On the third day he took the maillot jaune of leadership and held it for a day, losing it to his team-mate Pascal Lino, who led for the next two weeks.
Virenque finished second in the polka dot jersey climbers' competition.
After the Tour de France Virenque joined another French team, Festina.
He stayed there until the team closed down after a doping scandal in 1998.
Virenque first wore the yellow jersey of the Tour de France in 1992 and for the last time in 2003.
In 2003 he wore the jersey on the climb of Alpe d'Huez.
Festina affair
In 1998 the Festina cycling team was disgraced by a doping scandal, known as the Festina affair.
Virenque's teammates, Christophe Moreau, Laurent Brochard and Armin Meier, admitted taking EPO after being arrested during the Tour and were disqualified.
Virenque said he was innocent.
Virenque changed teams to Team Polti in January 1999.
He rode the Giro d'Italia in 1999 and won a stage.
A few weeks later Virenque's name emerged in an inquiry into Bernard Sainz.
Sainz was later jailed for practising as an unqualified doctor.
Franco Polti, the head of Virenque's team, fined him 30 million lire.
Race director Jean-Marie Leblanc banned Virenque from the 1999 Tour de France.
He was made to let Virenque race by the Union Cycliste Internationale.
Leblanc said he hoped Virenque would not win.
Virenque rode on a bicycle painted white with red dots to resemble the polkadot jersey of best climber, but he didn't win the competition.
He had a bodyguard, Gilles Pagliuca.
In 1999 he wrote a book called Ma Vérité.
In the book he said he was innocent of doping.
He wrote that his team-mates confessed to using EPO because of pressure from the police.
He said Moreau's urine showed EPO had not been detected.
The Festina affair led to a trial in October 2000.
Virenque was a witness as well as others from the Festina team.
He at first denied he had doped himself but then confessed.
But he denied doping himself intentionally.
Virenque was criticised by the media and satirists for denying doping even though there was evidence.
He was also criticised for pretending he had been doped without his knowledge.
Virenque lived near Geneva in Switzerland and the Swiss cycling association suspended him for nine months.
The sentence was reduced by an independent tribunal to six and a half months.
He was fined the equivalent of 2,600 euros and told to pay 1,300 euros in costs.
He became depressed.
Post-suspension career

Domo kept him the following season.
On 25 October 2002 he signed for another two years.
Virenque returned to fame by winning Paris–Tours on 7 October 2001.
This was unusual because Paris–Tours is a flat race and sprinters usually win,  not climbers.
The French magazine, Vélo, called the victory "extraordinary."
L'Équipe 's headline on the front page was "Unbelievable!"
Virenque was beaten by Laurent Jalabert in the 2001 and 2002 Tour de France King of the Mountains competition.
He won his sixth polka dot jersey in 2003.
In 2004 he won the polka dot jersey for the seventh time.

Johann Heinrich Pestalozzi (12 January 1746 – 17 February 1827) was a Swiss pedagogue and educational reformer.
He was a humanist and romantic in his approach.
He founded several schools in German and French-speaking regions of Switzerland, and wrote explaining his principles of education.
His motto was "Learning by head, hand and heart".
In 1780 Pestalozzi published anonymously a series of aphorisms, entitled The Evening Hours of a Hermit.
They are his earliest works which outline ideas that would later be known as Pestalozzian.
He drew from these experiences and published four volumes of a story titled Leonard and Gertrude.
These four volumes are about the lives of four characters: Gertrude, Glüphi, an unnamed parish clergyman and Arner.
Gertrude is a wife and mother who teaches her children how to live moral upstanding lives.
Glüphi, a school teacher, sees the success Gertrude has with her children and tries to model his school around her teachings.
A parish clergyman also adopts Gertrude's teachings.
The work of Gertrude, Glüphi and the clergyman are helped by Arner, a politician, who gets help from the state.
Through these four, harmony is achieved and a comprehensive education is offered to all people.
His next endeavor, Enquiries into the course of nature in the development of the human race, was not so popular.
His education was built on the idea that all understanding can be achieved through a psychologically ordered sequence of learning.
Pestalozzi's method was used by the cantonal school in Aarau that Albert Einstein attended.
It has been credited with helping Einstein's process of visualizing problems and his use of thought experiments.
Einstein said of his education at Aarau: "it made me clearly realize how much superior an education based on free action and personal responsibility is to one relying on outward authority."
