Multiple winners[change | change source]

The following riders have won the Tour de France on 2 or more occasions. Since the retirement of twice winner Alberto Contador in 2017, the only active rider on the list as of that year is Chris Froome, currently with 4 wins. Contador had originally won three Tours, but was stripped of one following an anti-doping violation[D].

Lance Armstrong was removed from the head of the list after having all seven of his Tour victories stripped when he was found guilty of repeated doping offences. Had his tainted Tour victories been reallocated (as were the victories of Floyd Landis and Contador) to the second placed rider in each race, Jan Ullrich would have joined the list with 4 Tour wins. However, the race organisers ASO have decided not to reallocate the titles won in those years, in recognition of the historic doping problem in the sport at that time - Ullrich himself having been banned for a doping violation. Ullrich, therefore, has a single Tour victory to his name.

SEE: http://www.uci.ch With respect to Lance Armstrong and the implications of the USADA sanctions which it endorsed on Monday 22 October 2012, the Management Committee of the UCI decided not to award victories to any other rider or upgrade other placings in any of the affected events 1999-2005.

Notes[change | change source]

  1. ↑ Bjarne Riis has admitted to the use of doping during the 1996 Tour de France. The organisers of the Tour de France have stated they no longer consider him to be the winner, although UCI have refused to change the official status due to the amount of time passed since his win [1]
  2. ↑ Floyd Landis' win in 2006 was disputed as he tested positive for elevated levels of testosterone. He was the subject of an arbitration hearing before the USADA and a guilty verdict was reached on 20 September 2007. The UCI immediately stripped Landis of his title .
  3. ↑ Alberto Contador was the winner at the podium ceremony in Paris on the last day of the 2010 Tour de France but the race was under review by the Court of Arbitration for Sport. Contador tested positive for performance-enhancing drugs during the race. The title was reassigned to second place finisher Andy Schleck. See "Race winners since 1903". Tour de France.
