Vincenzo Nibali on stage fourteen of the 2014 Tour de France
Tour de France winner Vincenzo Nibali ended his season in Spain's wet northwest on Sunday racing the World Championship road race. He will push on to compete one more race in his sponsor's country, the Tour of Almaty in Kazakhstan, but officially, he considers 2014 over.
"My season ends here," team Astana's Italian said. "I'll go to Almaty only because my team asked me to do so."
