It is the first rider to get beat Lance Armstrong, who 37 years and 10 months is the second oldest rider on the podium in Paris. Alongside these two riders of Astana will be Andy Schleck, the Saxobank. Alberto Contador has taken 4 minutes and 11 seconds to the second corridor.

Thus, Contador keeps Spanish triumphs in the gala round, after he achieved in 2007. In 2006 was won by Oscar Pereiro and in 2008 for Carlos Sastre, who has gone from a fairly low profile in this Tour 2009 (post 17). Mikel Astarloza Spanish is second, at number 11.

This win is much nicer to Alberto Contador as the former was stained positive for Rasmussen, who was then dominating the race. And then Alberto Contador in the Tour had to win the gallons of Astana, which was much more in favor of Lance Armstrong was the favorite. In fact, the first two weeks was marked by internal struggles, first by a court in which Armstrong was favored, then a counter attack. The statements ranged from one place to another until Alberto won the stage 15 in the stage 17 launched an attack that hurt Andreas Kloeden and put a lot more land than by rivals and the time trial stage 18, when he won in front of the greatest specialist Fabian Cancellara. Unrivaled. Alberto Contador is the strongest rider of the times.
