  "account": "Norwegian cyclist Andreas Leknessund secured a memorable mountain victory on stage seven of the Vuelta a España, riding solo to the summit and completing the win with his teammate Tobias Halland Johannessen. The duo wore black armbands to honor Norway's late King Harald. Leknessund credited Johannessen, stating, \"Tobias came up, and when he was there it gave me confidence that today we could win. I believed he was the best climber in the group, and he maybe was.\" The Norwegian duo, along with Wout van Aert, formed a breakaway that eventually cleared the rest of the field, including GC challengers Tadej Pogačar and Felix Gall. Pogačar finished the stage in 19th place, 4:23 behind the breakaway group.",
