The stage was marked by a lot of breakaway attempts and
Jumbo-Visma's tactic of dealing with it worked perfectly due to the work of
Rohan Dennis disrupting the escape. Then in the last 3 km
Attila Valter did phenomenal work breaking the peloton into a small group of him, Vingegaard, Ion Izagiire (who crashed on the last km descent) and Ruben Guerreiro who were the strongest climbers.
"First, Rohan Dennis was in the breakaway. He didn't cooperate there, and we kept the gap under control at the same time. We got some unexpected help in the meantime, which of course was nice. When we arrived at the last climb, I called out that I wanted to go for it. Attila Valter did a great lead on the final climb. Everything went perfectly", he said.
With this win, Vingegaard has increased his lead to 53 seconds ahead of Ruben Guerreiro of Movistar Team and to 1 minute and 24 seconds to Jesus Herrada of Team Cofidis. The Dane goes comfortably to the last stage a 17.9 km ITT and has everything to win the overall of O Gran Camiño.
"I looked at tomorrow's course before the race started today. It looks good. I'm looking forward to it. We have a good team for the time trial and my lead is now 50 seconds. Hopefully, I can take the overall win and I also saw that Attila is now fourth. It would be cool if he can be on the podium.", Vingegaard concluded.
