Jonas Vingegaard and his teammates have crushed their rivals in the Spanish Vuelta’s 13th stage. The two-time Tour de France champion led a 1-2-3 finish for Jumbo-Visma atop the legendary Col du Tourmalet.
Roglic moved into second overall in the general classification at 1 minute, 37 seconds behind Kuss. Vingegaard is third at 1:44 back.
There are still eight stages to go, with some tough mountains rides ahead, before the race finishes in Madrid on Sept. 17. The nearest challenger to Jumbo-Visma is now Juan Ayuso of UAE Team Emirates at 2:37 back. Enric Mas of Movistar is 3:06 adrift.“I could not choose a better day, today is the birthday of my daughter,” Vingegaard said. “Our plan was to see if we could take some time from our opponents. I am just so proud for my daughter.”
