Since then, the process is pending. But he is allowed to continue under the statutes of the World Anti-Doping Agency AMA – until the UCI of the World Association has completed the investigations. Sanctions were imposed on precedents by Italians Alessandro Petacchi (2008 / ten months suspension) and Diego Ulissi (2014 / nine months).

The winner of the series has been trying for months with the help of lawyers and medical professionals to increase his figures as of September 7, 2017 plausibly explain and rule out doping intentions. This concerns in particular the lawyers of a law firm based in London who tried unsuccessfully to purge in 2012 Doper Alberto Contador before the International Court of Justice (CAS).

Boonen was allowed to start

The Belgian had been taken several times with cocaine and should be restrained from the start. It did not work – this time it could be similar. The CNOFS Arbitration Court quashed Banbo's ban from participation nine years before the start of the tour.
