Vaughters: Overnight Tour testing could have halted past doping

EF Education-EasyPost manager Jonathan Vaughters defends night-time anti-doping tests at the Tour de France, arguing that testing at 2 a.m. or later could have exposed earlier doping and saved cycling's credibility, even if it disturbs riders' sleep; he notes the ITA sought judicial authorization for out-of-hours testing, says this approach would have prevented scandals like the Armstrong era, and emphasizes that today's riders are racing in a cleaner environment, with tests occurring at night alongside standard checks for riders who were tested but not accused.
