Jonas Vingegaard won stage nine of the Vuelta a Espana with a solo attack to narrow the gap to overall leader Torstein Traeen to just 37 seconds.<\/p>\n
The two-time Tour de France winner shaved two minutes off Traeen’s lead in the ride from Alfaro to the Valdezcaray ski resort, landing his third stage victory in the event.<\/p>\n
Britain’s Tom Pidcock attempted to stay with the 28-year-old Dane along with Joao Almeida, but finished 24 seconds off the pace in second spot.<\/p>\n
“I felt great today, and I felt amazing on the final climb,” said Visma-Lease a Bike rider Vingegaard.<\/p>\n
“I asked [my team-mates] to accelerate, and they did a great job. It was fantastic teamwork and I’m very happy that I was able to finish it off.”<\/p>\n
Norwegian Traeen launched a late attack in the final three kilometres to finish one minute 46 seconds behind Vingegaard, retaining the red jersey.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Jonas Vingegaard won stage nine of the Vuelta a Espana with a solo attack to narrow the gap…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":110305,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[445],"tags":[49,48,635,82],"class_list":["post-110304","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-cycling","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-cycling","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/110304","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=110304"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/110304\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/110305"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=110304"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=110304"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=110304"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
