Jan Ullrich: The Best There Never Was is the first biography of Jan Ullrich, perhaps the most naturally talented cyclist of his generation and one of the most controversial Tour de France champions.
In 1997, Jan Ullrich announced his presence to the world by defeating his opponents in the Tour de France and becoming the first German winner. Everyone agreed: Jan Ullrich would dominate the future of cycling. However, he never truly managed to achieve it.
This is a gripping account of how immense expectations, mental and physical fragility, the effects of a complex childhood, and a morally compromised sport can affect a person's destiny. Distinguished journalist Daniel Friebe takes us from the legacy of East Germany's doping program to the pinnacle of professional cycling and asks: what price are you willing to pay for immortality?
