En el reverso del documento 31 se localizan unas anotaciones manuscritas con el título “INDIVIDUALIZACIÓN” en el que se identifican a distintos corredores del equipo LIBERTY-SEGUROS WÜRTH por sus iniciales: R. H. (Roberto HERAS), M. S. (Marcos SERRANO), J. B. (Joseba BELOKI), I. G. (Igor GONZÁLEZ), A. V. (Ángel VICIOSO), J. J. (Jorg JAKSCHE), A. D. (Alan DAVIS), L. (sin identificar), A. C. (Alberto CONTADOR) .
Krebs cycle said:Interestingly, Contador was asked to provide a DNA sample in order to definitively prove his innocence at the time of the operacion puerto scandal, but he refused.
Allan Davis on the other hand, actually requested to have a DNA sample taken and cross checked against the blood bags held as evidence.
Izoard said:I had heard the same. You know, I have a very uneasy feeling about Contador. He is widely called the best climber in the world (check out the VAM he set - he broke Bjarne's old record from 1996), he is very quick in the TT (even the flat ones), he can accelerate like no one's business, he can recover with the best, he can win grand tours without peaking or even when on vacation. Hopefully I don't get too many nasty replies, as it is not like I "hate" the guy, he just gives me the same feeling I had when I saw Bjarne attack in '96, or Rasmusen, or Pantani/Heras in a TT, or Ricco from last year ...
titotito said:"who cares? Let them race"
At the risk of beating a dead horse, I hate this attitude. The best rider of this generation may be the guy in 26th place at the tour that has chosen to ride clean.
PACONi said:Yep. If it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck, waddles like a duck, chances are its a duck.
patswana said:Also worth looking at his two DSs.
Manolo Saiz - now disgraced, systematic doping at his teams.
Johan Bruyneel - Spent most of his cycling career under Manolo Siaz at ONCE.
As has been said by others, if something appears too good to be true, it probably is.

Didn't we use to do that as kids playing cops and robbers, cowboys and indians?? Now if he pulled out a real pistol even a good looking fake from his back pocket and did it, now that would be cool.
indurain666 said:I don't think he is clean. But heck, at this level who is really clean anyway? AC is linked to Fuentes, LA to Ferrari..Kloden to Fuentes...who cares? Let them race.
this has been discussed time after time...![]()
