In 2016, Miguel Angel Lopez won the Tour de Suisse.

Colombian cyclist Miguel Angel Lopez has been suspended for a possible doping violation.

Specifically, it concerns “the use and possession of a prohibited substance in the weeks before the Giro d’Italia 2022”, as the International Cycling Union UCI explained. Lopez is provisionally suspended pending a final decision.

Miguel was the winner of the 2016 Tour de Suisse

In October last year, the Kazakh world tour team separated Astana from the Colombian after the cyclist allegedly collaborated with a doctor accused of trafficking in doping substances.
