Alberto Contador – “It's a huge relief”

“This morning I woke up in shape, I had a good night. But today we can say that I suffered. I think Andy has also suffered a lot for the race was very difficult. I had a hard time to settle down into a rhythm. But I wanted to stay completely focused on my position… on the aerodynamics. This was not my best day and I had doubts, but I won. A time trial at the Tour de France, it is never a race like any other.
“I am very excited because it was a victory that was difficult to attain. It had not been easy in 2007 and last year, but it's unbelievable. It's a huge relief.”
