sport">According to website VeloNews, this is stated in a document with health regulations that the organizing ASO has sent to the participating teams. The Tour starts August 29 in Nice.

sport">The Tour de France takes the virus very seriously. All teams must stay in their own ‘bubble’ as much as possible during the three-week cycling race, during which team doctors are given careful instructions to monitor the health of the riders and staff members. The ultimate goal, according to VeloNews, is “to protect the health of riders, team personnel and other people involved in the Tour de France and to ensure that the event can continue.”

sport">It was previously known that all riders will be tested on Covid-19 at least twice before the Tour. In the event that a rider is found positive, a team still has the option to start a healthy replacement until August 29 at 10:00 AM.
