Tadej Pogacar soars to victory at Jaen Paraiso Interior

Tadej Pogacar took the win at the Jaen Paraiso Interior after establishing a lead 30 kilometres from the finish line and holding onto it until the end. This marks his first victory of the season.

A group of five riders, Andrés Camilo Ardila, Xabier Mikel Azparren, Mathis Le Berre, Sergio Samitier, and Matthijs Paasschens, broke away from the peloton and worked together to create a lead of 3 minutes and 40 seconds.

With only 60 kilometres remaining, everyone except Samitier and Azparren fell behind and rejoined the main group. The peloton caught the breakaway 40 kilometres before the finish line. Tadej Pogacar attacked solo with 30 kilometres to go and took a lead of 1 minute.

In the next 20 kilometers, Pogacar expanded his lead to over 1 minute and 40 seconds. Just before the the final 8 kilometres, he suffered a puncture, but he was able to quickly get back on his bike and did not lose much time.

Tadej Pogacar maintained his lead and crossed the finish line a minute ahead of others and secured the win, while Ben Turner took second place and Tim Wellens secured the bronze .
