Levi Leipheimer, Alberto Contador and fellow rival of this maximum in the time trial at the Port of Navacerrada, was the stage winner with a time of 33.06 minutes, enough to steal the gold jersey for best rider of the moment. Alberto Contador gave only 31 seconds, the same as Alejandro Valverde, and in the absence of walk in Madrid, Alberto leads Levi Leipheimer by 46 seconds.

If he had chosen the style of the Tour de France and had removed the subsidies, would also leader Alberto Contador, but for much less, if any seconds, data that can be used by detractors to criticize the Pinto. And Levi Leipheimer has had to endure being gregarious Alberto Contador. It would have been a good battle between two great runners have run both on different computers. But what we are sure of is that Alberto Contador and is the fifth rider that crowns the three Grand Tours, and he is the youngest of the five. Gimondi, Hinault, Merckx and Anquetil ... and Alberto Contador. The third place overall is for Carlos Sastre, who still had time to take a few seconds to Ezequiel Mosquera. Alejandro Valverde, greatest in the time trial, will occupy the fifth place overall.

Full Spain and his big year in cycling ... the absence of the World test. Giro, Tour, Tour and Olympic Games were to fall to the Spanish, living a real dream.
