important error in ‘contador damaged cycling’ article

i usually don’t bother but this error seems to distort the context and the main time line of the article too much (don’t know if it’s the reprint of le parisien's mistake but the cn should check these things. it's easy)

the Original cn article
http://www.cyclingnews.com/news/contador-has-damaged-cycling-says-mcquaid

The Spanish cycling federation has been investigating Contador's clenbuterol positive for almost four months now.

the actual time period is a little over 2 months as the uci passed the case to rfec only on 8 November

08.11.2010

Press release - The UCI requests the opening of disciplinary proceedings against Alberto Contador

if i can take 3 minutes to click my way to the proper facts, a cn writer should certainly be able to match it. If not in speed then in the results.
