Report: Hincapie, Leipheimer, Vande Velde, Zabriskie, Vaughters give evidence against Armstrong

Riders given six-month delayed ban by USADA

Four former teammates of Lance Armstrong will receive six month bans after they confessed to doping and testified against the seven-time Tour de France winner, according to De Telegraaf.

George Hincapie, Levi Leipheimer, Christian Vande Velde and David Zabriskie are said to have given evidence in the USADA investigation which has charged Armstrong with doping. All four riders are currently taking part in the Tour de France, but in recent weeks, USA Cycling revealed they opted not to be considered for the Olympic Games.

Today's report, which is front-page news, also names Garmin-Sharp boss Jonathan Vaughters. It is not clear whether Vaughters too will face suspension.

Ja ettei jää kenellekään epäselväksi: Armstrong oli oman aikakautensa ylivoimainen mestari. Aikoinaan ajajat olivat samalla lähtöviivalla niin kilpailuissa kuin muissakin asioissa. Ajat ja ajajat muuttuvat.
