Jonas Vingegaard won stage nine of the Giro d'Italia for the second time in three days. He attacked near the end of the climb to the finish and rode solo to victory on the 184km route from Cervia to Corno alle Scale. Felix Gall attacked late, and Vingegaard initially tracked him before accelerating in the closing kilometre. Davide Piganzoli finished third for Visma-Lease a Bike. Afonso Eulalio delivered another strong performance, finishing fifth, 41 seconds behind Vingegaard, and retained the pink jersey. After Monday’s rest day, the race moves to a 42km individual time trial from Viareggio to Massa on Tuesday.
"Jonas Vingegaard triumphed for the second time in three days to win stage nine of the Giro d'Italia on Sunday, with the Dane going solo at the end of the climb to the finish, while Afonso Eulalio remains in the overall lead."
"The Visma-Lease a Bike rider tracked race rival Felix Gall (Decathlon) when the Austrian attacked near the end of the 184km stage from Cervia to Corno alle Scale, but Vingegaard powered away in the closing kilometre, with his Visma teammate Davide Piganzoli coming in third."
"Eulalio (Bahrain Victorious) put in another brave ride to limit the damage and crossed the line fifth, 41 seconds behind Vingegaard and maintained his grip on the pink jersey.
