Scinto is a small fish compared to WTs, Riis, Andersen, Brailsford, JV, Martinelli, Lefevere etc etc all above Scinto in the firing line.

It ain't cool anymore to name JV among the pro-doping connection.

did you really believe they would publish them?
it's a wonder they have a website :D

I was stupid to believe a cycling news site like CN would publish a claim by a team and then not follow it up. What the team or its riders was going to do was pretty much irrelevant.

After some postponements, the first hearing took place this week. As a result, Citracca has been "indicted on charges of extortion against an athlete [Luca Wackermann] and attempted extortion against the athlete’s wife". Luca Scinto 'has been indicted for extortion with Citracca and for the receipt of stolen goods, with La Nazione reporting that he was in possession of papers stamped by the local health authority, “which he allegedly used to submit medical requests for performance-enhancing drugs”.' Davide Del Sarto, has been indicted "for attempted extortion with Citracca". The trial will start in May 2026.


Meanwhile, "Scinto and six riders from the Vini Zabù squad were acquitted of charges of doping during a race in Dubai due to the inadmissibility of the evidence, while the court in Pistoia has deemed that another doping charge falls under the jurisdiction of prosecutors in Forlì."

Edit: According to Tuttobiciweb, the rider sent to Forli is Liam Bertazzo, so the race in question is likely the 2018 Dubai and/or Sharjah Tour. The team did UAE Tour in 2020 as well, but without Bertazzo.
