The opening race of the WorldTour calendar starts on January 21, 2020 and runs for six stages.

The Tour Down Under is the first chance for riders to test their form and see what they need to work on ahead of the Spring Classics.

For those of us desperate for the season to start again, the Tour Down Under provides the first chance to see transferred riders on their new teams and get a glimpse of everyone in some degree of new kit.

The race will be broadcast on Eurosport, available in satellite TV packages or through the online Eurosport Player. Americans can catch coverage on NBC Sports' streaming app.

The Eurosport website has provided details of when they'll be going live with each stage, which we've listed below. For insomniacs, the schedule will suit perfectly, for everyone else it's probably better to just catch the highlights the next morning.
