Kelderman close to victory again in third stage of Tour de Pologne, Vingegaard retains leader's jersey

Wilco Kelderman finished third in the third stage of the Tour de Pologne. This is the second time the Dutch rider has finished on the podium in this WorldTour race, following his second-place finish in the opening stage. Vingegaard finished ninth and retained his leader's jersey.

Midway through the stage, Mick van Dijke joined the breakaway group. After tackling several climbs, the group of ten was eventually caught by a reduced peloton in the final twenty kilometers.

Van Dijke dug deep as he led a group that included both Kelderman and Vingegaard. As they approached the steep and narrow final kilometer, the Team Visma | Lease a Bike duo was well-positioned. Kelderman fought for the stage win at the front but once again had to concede to Thibau Nys in this Tour de Pologne.

"With Wilco’s third place and maintaining our lead, we had a good day"

Jonas Vingegaard

"I’m satisfied with the fact that I retained the leader’s jersey on this hot day. I managed better than the last time I wore the jersey in this race," Vingegaard said, referring to the 2019 edition, when the Dane lost the jersey after just one day. "With Wilco’s third place and maintaining our lead, we had a good day as a team. The start of tomorrow's stage won’t be easy, but I think it will be a day for the sprinters. Nonetheless, we have to stay alert. Hopefully, I can hold on to the lead in the coming days."
