Tour de France Champion Tadej Pogacar Debunks Mechanical Doping Rumors in Pre-Season Press Conference

“It is not possible to hide an engine in the bike without it being discovered.” Tadej Pogacar said today during a pre-season press conference in southern Spain.

“Since consumer electric bikes have become fashionable, we have seen that it is not so easy to put a motor in a bike. I think we would see it. I don’t think it is possible to do it hide”,

“There were rumors five, ten years ago. But I don’t even remember the last time I heard about it. I think we can be calm about that today,” added the two-time Tour winner.

Numerous suspicions have emerged over the past ten years but no case of “mechanical doping” has ever been blacklisted by the UCI.

During the last Tour de France, the International Cycling Union (UCI) carried out 997 checks on all 21 stages, all of which came back negative.
