Synopsis
Alberto Contador was one of the greatest riders of his generation; one of only seven riders to have won all three Grand Tours - the Giro d'Italia, Vuelta España, and the Tour de France. His signature strength was his explosive power on the climbs; but his career was built on more than just his physical ability. Contador’s success came from his mental strength. Over his 15 year career at the top, he suffered with a near-fatal brain condition, battled with bitter rivals like Andy Schleck, Chris Froome and Lance Armstrong while also being embroiled in scandal and controversy. Bernie Eisel meets Alberto in his home town of Pinto, Spain; seeing his life after retirement, and spending time getting to know the truth behind the headlines, to learn more about this true cycling legend.
