Stage 5 at Tour of Poyang Lake was again set to end in a bunch sprint although the windy course could have also see a different race. But elthough many riders tried to attack and several break aways made the race very fast, it was the two teams of BIKE AID and Monkeytown to control the race and let it end in a bunch sprint.
At the end Tino Thömel won the sprint and took the victory in front of Hsasein Nateghi and the Dutch sprinter André Looj of Monkeytown
