At the end of the day the stage victory went to an ecstatic Stuart Shaw (Drapac-Porsche). “I just had my appendix out and had surgery. I had three months off my bike and this is my first race in five months,” he said. “The team sent me here, which was nice, to come and help Peter [McDonald] win the King of the Mountain and to help Adiq Othman. I just came here to help the team and every day I got a little bit stronger. Today I felt good near the sprint. So I had a bit of a go. It was a nice result.”
McDonald was, as expected, very satisfied to head home with the red climber’s jersey. “It has been a long week, with lots of racing. There were little climbs to try to get a point here, get a point there,” he explained. “Yesterday I was a bit disappointed to miss out on a few opportunities leading up to the big climb [Genting Highlands]. I finished fourth up the big climb and to not actually have the jersey [was frustrating]….I needed one more point. Today worked out all right with the team. They did a good job to lead me out for the climb. They were very aggressive in the corners leading up to it, and that helped us to make the gap. I was able to get the sprint.”
