Cycling - Contador to take stand in Puerto doping case

The Spanish star, who has won all three Grands Tours, is only cited as a witness in the case, but he had been expected to give testimony by a video link, rather than appearing before court.

The court case began on January 28 in Madrid.

In 2012 Contador completed a two-year ban for testing positive for clenbuterol, and won the Vuelta a Espana on his comeback.
