Tour de France threatens Pro Cycling Stats with legal action: “We’re getting too popular”

July 15, 2025

If you’ve watched professional cycling for long enough, there’s a high chance you’ve spotted the Pro Cycling Stats (PCS) campervan on television.

The team behind the online cycling results database follow races around Europe in their campervan with ‘PCS’ branding to connect with cycling teams and the general public. But the vehicle has been harder to spot at the 2025 Tour de France.

PCS said in a statement released earlier this month that Amaury Sport Organisation (ASO), organisers of the Tour de France, “more or less forced us to hide our PCS branding during every stage, from the publicity caravan to the broom wagon. It wasn’t our choice, but we had no option to comply to avoid legal trouble.” Bike Radar
