The following year, riding for Astana, he cemented his place among cycling’s greatest by winning both the Giro d’Italia and the Vuelta a España.
In 2013, he and his brother Fran founded the Alberto Contador Foundation, aimed at promoting cycling and raising awareness about stroke, a condition that affected him.
