Alberto Contador arrived in Ajaccio this afternoon, ready to take the start in the Critérium International this weekend. This will be the first time the event has ever been staged on the island of Corsica. The race has a rather unusual format made up of a Saturday stage with summit finish, with a double-header on Sunday morning consisting of a road stage over flat terrain followed by a short 7-kilometer time trial.

 .

Riding with Alberto Contador will be Alexander Vinokourov, Dimitri Fofonov, Maxim Gourov, Roman Kireyev, Dani Navarro, Benjamín Noval and Bolat Raimbekov, under the direction of Guido Bontempi. Alberto has scheduled a press conference for 3:30 in the afternoon tomorrow, Friday, March 28, at the Hotel Goelan, situated at La Marine in Porto Vecchio.
