Tour de France 2023 : the real numbers of dopingDeparture to the land of Miguel Indurain |
![]() |
A Jonas Vingegaard – Tadej Pogacar duel is announced. The two riders have smashed everything since the start of the year and seem three legs above the other contenders for the yellow jersey.
On the starting line, only five runners (3%) have already been pinned in our doping directory. This is one more than in 2022.
To complete these statistics, we present for the third time our Confidence Index (ICCD). It will shed new light on the teams of this Tour to, perhaps, know who it is possible to trust.
This Tour did not disappoint, if we dare not say. Jonas Vingegaard and Tadej Pogacar have effectively "destroyed" their opponents. After which Vingegaard also smashed his Slovenian opponent.
"Who can I trust?". This is the question that everyone asks themselves every year at the start of a grand Tour. To provide some answers, since 2021 we have been publishing our ICCD : Cyclisme-Dopage.com Confidence Index.
We use this ICCD to attach colored symbols to the names of teams and riders in the lists below.
To understand them, click here.
The table below establishes, team by team, the count of the riders who have been or will be subsequently "pinned" in doping cases.
