the front to get as much time as possible.
Vine leads it out and Pello Bilbao wins the sprint against Yates! Jay Vine will take the ochre jersey off the back of Rohan Dennis.
Pello Bilbao (Bahrain Victorious) outsprints Simon Yates (Jayco-Alula) to take the win on stage 3 of the Santos Tour Down Under. Jay Vine (UAE Team Emirates) finished third and moves into the ochre jersey.

Rohan Dennis' stage derailed after an unfortunately timed bike change, costing him the ochre jersey. “The gears just stopped working. I was stuck in one gear and I thought that’s probably not smart for the last 40km,” Rohan Dennis told Cyclingnews just past the finish line.
