The Tour de France races which took place between 1999 and 2005 will have no official winner, cycling's governing body has said.
The International Cycling Union (UCI) decided not to reallocate the seven yellow jerseys won by Lance Armstrong, after the American was stripped of his titles in the wake of a doping scandal.
It also ordered Armstrong to pay back prize money dating back to August 1, 1998.
The UCI justified its decision in a statement, saying that "a cloud of suspicion would remain hanging over this dark period".
"While this might appear harsh for those who rode clean, they would understand there was little honour to be gained in reallocating places," it said.
