[Closed] Drug testing in the Tour?

I heard that although they were testing every day, the TdF officials were not releasing any results until the end of the tour, so that we didn't get the same fiasco as last year. Is that right and does that mean there will be a massive carve-up in Paris where the bloke who thought he came 23rd, suddenly finds himself the winner after the guys above him are disqualified?

unlikely. the testers are approx 8 steps behind the dopers. So you might get the odd numpty caught, but most are too smart.
