Chile to go in the sprint

The fifth stage of the Vuelta de Chile saw no changes in the overall classification, as the riders raced 165 kilometres from San Fernando to Talca. There were some attempts at escapes, but none were successful in the long run. Those that tried inlcuded Mexico's Jose Garcia, and Steve Speaks of 7Up/Colorado Cyclist. They managed to get a large lead by the 70 kilometre point. However were reeled back by race leader Andriss Reiss' Sintofarm team, as they threatened his overall lead. The German Agro Adler Brandenburg squad also helped them in this task. The finish was then a massive bunch sprint - 88 riders in all arrived together with Angel Perez of Ekono Chile being victorious over Victor Garrido (Publiguias) and Arturo Corvalan (Curicó).

Reiss continued to hold his lead, followed closely by Richard Rodriguez of the Curicó Cycling Union and Sven Harms of Rabié Omo Chillán.
