Instead, the two top cyclists of the moment spent some time chatting as they pedaled along side by side.Quintana finished the 71st edition of the race 1 minute, 23 seconds in front of second-placed Froome.Quintana completed the grueling three-week course that covered 3,315.5 kilometers (2,060 miles) in 83 hours, 31 minutes, 28 seconds.Esteban Chaves finished in third place and more than four minutes off the pace.

He then exchanged embraces with his teammates before shaking hands with Froome.I woke up this morning feeling like the winner, but I couldnt raise my arms in celebration until I crossed the finish line, Quintana said. This is probably the most important (win) for me, considering the scenario and who I was racing against. Froome is a great rival.Magnus Cort Nielsen of Denmark won the flat 105-kilometer (65-mile) ride starting in Las Rozas before making loops through Madrids center in 2 hours, 48 minutes, 52 seconds. It was his second stage win of this race.At age 26, Quintana has established himself as one of the premier cyclists in the world and the top rival to three-time Tour de France champion Froome.Quintana has twice finished runner-up to Froome at the Tour, most recently in July when he couldnt mount a serious challenge to Froome and his dominant Sky team.Two months later, Quintana finally got the better of the British cyclist after pulling away to win the Vueltas mountainous 10th stage finishing at Lagos de Covadonga.He increased his lead to more than 3 + minutes by using an early breakaway on the 14th stage, finishing at the Aramon Formigal summit.

Team Movistar was great this Vuelta ... they really rode well and deserve the victory, Froome said. Of course I was here to fight for the victory, but after the season I have had, the Tour, the Olympic games, the Vuelta, this has been the best season for me.Quintana was leading the 2014 Vuelta when he was forced to withdraw with a broken shoulder after falls on consecutive days.I have tried to win the Vuelta so many times and I finally did so today, he said.The large crowd that turned out to celebrate his victory waved Colombian flags.

Prosecutors say Hayes provoked a confrontation by ramming his SUV into one driven by Smith -- after Smith had earlier bumped the rear of Hayes vehicle.The defense has argued that Smith was the aggressor and that Hayes fired in self-defense after Smith went to his own car to get his gun.Assistant District Attorney David Pipes, arguing for Cannizzaro, said Fuller failed to present any evidence that warrants the removal.
