Been through every year of FDJ's existence and there doesn't appear to be a single rider who was ever on the team who raced before 2000, has the requisite flag, only missed the Giro of the GTs and didn't podium his respective NCRR. Are you sure you haven't accidentally put a yes instead of a no somewhere or vice versa?

This sort of arrogance should really lead to a ban ;)

Did he ever get knocked off the bike by Paolo Bettini during the final of a Giro stage?
