Tour de Hongrie is in progress, and Polartec-Kometa is racing here, and Alberto Contador is visiting the race!
He's going to give the start signal tomorrow, and is already in Hungary, which is good, because he'd just given an interview on the national TV.
There were pretty usual questions about his retirement and how happy he is for Moschetti's win (very), and his foundation (they were good questions, but he said nothing new), but there were interesting ones too.
They asked him if his team is going to show the same attacking style as him. His answer was a little evasive, like he was flustered by being singled out and praised so, but he said he hopes to encourage it.
There was a strange question about getting to the top with his team, and he was again evasive, like he was too modest and didn't want to talk about big things like going pro, even though that was what they wanted to hear.
He's going to visit a hungarian continental team to give some advice (Pannon cycling team is also sponsored by Kometa) and also to learn new things. (haha, very nice of him to say so.) Both him and Basso hinted at looking around for hungarian talents, which I personally find pretty exciting. I know it might just be PR, but here in Hungary, it's a big thing that he and Basso came here for the Tour de Hongrie, and they plan to come back (Kometa has huge interests in Hungary). Apparently he's having projects with Kometa.
He was speaking Spanish and it was translated to Hungarian, so the translation might be off at some places, but it seemed mostly OK to me.
All in all, I really liked the interview, he seems to be happy and confident.
