1997
1. Jan Ullrich (G), Telekom
2. Richard Virenque (F), Festina
3. Marco Pantani (I), Mercatone Uno

So in 1997 BiG Jan won the Tour de France ahead of 2 of the most
notorious dopers of late in the sport of cycling. This begs the
question of; what was Jan on??

Lance had testicular cancer.

It did spread to his lungs and brain, but it wasn't lung cancer.

Jan paid his dues and did the saddle time. Richard was never a contender
when a full field was around and Pantani was only a winner when the real
contenders were not there to contend. Climbers they both are/were, overall
winners they are not and were not.
Jan has been right there all the time. He is one of the greats in cycling
today and has really done nothing that should bring negative reactions.

Dumbass,
Ecstasy is achieved though spiritual purity.
 
joking about recreational drugs aside, Ullrich has ridden consistently
across many years = probably no performance enhancing drug use.
