Vincenzo Nibali (Astana) secured victory at the 99th Giro d'Italia after finishing safely on the final stage of the race into Turin.
Giacomo Nizzolo (Trek-Segafredo) thought he had finally secured his first Grand Tour stage win after near 30 top-10 placings, but was relegated due to an irregular sprint with the win awarded to second place Nikia Arndt (Giant-Alpecin). Nizzolo still secured the red points jersey for a second year in a row.
