A Slovenian rider clinched his third consecutive victory in the Vuelta a España on Sunday, sealing the win after a decisive solo attack on the final mountain stage. The triumph, achieved by Primož Roglič of Team Jumbo‑Visma, gave him a total time advantage of 2 minutes 18 seconds over his nearest rival and marked his third straight Grand Tour title.
Roglič’s achievement places him level with four other cyclists—Roberto Heras, Tony Rominger, Bernard Hinault and Miguel Induráin—who have each won three consecutive editions of a Grand Tour. The win underscores his dominance in stage racing and adds him to an elite all‑time list, while his team celebrated the milestone as a testament to consistent performance across three demanding seasons.
