Jay Vine’s solo attack wins Vuelta’s sixth stage as Vingegaard loses lead to Traeen

Australian seals stage win in adopted home of Andorra

Vingegaard more than two minutes behind overall leader

Australian cyclist Jay Vine launched a solo attack off a breakaway group in the final 20 kilometres to win stage six of the Vuelta a España on Thursday, with Torstein Traeen of Norway taking second place and the overall race lead from Jonas Vingegaard.

Vine was part of a 10-man group which got away early on the 170.3km ride from Olot to Pal in Andorra, before the UAE Team Emirates-XRG rider went for broke and held off the chasers to secure the third individual Vuelta stage win of his career.
