The remaining Tour de France riders were cleared to continue racing ahead of Tuesday's Stage 10 after undergoing COVID-19 tests, but the Tour director tested positive and left the race. Less than two hours before the stage started, Tour organizers and cycling governing body the UCI said all of the riders' tests performed over the past two days returned negative. The four staff who tested positive work for Cofidis, AG2R La Mondiale, defending champion Egan Bernal's Inos Grenadiers and Mitchelton Scott, meaning those four squads were at greater risk of being excluded.
