Anybody else think that Contador TT performance was a bit too good..?
He did change his training plan this year

That article also mentions he's been working on his tt position.

I never know what to believe any more!
He used to be good at TTs - he beat Cancellara in the TdF a few years pre-steak. And this ITT had lumps which suited him more than Martin but no, I don't trust him.

I don't think there's anything more supicious about Contador now than anyone else at the top. He's always been a fantastic rider and great on TTs, especially when there are lumps. I don't like him, and he's a proven cheat, but he's still a great rider.
The name escaped my brain the other day but eventually came back. Stephen De Jongh joined Tinkoff-Saxo recently and also contributed to Contador's training plan.
