I posted this link 'A Tale of solitude'  (about the fact there was no team car to take Contador to the start of the Annecy time trial)  http://www.diariosur.es/20090727/deportes/ciclismo/fiesta-privada-contador-20090727.html in our thread here

 Now, from El Pais, comes more details of Contador v Armstrong

http://www.elpais.com/articulo/deportes/uomo/solo/comando/elpepidep/20090727elpepidep_2/Tes

that I judge deserves a separate thread

As the article is quite long and google-translate has its limitations, ElizaB at

has made it available in english.
