(Reuters) -Australian Jay Vine (UAE Team Emirates-XRG) went for broke 5 km from the summit finish to win stage 10 of the Vuelta a Espana on Tuesday, repeating his stage six victory, while race favourite Jonas Vingegaard reclaimed the leader's red jersey.

Vine caught and overtook Spain's Pablo Castrillo (Movistar) with 5 km left on the climb to the end of the 175.3 km ride from Parque de la Naturaleza Sendaviva to El Ferial Larra Belagua.

Castrillo held on to take second spot, 35 seconds behind Vine, with the Spaniard's compatriot and teammate Javier Romo finishing third.

Vingegaard (Visma-Lease a Bike) had lost the red jersey to Norway's Torstein Traeen (Bahrain Victorious) after stage six, but after beginning Tuesday's stage 37 seconds off the lead, he gapped Traeen on the final climb to move 26 seconds ahead in the general classification.
