| “It's been a couple of years and grand tours I've done for the general classification but my body wasn't responding earlier in the Giro. I did my best to keep the morale. This is my first grand tour victory. It's an incredible feeling, especially in an area like this I'm so familiar with, having done many training camps here. I knew all the roads. I was not confident at all to beat Mikel Landa. He's a very good sprinter.” | share this photo |

| Tom Dumoulin post-stage 18 said: “Nibali and Quintana were only focusing on me and trying to make me lose instead of trying to win. In the end, they lost some significant time to the other competitors. Riding like this, I hope they'll lose their podium spot. If this happens in Milan it would be very nice and I would be very happy. It would have been a dream scenario if Thibaut Pinot didn't take a minute on me. In the last climb I was feeling strong. So I decided to show them that I'm also awake.” | share this photo |
