Two-Time Tour de France champion Jonas Vingegaard attacks on the ascent to the finish line of an otherwise flat ride along Spain’s picturesque northern coast.
Earlier in the day, Jumbo-Visma said that Belgian rider Nathan van Hooydonck, who was not participating in the Vuelta, had been in a car accident when he “became unwell” while driving on Tuesday. The Dutch team said he was receiving treatment in a hospital.“I am just happy to win today. I mean, we had some terrible news this morning, and I wanted to win it for Nathan,” he said.
Kuss is the first American to lead a Grand Tour since Chris Horner won the 2013 Vuelta. He entered the race as a support rider for Roglic and Vingegaard, but took the red leader’s jersey on Stage 8 and has yet to relinquish it.
