Pedro Delgado

Cycling Disciplines

Pedro Delgado Robledo, known as Perico, is a Spanish former professional road bicycle racer. He won the 1988 Tour de France and the Vuelta a España in 1985 and 1989, and he finished in the top ten of eighteen Grand Tours. During the 1988 Tour he tested positive for the masking agent probenecid, which the International Olympic Committee had banned that January but the Union Cycliste Internationale had not yet banned, so he kept racing and was not charged with a doping offence. Since 1995 he has worked as a cycling commentator for Televisión Española, first alongside Pedro González and later alongside Carlos de Andrés.
