| "The last 500 meters - Vincenzo Nibali smiles - they never ended! I wanted to honor the Tour and finally I did it today. Yesterday I tried and today it was the right one. The climb was endless and when I saw that the group accelerated I tried it myself. I’m very happy!" | share this photo |

| Winner's post-race press conference with Vincenzo NIBALI (ITA/BAHRAIN - MERIDA): "In the last week, I found the right sensations. It wasn't easy to manage the race but I felt I had a good leg. This morning at the team meeting we decided to get into the break and so I left together with Dylan Teuns. The break was close-knit even though the main peloton never gave us great advantage" | share this photo |

| "I think this was a good day, an amazing day; to defend the jersey with Egan, and the way we fought through it, both of us. It feels like it's been one thing after another with me, but it was great that Egan took the jersey yesterday' "I was a bit frustrated at the end [of stage 20]. I wanted to chase [Vincenzo] Nibali but at the same time [Steven] Kruijswijk was so close to me [on GC]. If we brought Nibali back and Kruijswijk won the stage and put three seconds into me, I would have lost second spot on the GC. As it turns out, I was good and he wasn't quite so good, but hindsight's a wonderful thing, isn't it?" "To get first and second, doesn't get any better. The fact that Egan is one step above me is the best person to be riding in front of me. It's been a crazy year for me, but I can be happy and proud that I've given it everything I can to be in the best shape here. I think we rode really well as a team, the whole team from day one has been amazing. We've taken a lot of flack as always but we proved that we are a real strong unit, and we know how to ride well and perform in this race. It was a pleasure to be a part of." | share this photo |
