Fair use rationale for Image:Lequipelogo.gif

Image:Lequipelogo.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 04:11, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

Anyone else have the urge to tell their moronic writer Anne Giuntini to find a backbone and back it up with some brains? Out of all the world's journalists and writers I've spoken to, she is without doubt one of the most abrasive and least intelligent - and she covers Formula One of all sports. She would be far better off covering one of France's home grown sports, cared about by noone. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.201.27.185 (talk) 09:58, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:Dreyfus3.jpg

The image Image:Dreyfus3.jpg is used in this article under a claim of fair use, but it does not have an adequate explanation for why it meets the requirements for such images when used here. In particular, for each page the image is used on, it must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Please check

• That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for the use in this article.
• That this article is linked to from the image description page.

The Lance Armstrong case

I have removed the reference to Lance Armstrong and placed it below. I did it because there have been many substantial stories in L'Équipe over half a century and it seems incongruous to pick just this one.Les woodland (talk) 14:33, 28 November 2009 (UTC)les woodland

Main article: Allegations of drug use

On August 23, 2005, the newspaper accused Lance Armstrong of taking the performance-enhancing drug EPO during the 1999 Tour de France. Armstrong denied the claims, and the issue was investigated by the International Cycling Union.
