Vingegaard Claims Emphatic Paris-Nice Triumph
Jonas Vingegaard extended his overall lead to 4 minutes, 23 seconds and won both the climber's and sprinter's jerseys at Paris-Nice, marking a historic victory.
- On Sunday, Jonas Vingegaard, a two-time Tour de France champion, won Paris-Nice in Nice, France, with the biggest margin since 1939, organizers said.
- Earlier this week, Vingegaard rode a dominant breakaway on the hilly fifth stage and later attacked about 20 kilometers from the finish, a move only Lenny Martinez, Bahrain Victorious rider, could follow.
- Vingegaard's final margin reached 4 minutes, 23 seconds over Dani Martinez, and he unusually claimed both the climber's polka-dot and sprinter's green jerseys while Georg Steinhauser rounded out the podium.
- Vingegaard is set for his Giro d'Italia debut in May while chasing a third Tour de France crown this year, having stepped up preparations after losses to Tadej Pogačar.
- His Tour wins in 2022 and 2023 and last year's Vuelta boost his credentials, positioning him as a contender for the 113th Tour starting in July.
