Jumbo-Visma and Pogacar can breathe a sigh of relief: all corona tests in Tour negative cycling

After the arrival of the ninth stage, rapid antigen tests were taken by the entire peloton in a tent near the riders’ buses. They have not revealed corona infections in any cycling team, according to Tour organizer ASO.

So also Alpecin-Deceuninck by Mathieu van der Poel, Quick-Step (Fabio Jakobsen) and Intermarché (Taco van der Hoorn) have no corona cases.

Last week, Norwegian Vegard Stake Laengen, Pogacar’s servant, had to give up because of corona.

The entire peloton is also subjected to a PCR test during the rest day.
