CULOZ (FRANCE) - Jarlinson Pantano said his stage 15 victory at the Tour de France showed the world that Nairo Quintana is not the only talented Colombian cyclist. Pantano was third in 2010, when Quintana won, and since then two other Colombians have also won the race: Esteban Chaves in 2011 and Miguel Angel Lopez in 2014. Quintana won the Tour of Italy in 2014 and was runner up on the Tour de France last year and in 2013. "I've always been good -- I was third at the Tour de l'Avenir that Quintana won." "Quintana is not the only Colombian climber in the peloton, there are several of us," said Jarlinson, who rides for Swiss team Iam.
