Paris judge approves doping tests for Vingegaard and Pogacar
Unexpected nocturnal doping tests were conducted on Tour de France leaders Tadej Pogacar and Jonas Vingegaard before stage 15, with the tests authorized by a Paris judge. Vingegaard was tested at 2 a.m. and Pogacar at 5 a.m., outside the standard testing hours, amid criticism from riders and team staff who saw the timing as disruptive. The tests, part of efforts to combat doping practices like micro-dosing, were approved following a petition by the International Testing Agency, but their impact on rider performance and recovery has been questioned. The results of these tests have not yet been publicly disclosed.
