Contador Back



Dude had the Clenbuterol charges dropped.

Cliffnotes:
"According to a number of Spanish newspapers, the competitions committee decided to rethink its verdict on Friday last week based on article 296 of the UCI’s regulations, which says that an athlete can be exonerated if they prove that they had inadvertently ingested a banned product through no fault or negligence on their part."

Good look for the Spanish cycling competitions committee. They man'd up after they couldn't prove that the ingested drug had any real impact on Contador's cycling ability, even when Contador's lawyer team couldn't find the piece of alleged meat. This is good news for cycling. With Contador back, everyone's going to turn up the competition. 2011 pro tour season just got more exciting. Schleck bros about to lay the hurt (DA4LIFE).
