Your Stage 17 winner, Nans PETERS (FRA/AG2R LA MONDIALE): “I never won a pro race before, not even a category 1 race, so to win in the WorldTour and at the Giro, it’s enormous. It’s a relief after so many escapes I've been making for more than a year. I’m not fast enough in the sprints and I’m not one of the best climbers, so breaking away is my only way to win. I caught the opportunity with 16km to go. I tried and it worked, it’s fantastic.”		share this photo
The race leader Richard CARAPAZ (ECU/MOVISTAR) extended his leaded by 7s: “I saw Miguel Angel Lopez attacking and I took his wheel to profit from his action. We took a small advantage. Those seven seconds help me for the closing time trial in Verona. My lead now is significant but, by Sunday, if I can increase it, it would be even more comfortable. It would be nice to be two riders from Movistar, Mikel Landa and I, on the final podium.”		share this photo
