From the article:
-------------------------------------
A report by the French Senate published today has laid bare the extent of doping in the 1998 Tour de France, with race winner Marco Pantani among those revealed to have tested positive for EPO when samples were analysed six years later.
It has also resulted in two riders, Stuart O’Grady and Jacky Durand, stepping forward to confess to doping, as well as provoking differing reactions from cycling’s world governing body, the UCI, and the man who is aiming to become its president, Brian Cookson.
The Senate’s report listed 18 riders whose samples from the 1998 race were found to have tested positive.
Those are Manuel Beltran, Jeroen Blijlevens, Mario Cipollini, Laurent Desbiens, Jacky Durand, Bo Hamburger, Jens Heppner, Laurent Jalabert, Kevin Livingston, Eddy Mazzoleni, Nicola Minali, Abraham Olano, Marco Pantani, Fabio Sacchi, Marcos Serrano, Andrea Tafi, Jan Ullrich and Erik Zabel.
It also listed 12 riders whose retested samples were described as “suspicious”: Stephane Barthe, Ermanno Brignoli, Giuseppe Calcaterra, Pascal Chanteur, Bobby Julich, Eddy Mazzoleni, Roland Meier, Axel Merckx, Frederic Moncassin, Stuart O'Grady, Alain Turicchia, and Stefano Zanini.
