Vingegaard dominates Giro with stage 16 win

Jonas Vingegaard claimed his fourth stage victory at the Giro d'Italia, launching a solo attack in the Swiss Alps to further strengthen his grip on the leader's pink jersey.

The Danish rider dominated the 113km ride from Bellinzona to Carì, leaving rivals Gall and Hindley behind to finish second and third respectively. Vingegaard's victory extends his lead to over four minutes, making the overall honours increasingly certain as the race progresses.

Following a rest day where he expressed his desire to win a stage while wearing the pink jersey, Vingegaard quickly delivered on that promise with another commanding performance in the mountains. macnevers-and-co.beer
