Giro d'Italia: Dumoulin and Nibali kiss and make up after war of words

Tom Dumoulin and Vincenzo Nibali have shaken hands and made up after their spat during and after Thursday’s Giro d'Italia stage in the Dolomites, with the Dutchman apologizing to the Italian for saying he would be happy to see him and Nairo Quintana lose their spots on the podium because they had formed a pact against him and had refused to work in the finale of the stage.
