This photo was probably from the start, race winner, Dario CATALDO (ITA/ASTANA) and what looks like his sister and his dogs?		share this photo
Your Stage 15 winner, Dario CATALDO (ITA/ASTANA): On the Civiglio climb I knew the gap and I knew how much we could lose at the top. I was more worried at the foot of the final descent because we had 30 seconds and Mattia wouldn't work with me any longer. In the final 1.5km, I managed to catch my breath a bit, save some energy, then I knew I could do a good sprint. I knew my capabilities and those of my rival. I rode from the front. I opened full gas and gave it everything.”		share this photo
Your race leader, Richard CARAPAZ (ECU/MOVISTAR) improved his lead over on Primož ROGLIČ (SLO/JUMBO - VISMA) to 47s: “[About Primoz Roglic’s mechanical], that’s cycling. One day it happens to a rider, the other day it happens to another one. That’s part of the passion for this sport. I had good legs yesterday. I wasn’t at the front by coincidence. In the last week, my rivals still have many kilometres to recover their time. But I hope to be declared the champion of the Giro d’Italia.”		share this photo
