Dominance in Tour Victories

Re:

A lot of great performances have been mentioned this thread but there's another that stands out for me and that's Contador in 2009. The time gaps may not have been as big as 1997 or 2014 but the demolition job he did on that parcours was spectacular, and he even soft pedalled Ventoux.

WOW, it's taken nearly 2 pages before his name cropped up.

My boy Ullrich, the guy who, when Armstrong arrived, turned brain dead and wasted his talent.

Nah, he was 15kg overweight in March 1998 way before Armstrong was doing anything at the Tour
