Jonas Vingegaard is the 72nd winner of the Giro d'Italia, the 30th foreign rider to write his name in the roll of honour and the first Danish cyclist to conquer the Giro Rosa. Most importantly, he is the 8th cyclist in history to win at least once all three Grand Tours. With his victories at the 2022 and 2023 Tour de France and the 2025 Vuelta a España, he has reached 4 triumphs and occupies 13th place in the all-time ranking, tied with Rominger, Heras and Nibali.

The Danish champion has participated in 9 Grand Tours and on 8 occasions he has finished on the podium, with 4 victories. During the three weeks of the Giro Rosa, he also claimed 5 stage wins, bringing his World Tour seasonal victories to 12 and his days in the leader's jersey across the three Grand Tours to 50 in his career: 8 at the Giro, 27 at the Tour, 15 at the Vuelta.

Denmark is the 18th nation to win the Giro d'Italia, the 8th to achieve this feat for the first time since 2012. Austria, meanwhile, thanks to Gall's 2nd place finish, is the 24th nation to reach the podium at least once. Thirteen cyclists claimed stage victories in this edition of the Giro Rosa, representing 9 nations.

Italian cycling achieved 4 stage wins (with Ballerini, Ganna, Bettiol and Milan), 16 stage podiums and the blue jersey for Ciccone, but has not secured a top-three finish in the overall classification since 2021 (2nd place Caruso) and has not celebrated a Giro Rosa victory since 2016 (the year of Nibali's second win).
