Vingegaard wins on Vuelta mountain
Jonas Vingegaard won stage two on the Vuelta a Espana on Sunday on a cool, rainy 10km climb to Limone with Italian climber Giulio Ciccone in second.
Vingegaard also climbed to the top of the rankings as overnight leader Jasper Philipsen struggled in the finale.
The Danish rider from Visma now tops the overall standings of the 21-day race 4sec ahead of Ciccone with Frenchman David Gaudu third, Egan Bernal fourth and Tom Pidcock fifth.
The second of four stages starting in Italy featured a final climb of almost 10km at over five percent gradient.
On a seasonally cool day of 20C with almost no wind, it rained briefly as Philpsen led the peloton out in a full red outfit including helmet and glasses.
Pidcock and Vingegaard were among a group of riders hitting the deck at the foot of the final climb.
A grinding all day ascent on a short but winding 138.5kn run to Ceres in the midst of the Graian Alps awaits the peloton on Monday's third stage.
