It might help to draw a table to show the riders, and their scores at each stage of the race.
| A | B | C | D | E | |
| Stage 1 | |||||

| Stage 3 | |||||
| Stage 4 | |||||
| Stage 5 | |||||
| Total score |
You can then use the information given in the question to start to fill in some of the cells of the table.
It might also help to work out the total score of all five riders.
There is a lot of information in the question, so be prepared to go back and read it again to see if you have missed anything, or if there is some piece of information that you couldn't use initially which you can use later on.
