BLOCKHAUS, Italy \u2014 Jonas Vingegaard surged away from the peloton to win on the Blockhaus peak in the seventh stage of the Giro d\u2019Italia and cut into Afonso Eul\u00e1lio\u2019s overall lead on Friday.<\/p>

Vingegaard pushed on alone on the final stretch of the mountain to claim his first career Giro stage win by 13 seconds from Felix Gall. No other rider finished within a minute. The 2022 Giro winner Jai Hindley was third fastest, 1 minute, 2 seconds off Vingegaard.<\/p>\n

The at times wet and windy stage lasted over six hours and was the toughest test yet for the general classification contenders.<\/p>\n

The Giro\u2019s longest stage at 245 kilometers (152 miles) took the peloton from the coastal city of Formia high into the Apennine mountains.<\/p>

Eul\u00e1lio took the pink jersey<\/a> on Wednesday but struggled on the Blockhaus and lost contact with the leaders with just under six kilometers (four miles) to go. He finished nearly three minutes down on Vingegaard.<\/p>\n

The 109th men\u2019s Giro ends on May 31 in Rome.<\/p>\n

The women\u2019s Giro runs from May 30-June 7 with Italian rider Elisa Longo Borghini as the defending champion.<\/p>
