Utah: McCabe wins stage 5; Britton keeps lead

After mistiming Thursday’s sprint finish, Travis McCabe won Friday’s stage 5 with authority at the Larry H. Miller Tour of Utah. UnitedHealthcare’s sprinter came home ahead of Marco Canola (Nippo-Vini Fantini) and Logan Owen (Axeon Hagens Berman), who were second and third, respectively.

Rob Britton kept his overall lead after his Rally team controlled the race over two categorized ascents of Bountiful Bench in the final 35km of the 185.4km race.

On the first time up the Cat. 3 climb, Giulio Ciccone (Bardiani-CSF) led the way. The Italian was also first over the second and final climb, by that point riding solo.

He was soon brought back as attacks flew in the field.

TJ Eisenhart (Holowesko-Citadel) attacked, but he was marked by Rally’s Sepp Kuss.

With three kilometers to go, the race was back together, set for a sprint out of the reduced peloton.

BMC’s Joey Rosskopf started the lead-out with about one kilometer remaining.

Then, Robin Carpenter (Holowesko-Citadel) started his sprint. Remarkably, Carpenter went on to finish fourth on the day, despite crashing hard early in stage 5. After being attended to by race doctors, he was forced to chase back to the peloton, which was 10 minutes up the road after about 70 kilometers of racing.

Rosskopf’s BMC teammate Brent Bookwalter was on Carpenter’s wheel. McCabe was just behind and launched his sprint up the left.

Owen closed fast on the right, but he was sprinting from too far back to challenge either McCabe or Canola.

Saturday’s penultimate stage may decide the final GC standings with a long climb to the finish at Snowbird resort. Stage 6 is also very short at 97.8km and includes another major climb midway through, American Fork Canyon.
