Disqualifications
Below is an overview of riders that were disqualified by the jury in the Tour, Giro or Vuelta. Not included are riders that finished outside the time limit, or riders that were eliminated in years where there was a rule that the last rider in the general classification had to leave the race.
Riders that were pulled out by their teams are also not included. This happened for most riders caught using doping in the last twenty years.
If a rider was removed from the results because of a doping test in that specific race, I count him in this list. If his results were removed because of a doping test in a different race, I don't count it.
This overview is not complete (especially not for ancient races), but I did my best to get it as complete as I could reasonably do.
