2011 Giro D'Italia Photos
Stage 15, May 22
Photos from Stage 15: May 22, Conegliano - Gardeccia/Val di Fassa, 229 km. Hilltop finish
Stefano Garzelli started the final climb in the lead
But Mikel Nieve Ituralde passed him and stayed away for the stage win
Michele Scarponi had a terrific day, finishing just 6 seconds behind Contador.
Vincenzo Nivbali suffered in the hills, using his descending skills to stay in contact until the final climb.
José Rujano finished 6th, about a minute ahead of Nibali.
Alberto Contador now has a lead of 4min 20sec
I don't think the stage end could come soon enough for Joaquin Rodriguez and Vincenzo Nibali.
That's two stages in a row for Euskaltel
