Not even a whisper of Contador and clenbuterol during the many hours of the tour I watched. Only glowing praise of him. Presumed to be innocent because the Spanish cycling authorities totally cleared him when he said, without any proof, he must've eaten some infected meat before testing positive twice during last year's Tour. The appeal on his case was delayed until after the Tour, in August. He has a colourful history from a drugs perspective.
And earlier, when he had ensured his win in the 2009 Tour he was asked:
"Can you assure us that you've never taken any banned performance-enhancing products, nor used any banned methods, and can you take this opportunity to make a strong statement for clean cycling?"
Contador replied: "I'm available 365 days a year, which is something I accept with good grace for the sport I love. I will continue to have this attitude."
A tad different to Brett Stewart, where the Aussie media and NRL treated him as guilty based on nothing of real substance or real credibility.
