Danny van Poppel (Team Sky) se ha vestido el maillot de líder tras su victoria en el prólogo del Herald Sun Tour (2.1), disputado sobre un trazado de 2,1 kilómetros, en el que el corredor holandés ha sido más rápido que Brenton Jones y Alex Frame, ambos del JLT Condor.
Chris Froome (Team Sky), vencedor en 2016 y favorito en esta edición, terminó en la 26º, y Van Poppel, que quería disfrutar de su momento de gloria con la victoria en este prólogo, espera que su compañero de equipo le releve en la etapa de mañana: “Espero poder darle a Chris este maillot de líder. Mañana es un buen día para él, así que vamos a trabajar para él», dijo van Poppel después de recoger la camiseta amarilla. «Sé que soy rápido en el prólogo así que me concentré para ganarlo y nada más. Estoy muy feliz porque siempre estás buscando tu primera victoria para el equipo y para ti y estoy contento de haberlo hecho «.
Jason Christie fue el primero en sentarse en la silla caliente en el prólogo de la 64ª edición del Herald Sun Tour. El piloto de la Selección Nacional de Nueva Zelanda marcó un primer tiempo de 2:40.40 minutos, con Tim Roe (IsoWhey Sports Swisswellness) desalojándolo rápidamente por medio segundo. Alex Frame (JLT Condor) estableció un nuevo récord cuando cruzó la línea en 2:33.56 minutos, tiempo que fue mejorado por Danny van Poppel, quien también estableció un nuevo récord. El corredor del Team Sky utilizó sus habilidades como sprinter y registró un tiempo de 2:32.56 minutos.
