Alberto Contador Velasco (born 6 December 1982) is a Spanish former professional cyclist. He is one of the most successful riders of his era, winning the Tour de France twice (2007, 2009), the Giro d’Italia (2008, 2015), and the Vuelta a España three times (2008, 2012, 2014). He is one of only eight riders to have won all three Grand Tours of cycling, and one of only two riders to have won all three more than once. He has also won the Vélo d’Or a record 4 times. Contador was known as an attacking rider who excelled as a climber, and on his best days was also an excellent time-trialist. He raced for 5 teams during his career: ONCE (2003-2006), Discovery Channel (2007), Astana (2008-2010), Saxo Bank (2011-2016), Trek (2017).

Season 2010. In February, Contador won his first race of the season, the Volta ao Algarve, by winning its queen stage and finishing second in the final time trial. In March, Contador won his second Paris–Nice, finishing ahead of other pre-race favourites Alejandro Valverde and Luis León Sánchez. Contador also competed in and concluded the Critérium International with a second place in the final time trial, only 2 seconds behind stage winner David Millar, while Pierrick Fédrigo successfully defended the yellow jersey. Contador was a favourite coming into the Tour de France, along with Team Saxo Bank’s Andy Schleck. On Stage 15 Schleck was race leader and pressing the pace over the day’s final climb of Port de Bales when he threw his chain. Contador and Denis Menchov immediately moved to the front and attacked, pressing the advantage over the crest of the climb and all the way to the finish. They were aided by Samuel Sánchez and two others making a group of five riders. Schleck chased hard, but had no other riders to help bridge the gap. By stage’s end, he had lost the yellow jersey and 39 seconds to spaniard. Contador went on to win the Tour de France for the third time with an advantage of 39 seconds over Andy Schleck, the exact amount of time he had taken from Schleck on Stage 15 because of mechanical.
