"It would be nice to end my career there, I've always enjoyed the Tour de Italy." Porter said.

In 2010, Porter won the honor of best young driver in the Tour de La Fide, and once put on a pink shirt, and finally finished seventh in the overall result of the Tour de Italy that year. In the decade since, Porter's performance has been stable, winning more than 30 races, and at last year's Tour de France, Porter finished third overall.
