Contador wary of Wiggins
Related Articles
21 January 2009
Wiggins is currently third in the general classification, one minute and 46 seconds behind the Spaniard, but with an individual time trial still to come, Contador knows he cannot relax with the Londoner around.
"I notice Bradley Wiggins did sensationally in the climb up to Verbier and he is going to have to be taken into consideration," Contador, who finished 66 seconds ahead of the Briton in Sunday's stage, told L'Equipe.
"I will have to try to put as much distance as possible from him during the next mountain stages, because he is a really strong contender when it comes to the time-trials."
There are two more stages in the Alps before Thursday's individual time trial in Annecy.
