MADRID (Reuters) - Esteban Chaves recaptured the lead from Dutchman Tom Dumoulin at the Tour of Spain when he surged clear to win Thursday's sixth stage, a second victory of the race for the Colombian that suggested he may be a genuine contender.
Orica rider Chaves, who surrendered first place to Dumoulin (Giant) on Wednesday, attacked around two kilometres before the steep finish into Sierra de Cazorla and despite the searing heat had enough in the tank to hold off Daniel Martin (Cannondale) and Dumoulin, who crossed the line together five seconds behind.
