Stage 7 - November 18: Changjiang - Wuzhishan, 210.6 km
The Boris show continues
By Steve Thomas in Wuzhishan

Boris Shpilevskiy won the penultimate stage of the Tour of Hainan – his fifth win in the nine-day event – over Australian Peter John Herzig and six seconds on Ireland's David McCann. The Russian maintains his race lead by 1:05 over McCann.
"Wow!" and the shaking of heads is all most GC contenders could manage when watching as race leader Shpilevskiy left them all in his wake to another stage and increase his overall lead.
Today's stage covered some 210 kilometres in in hot and sticky conditions. Races raced between the inland towns of Changjiang and Ledong, before crossing a 729 metre first category climb, within ten kilometres of the finish line in Wuzhishan. Pundits anticipated it to be the decisive stage of the race, and indeed it was, but things didn't quite go as they had thought.
It didn't take long for things to hot up, as 50 kilometres into the race the riders hit a long rough section of road, and then started climbing for the first time. The climb was narrow and grinding, and the crowds that turned out to watch the race were amazing, especially for a race outside of Europe.
The pressure was on all day. The distance and constant grinding of the pace slowly broke the filed apart from the rear of the peloton inwards. Somewhere along the way a stray pig decided to join in the fun, causing Panasonic rider Kris Kokc to hit the deck; he was taken to hospital, and is not seriously injured, but the encounter ended his race.
Iranian climbers, David McCann, and other hopefuls were close to the front as the race approached the final climb. They hoped to make a last gasp attempt to dislodge the Russian sprinter Shpilevskiy. They did what they could, with Australian Peter Herzig (Panasonic) making the summit first, ahead of the serious climbers, but with the Russian comfortably behind in fifth spot.
There was nothing but a predominantly downhill 10-kilometre run in to the stage finish left to try and take something out of the Shpilevskiy. He took things into his own hands and went clear with Herzig, and then sprinted home ahead of a broken and shattered field to take the stage.
He increased his overall lead to 1:05 over Giant Asia's McCann. With just one final 102-kilometre road stage left in the race it seems highly unlikely – barring accidents – that anyone will be able to take the lead away from Shpilevskiy. Whether he will chose to rub noses in it by going for the final stage waits to be seen. There are just two third category climbs along the way to the finish in Sanya, and both come early in the stage. The rest of the way is flat and poised for another bunch sprint.
