“After careful review of this extensive report, the UCI strongly believes that it contains compelling grounds to refer the matter to the Licence Commission (2) and request the Astana Pro Team licence be withdrawn.The UCI considers that the ISSUL audit has, among other things, revealed a big difference between the policies and structures that the team presented to the Licence Commission in December and the reality on the ground.”
As much as it's a shame that some totally innocent riders (maybe even including Nibali) may end up sitting out 2015, I really do hope that this happens. The UCI need to draw a line in the sand. Hopefully Saxo-Tinkoff are next up.

Balls. It's done in another thread
Oddly I searched for Astana and nothing came up. Who'd have guessed there may be search problems eh? 😉
They'll be sorted when the new forum comes in 2008.
FWIW - Google is a vastly better search tool - just add "site:singletrackworld.com" to the end of any search.
