MADRID (AFP) — The winner of the 2007 Tour de France, Spain's Alberto Contador, on Thursday criticised the forced exit of Danish cyclist Michael Rasmussen which paved the way for his victory.
"I don't know what is really behind it but I know that what should not be possible is to be told in the middle of the race that you can't participate when there was no problem at the beginning," he told private radio Cadena Ser.
"I would have liked to have won in another way," he added.
Rasmussen was kicked off the Tour by his Rabobank team while leading with four days left for allegedly lying about his whereabouts before the race to evade drug testers.
