Paul Magnier (Soudal-QuickStep) won stage 5 of the CRO Race, triumphing in a reduced sprint finish in Sveta Nedelja, scoring his fourth win in five days.
The Frenchman beat Rui Oliveira (UAE Team Emirates-XRG) and Pau Miquel (Equipo Kern Pharma) to the line at the end of the 150.5km stage, which ended with a select peloton all together after overcoming the tricky challenge of the second-category Plešivica climb 10km from the finish line.
