1997 Tour Champion Jan Ullrich Retires
Adjust font size:

Former Tour de France champion Jan Ullrich announced his retirement from competitive cycling on Monday, eight months after his career was put on hold by a doping investigation.

The 33-year-old German, who won the sport's most prestigious race in 1997, said at a presentation in Hamburg he would work as an adviser to the small Austrian Volksbank team.

"I will continue my involvement in cycling but I'm ending my active career as a professional cyclist," said Ullrich, who has strongly denied any involvement in doping.

"I couldn't live without cycling. It's my passion and my life."

Ullrich was withdrawn from the T-Mobile team before last year's Tour de France after being linked with the Operation Puerta doping investigation in Spain.

He was suspended and then dropped by his team despite his insistence he was not involved.

Since then Ullrich has been without a professional team, although he has not been charged with a doping offence.

He also won the 1999 Tour of Spain and two medals at the 2000 Sydney Olympics, gold in the road race and silver in the time trial.

Ullrich was 23 when he won the 1997 Tour and many predicted he would go on to dominate the sport in the manner of five-times champion Miguel Indurain, whose reign had ended the previous year.

Ullrich was unfortunate to spend most of his career trying to catch seven-times winner Lance Armstrong. The German finished second to the American in 2000, 2001 and 2003 and claimed third place in 2005.
