- The 2006 Tour de France was the 93rd Tour de France, taking place from July 1 to July 23, 2006. It was won by Óscar Pereiro following the disqualification of apparent winner Floyd Landis.
The Tour began with a prologue in Strasbourg, on the French-German border, and ended on Sunday July 23 in Paris. The distance of the course (run counterclockwise around France) was 3,657 km (2,272 mi). The race was the third fastest in average speed. Along the way, the cyclists passed through six different countries including France, The Netherlands (a stop at Valkenburg in Stage 3), Belgium (at Huy, Stages 3 and 4), Luxembourg (at Esch-sur-Alzette, Stages 2 and 3), Germany (though not stopping there, Stage 1) and Spain (Pla-de-Beret, Stage 11). The presentation of the course was made by the new director of Le Tour, Christian Prudhomme. For the first time since the 1999 edition, there was no team time trial.
The event, as with some of the Tours of the late 1990s, was marred by doping scandals. Prior to the tour, numerous riders - including the two favourites Jan Ullrich and Ivan Basso - were expelled from the Tour due to their link with the Operación Puerto doping case.
After the Tour, the apparent winner, Floyd Landis, was found to have failed a drug test after stage 17; Landis contested the result and demanded arbitration. On September 20, 2007, Landis was found guilty and suspended retroactive to January 30, 2007 and stripped of the 2006 Tour de France title making Óscar Pereiro the title holder. Landis appealed the decision to the Court of Arbitration for Sport which upheld the ban.
Part One, I'd really like
Incredible that there are parts 2 through like 6 but no 1 😂
Where is the part one?
totally awesome. thank you!
Thank you...
Where is part 1???
Thanks for all the nice uploads. Why have, after the 2005 edition, all interviews etc been removed? I really enjoyed watching the full coverage including interviews, stage previews etc as it seemed liked the tour of 2004 was only yesterday.
Thanks
Thankyou
1:00:45 Here we go for the Turbo Diesel engine. Even after Ullrich is gone.
As it turned out, Oscar Pereiro was also a doper but he was not disqualified.
Probably 90% were on juice at this time. Anyway I enjoyed all of it.
This "mega Landis solo" wasnt human, but nice to watch.
90% sounds a little low. In any case it was an epic tour! Landis' attack in stage 17 deserves to be remembered as the greatest performance in Tour history!
All competitors for the malliut jaune are dopers. Not getting caught is part of the game.
@@treygray2817 Some of them are clearly bigger dopers than others cough* landis *cough
@@blackmamba3060 I don't look at it from the perspective of "bigger dopers"; all riders (and their doctors) take calculated risks in regards to their doping practices. Landis probably didn't push the envelope much further than his competitors. In reality he likely wouldn't have won the '06 Tour on the road if not for Basso and Ulrich being suspended/banned.
Why TF would you delete part 1?
1:00:13 "This looks like a Lance Armstrong". Well yeah, indeed!
One of the most obvious dopers ever.
Le Tour de Dope.
