Vingegaard soloes to victory in Paris-Nice fifth stage

Jonas Vingegaard extended his overall lead by 3 minutes 22 seconds after winning Stage 5 in a dominant breakaway, showing strong climbing form ahead of Grand Tours.

  • Yesterday, the cyclist won Stage 5 of Paris–Nice in Colombier-le-Vieux, emerging from a dominant breakaway that highlighted his climbing strength.
  • Vingegaard has intensified preparations after recent defeats by Tadej Pogačar and is targeting a Paris–Nice title and Giro d'Italia debut in May, aiming for all three Grand Tours.
  • He finished 2:02 ahead of Valentin Paret-Peintre and 2:20 ahead of Harold Tejada, as rivals could not stay with Vingegaard on the last four climbs, and he waved near the finish.
  • Having also won Stage 4 on Wednesday, Vingegaard leads Colombian Daniel Martínez by 3:22 overall, strengthening his position as a two-time Tour de France champion, with the race ending Sunday in Nice.
  • Looking toward later this year, Vingegaard aims for Giro and Tour prep as the 113th Tour starts on July 4 and the race ends Sunday in Nice.
