As Jonas Vingegaard (Visma-Lease a Bike) takes a 48-second lead into the final week of the Vuelta a España and eyes a third career Grand Tour victory, he only has one regret from the first two weeks of the race – not winning up the iconic Alto de l'Angliru.
The Dane has won two stages, to Limone Piemonte and Valdezcaray, but couldn't help but mention the Asturian climb, where second place overall, João Almeida (UAE Team Emirates-XRG), was simply too strong and pipped him to the victory, when asked about his satisfaction with the opening two-thirds of the Vuelta.
