Cycling, Gran Camiño: Vingegaard also dominates the time trial. And Jumbo takes it all

The king of the Tour starts 2023 strong. Three stages, three victories and the success of the stage race. Only the snow was able to stop Jonas Vingegaard. The 26-year-old Dane dominated the Gran Camiño with two uphill successes and with today’s time trial (18.1 km with a 35″ lead over Dennis and 59″ over Barta; 16th Velasco at 1’39”), the icing on the cake of his first outing of the season in Galicia. An extraordinary week is completed for Jumbo Visma with the first and third place on Saturday at the Omloop (success for Van Baarle, De Lie third) and with today’s success at the Kuurne-Bruxelles-Kuurne of the Belgian Tiesj Benoot.
