"It's been a while since my last victory, I'm super happy with how I felt and how the team did today. Also super happy to have the red jersey, Vingegaard said."
"I went down pretty hard, but it seems like I didn't hurt myself too bad. I have a bit of bruises, but I think because it was so slippery, I was sliding more so I didn't really get any bad road rash or anything, Vingegaard said."
Jonas Vingegaard won the mountainous second stage of the Vuelta a España, outsprinting Giulio Ciccone on the climb to Limone Piemonte and taking the red jersey. Vingegaard crashed earlier in a separate incident at a roundabout, briefly leaving the tarmac and sustaining a bloodied left elbow before rejoining the peloton. Rain made descents treacherous and forced Guillaume Martin-Guyonnet to withdraw after a crash. David Gaudu finished third. An early four-rider breakaway built a two-minute advantage on flat terrain but was caught as the road dried and the peloton reduced the gap during the final 10km ascent.
