Vingegaard: "It’s very special to have done it, even more than what I could have dreamt of. It’s hard for me to realise that I’ve won all three Grand Tours. When I see all the other seven names, there are some of the biggest guys in cycling, I don’t think of myself in that way. I’ve come to tears when I got to share this moment with my family. They’re always there for me. They mean absolutely everything to me. They support me at 100% in everything I do. It was really emotional to finish it off and win all three Grand Tours. The King of Denmark called me today after the stage to congratulate me. It was a big honour for me to speak with him. It was a very big experience for me. I’ve met him a few times but it doesn’t make today’s experience less big. I’ll stay in Rome for a few days with my family to relax and enjoy the nice food, then I’ll start working for the Tour de France. I’ve believed in this project to do Giro-Tour since November and now I feel that my body can go for the next Grand Tours. I’m not on my knees."

Overall, the climbing performances of Jonas Vingegaard are the highest ever recorded in Giro d'Italia, superior to 1998-1999 Pantani, 2006 Basso and 2024 Pogacar. 📈 But it's important to mention that all his attacks happened on the last climb of the day and the route was easier than in the past.
