Lance Armstrong has said that he would probably dope again

Speaking to BBC Sports Editor Dan Roan, Armstrong, who currently has a life ban from cycling, said:"If I was racing in 2015, no, I wouldn't do it again because I don't think you have to.

"If you take me back to 1995, when doping was completely pervasive, I would probably do it again.

"When I made the decision, when my team made that decision, when the whole peloton made that decision, it was a bad decision and an imperfect time.

"But it happened. And I know what happened because of that. I know what happened to the sport, I saw its growth."

Armstrong is hopeful that he will get back the seven Tour De France wins which were taken off him by ASO following his revelations on the Oprah Winfrey Show in January 2013. These wins have not been re-allocated and the Texan said: "I think there has to be a winner, I'm just saying that as a fan.

"There's a huge block in World War One with no winners, and there's another block in World War Two, and then it seems like there's another world war.

"I don't think history is stupid, history rectifies a lot of things. If you ask me what happens in 50 years, I don't think it sits empty... I feel like I won those Tours."
