Jarlinson Pantano Gómez (born 19 November 1988) is a Colombian racing cyclist, who rides for Colombian amateur team Nu Colombia. Pantano previously rode professionally between 2012 and 2019 for the Jamis–Hagens Berman, IAM Cycling and Trek–Segafredo teams, before he was suspended for four years after testing positive for erythropoietin (EPO).

Career

He competed in the 2014 Giro d'Italia. In December 2014 he was announced as part of the squad for the IAM Cycling team for 2015. He raced in the 2015 Tour de France, finishing in 19th place. Pantano was the winner of the fifteenth stage of the 2016 Tour de France, on a mountain stage across the Grand Colombier, from Bourg-en-Bresse to Culoz.

In July 2016 he replaced Nairo Quintana for selection in the individual road race at the Rio de Janeiro Olympics.

In 2016, he signed a two-year contract with Trek–Segafredo for the 2017 and 2018 seasons. Pantano agreed a two-year extension of his contract in 2018, through 2020.

Adverse analytical finding and doping ban

In April 2019, Trek–Segafredo announced that Pantano had been 'immediately suspended' from the team after being notified that he had returned an adverse analytical finding (AAF) for erythropoietin (EPO) in a doping test carried out on 26 February. As a result of the AAF, he was provisionally suspended from the sport by the UCI, the sport's international governing body. In June 2019, he announced his retirement from professional racing.

In May 2020, a UCI tribunal banned Pantano for four years, backdated to his initial provisional suspension, meaning he was unable to compete until April 2023. Upon the completion of his ban, Pantano returned to the peloton – at amateur level – with Colombian team EPM–Scott.
