Stage 5 preview: Proton → Genting, 110 km (Mountain)
February 24 update: Stage 5 is the second and final mountain stage with the summit finish to Genting Highlands that is much steeper than the Stage 3 finish to Cameron Highlands. The last 5 km average 9 per cent. Despite six stages still remaining, the unknown Chinese rider Meiyin Wang has such a big lead that failure to beat him by several minutes will almost certainly mean he will win the general classification. After Stage 5, the final stages are relatively flat and don't go beyond 110m elevation which will, of course, make it much easier to defend a lead. — StevePierre Rolland Interview: “For me all of the mountaintop finishes are objectives” — velonation
