AFP, ADELAIDE, AustraliaAustralia’s Caleb Ewan yesterday won his second stage of the Tour Down Under as Richie Porte’s overall race lead was clipped to just three seconds by defending champion Daryl Impey. Ewan, who won Wednesday’s second stage for Belgian team Lotto Soudal to lead the general classification for a day, sprinted past Irish first-stage winner Sam Bennett to win the fourth stage of the season-opener in Murray Bridge. “I just told my last man to put me on the wheel of Sam Bennett, and that’s what he did. I think we are in a good position.”South African Impey, seeking three consecutive wins in Australia, claimed three crucial bonus seconds in the intermediate sprints and moved to within three seconds of the race leader. “We will need a buffer to try to win the race overall, so any chance we can get, we are going to go for it and we did that today.
