Jay Vine takes first win of 2025 with stunning solo on stage 3 of Settimana Internazionale Coppi e Bartali
Cycling
UAE Team Emirates - XRG's Jay Vine has taken a stunning solo victory on stage 3 of the 2025 Settimana Internazionale Coppi e Bartali in Cesena.
Four riders managed to get themselves in the breakaway of the day, those being Alex Baudin (EF Education-EasyPost), Pascal Eenkhoorn (Soudal - Quick-Step), Marcel Camprubí (Q36.5 Pro Cycling Team) and Alexander Konychev (Team Vorarlberg). By 34km to go though, the entirety of the break had been swallowed up by the peloton.
The next attack came in the form of a two-man move from Jay Vine and Mauri Vansevenant. As they reached the summit of the final climb of the day, the Diolaguardia, Vansevenant was caught by the chase group behind, although it the UAE man Vine took maximum points and carried on solo into the final 10km. Into the last 5km and Vine was still around 18 seconds clear, with the Aussie's hopes of victory looking good. In the end there was no stopping Vine as he soloed all the way to the win ahead of Magnus Sheffield and Simone Velasco from the chase group behind.

- maybe. what makes that a LITTLE fishy is that they suddenly hit the gas and started hammering it. even mathieu, who i’ve never heard complain about ANYTHING (other than teenage girls waking him up and being spit on by belgians) was pretty hacked off about the race tactics after the split. i think he was upset for what his teammates had to do, not for the fact he ended up isolated as a result.OCexile31-03-2025
- It seems that in E3 it wasn’t legit to criticise teams that « took advantage » because there was no radio communication about the incident so they couldn’t know to slow down. Only one source so far but should be quite easy to verify.Mistermaumau31-03-2025
- mads SMOKED it at ghent! love that guy. he’s just the best interview ever, always smart and hilarious and with a biting intolerance for stupidity. happy for him. just as a secondary thought, consider that mvdp beat THAT version of mads by a full minute at E3 two days ago. the gap between pog/mvdp and even tho other GREAT riders like mads is kinda staggering to comprehend. this is a time in cycling history that’s certainly worth paying attention to while it lasts.OCexile31-03-2025
- i watched the race. jasper and roodhooft have a legit anger about this. alpecin burned everyone to pull it back. they did the SAME THING after the split in E3, burning all their guys and thus leaving mathieu to fend for himself (which worked out ok because van der poel is van der poel, but still…). yeah, christopher and jasper should be a little pissed this time.OCexile30-03-2025
- Mads, Ganna, MvdP, Pogi were all in MSR, and will all be in both RVV and PR, the problem here is Remco because he doesn't race anything. This year because of injuries, before that, no idea why notvappaxbipmv30-03-2025
- Will it take oil money to get Mads, Remco, Tadej, Ganna and MVDP to line up for the same classic or monument or will Lady Luck help us with this one.Mistermaumau30-03-2025
- Reminds me of Jungels, instead of discovering what’s wrong, obsessing with getting back to form and making it worse. Could even be he’s built up this mental blockage due to concentrating too much on duelling with (a usually better) MVDP for 15y instead of doing his “own thing”. He was never as good in his head as when he was enjoying exploring his possibilities in the Tour when there was no risk of having to compete with his arch rival.Mistermaumau30-03-2025
- I’m using it here to describe the full pattern of speech. Oceania has always been at war with Eastasia, and all that.RidesHills30-03-2025
- That finale in Barcelona has to be one of the most beautiful circuits ever raced on. Chapeau to Primoz Roglic on taking charge of the race like that, and earning himself a very nice victory.
