As an Olympic champion, it’s an honour for me to become a Champion for Peace. My career as a professional cyclist has enabled me to adapt to the values of my host homes since 1997- France and Monaco. As Manager of the Astana Team and as a Peace and Sport Champion for Peace, I want to highlight the essential values of human respect, solidarity, sport and peace n my team as well as n all the countries that I visit.
Olympic silver medallist in the year 2000, Alexandr Vinokourov finished his exceptional career by winning the Olympic Gold in London 2012. Now Manager of the Astana team, he works to develop cycling in his country, where he is an iconic figure.
