Ethan Vernon wins stage 4 of the Guangxi Tour from Bama to Jinchengjiang (176.8km).

Even today, the easy climbs do not particularly select the group. Dewulf and Reinderink , the last escapees to give up, are caught 2 km from the end.

The group sprint, with a light tailwind, is very chaotic: Kanter tries to get ahead, but Vernon , in the red jersey, starts his sprint at the right time and finds his second consecutive victory in this Guangxi Tour. Kanter and Bruttomesso place themselves behind him.

After the race, the race jury assigned a 20" penalty in the general classification to Ethan Vernon: the red leader's jersey therefore passes onto Kanter's shoulders.
