cycling: Next round in the Cancellara case?! – UCI wants to investigate motor doping allegations

by

Cycling: The UCI wants to re-examine the motor doping allegations against Fabian Cancellara from 2010. At that time, the Swiss had dominated the spring classics. The reason for this is renewed allegations by former pro Phillip Gaimon in his book "Draft Animals: Living the Pro Cycling Dream".

Incoming President David Lappartient wants to address the coverage of Gaimon's recently published autobiography through the investigation. In his book, the American, who retired at the end of 2016 after a season with the WorldTour team Cannondale-Drapac, writes about Cancellara and makes clear allegations of motor doping. The Swiss did not comment on the incident and is considering the possibility of a lawsuit against Gaimon with his manager and his lawyers.

More than Florian Nowak

Florian Nowak is a professional cyclist at the EuropeTour level and has competed in many international races. At the German championship in 2017, he was the best non-WorldTour professional in 7th place and was therefore able to recommend himself for the Tour de L'Avenir and the World Championships. But he doesn't just feel comfortable on the racing bike, he's also always drawn to off-road terrain. In addition to sport, he works on his second mainstay and has completed his business administration studies at the LMU Munich.
