Tour de France 2007 Results
| Tour de France winner Alberto Contador said Friday he has always competed clean, rejecting doping accusations stemming from his alleged links to a Spanish drug investigation.
The Spaniard won this year's Tour de France by 23 seconds over Australia's Cadel Evans after race leader Michael Rasmussen was removed by his team after evidence that he lied about his whereabouts during training to evade drug testing.
Contador will have to look for a new team after Discovery Channel Team announced it would disband after being unable to secure sponsorship for next season. |
