Jake Stewart (Israel-Premier Tech) has taken a surprise bunch sprint victory on stage 5 of the 2025 Criterium du Dauphine in a chaotic dash for the line at Mâcon, while race leader Remco Evenepoel (Soudal-QuickStep) was caught up in a late crash but could complete the stage.
In the last 300 metres Lidl-Trek were leading the string close to the barriers for leading favourite and stage 2 winner Jonathan Milan, but when Stewart powered past on their right, Milan began to fade notably.
