The 2010 Critérium du Dauphiné was the 62nd edition of the Critérium du Dauphiné (formerly Critérium du Dauphiné Libéré) stage race, and the first since it was renamed. It took place from 6–13 June, and was part of both the 2010 UCI ProTour and World Calendar. It began in Evian-les-Bains with an individual time trial, and ended in Sallanches.

The race was won by Slovenia's Janez Brajkovič, riding for Team RadioShack.[1] Second in the general classification was Alberto Contador of Astana, while Tejay van Garderen finished third for Team HTC–Columbia. Contador won the points classification on a tie-break with Brajkovič, Euskaltel–Euskadi's Egoi Martínez won the mountains classification and Euskaltel-Euskadi also won the teams classification.

Teams

As the Dauphiné Libéré was a UCI ProTour event, the 18 ProTour teams are invited automatically, plus an additional 4 non pro tour teams. They were:[2]

Pre-race favourites

The winner of the event for the previous two years, Alejandro Valverde, had been widely tipped to do well in the event, [citation needed] but was banned from all of UCI registered races for 19 months from a few days prior to the event. Two time Tour de France winner Alberto Contador started the race as favourite, but emphasized that his priority was to use the race as preparation for the Tour de France, without particular concern to win it.
