Jay Vine climbed to victory on the first high mountain finish of the Vuelta a España on stage six, as his fellow breakaway rider Torstein Træen took the race lead.
UAE Team Emirates-XRG’s Vine attacked with just over 20km to go on Thursday, and was never seen by the other nine members of the day’s escape. Træen of Bahrain Victorious clipped away from the other chasers to claim the red jersey.
Træen, while unfancied as an overall contender, now has 2:33 on Vingegaard, with the other GC favourites trailing further seconds behind.
