More than two months after French searched Nairo Quintana's hotel room during the Tour de France, his Arkéa-Samsic team manager Emmanuel Hubert says he still has no further information on the inquiry.

Investigators from the Central Office for the Fight against Threats to Environmental and Public Health (OCLAESP) searched Quintana and his brother Dayer's room in a hotel near Méribel after stage 17, along with the room of Winner Anacona and the team's soigneurs and the Arkéa-Samsic team cars.
