Jonas Vingegaard has won all four mountain finishes of this year's Giro d'Italia and now leads the race by more than four minutes, but we could now see the Dane relent in his dominance and even start working for his teammates.

Following his victory at Carì on stage 16 on Tuesday, Vingegaard said he would be "very proud" to help out his leading mountain domestique Davide Piganzoli, who is within reach of the white jersey for the best young rider, while also name-checking Sepp Kuss, who could complete the set of stage wins in all three Grand Tours.
